So how do I get from Newcastle to Sunderland at 2.23am on an April morning?
I'm going to see Black Wire in Leeds, THERE IS NO OTHER WAY. And I DON'T miss the last train from Leeds, and I change at York so I get first class at least some of the way back. However, getting into Newcastle three hours after the last metro to Sunderland has left and approximately three and a bit hours before the first one leaves, leaves me in a bit of a dilemma.
Unlike some (AMY) I would NEVER ask my parents to pick me up from even the end of my street at that time of the morning. I mean, for one, it's a weekday so they'll be at work in the morning. I wouldn't ask them to pick me up in Leeds, same reason. I can't afford a Travelodge or anything like that (don't be silly now) and I categorically refuse to sleep in the station. I don't think the people on the door at Warehouse would take too kindly to me bringing a sleeping bag in. I doubt I could afford a taxi and I doubt how far they'd go.
I'm screwed, aren't I? I think the taxi is my best bet at the moment. And I'd have to save up like hell just for that…and I fancy a Black Wire t-shirt.
Oh shit, oh shit, I am screwed, parents aren't going to let me go to Leeds, I can't go in Newcastle, I haven't seen Black Wire since last June…oh shit….AND I REALLY WANT TO GO!
This isn't fair. It's not. I know the metro runs past residental areas, drivers might not want to do night shifts, blah blah blah…still, why can't they run through the night?
why can’t you go at newcastle?

It’s at Digital/The Other Rooms, one of the two, and obviously they’re both over 18…I’m only a few months off but I don’t really want to risk it.

THERE! Ta for that.
(I can't resist the lure of seeing them two days in a row though…)
