We're do we start well

Its a river

It's got a lot of bridges

Fish love it

It used to have a night club

It goes from the sea to in land

Boats float on it


seriously what is the Talk of the Tyne a comedy club or something

[mikey78]

Just got an email to say someone replied to this post!

Well. Talk of the Tyne was a night club owned by the Comedian Bobby Patterson (i'm sure it was). It was next to the metro station at Gateshead but has since been knocked down and is now a piece of grass. Only drinks in plastic glasses there mind haha.

It was at the top of the bank from TSB now lloyds, it was some place lots of fighting and it was only plastic glasses and was the sort of place were the lasses were after you with only one thing on there mind i went through a phase of going there and the Coconut club what the HECK any way i got through it and i'm here to tell the tale.

Do we have some of Tynesides hardest on this site or something these places where well tough and you didn't go there unless with some locals from the Chandless estate. Never been and had it not been for any of the earlier posts i would have expected them to be still buzzing away to the sound of MONKEY music

Is what i thought this pthread was all about, the place was a hell hole full of wrong uns and lets be honest they have doomed its repalcement by calling it village heights i mean when you get rid of a place like that surely you want to break all ties.Don't ya

Is just as bad as the place it replaced i mean surely they could have thought up a totally new name for this god forsaken site it just links the place back 30 years.
