I have only just moved to Chester Le Street and have absolutely no idea where exactly to go that I would like in Chester Le Street. Does anyone know good bars and pubs to go to? My birthday is coming up and I have no idea where exactly would be good to be honest. I like places that have good music in and fairly decent drink prices. With my Birthday night out being on a thursday also I have no idea what thursday would be like in Chester Le Street town centre. When I have been out in Sunderland (Where I used to live) I would go to places like Flares, vision, pzazz when it was there and yates. Does anyone know good places for to go on a thursday night in Chester Le Street?

Wondering what B&Bs are nice in Chester Le Street to stay? I've been looking at Low Urpeth Farm, The Lambton Worm and the Blackhorse Inn, are any of them decent? Is Low Urpeth Farm miles outside the town?

We'll be stopping in Durham for the night en route from York to Edinburgh. Any recommendations for hotels/B&Bs for Durham?

Is there anything worth checking out in the town? If not, probably it's better to stop for the night somewhere outside the town near the highway. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I am coming to Darlington to do some work and my housing has just fallen through. Any suggestions on affordable accommodation in or near Darlington? By affordable, I mean very affordable (I'm a grad student and the work I'm doing is on my dime). I leave next week so any help is VERY appreciated. Many, many thanks.

Is the Cathedral open for tours in December? What else should be on my 'must see' list. I heard I shouldn't bother with the castle - true?

I will be making a quick stop in Durham on my way from Edinburgh to York. Is there a place to store my luggage for the day?

Thanks

How do you find living in Darlington...??? I am currently living in Northampton, but am considering moving to Darlington, and I just wondered what it was like as a general place... Are the people friendly, and whats the nightlife like???

I'm planning a reunion here in the summer and as we are all coming from different locations wanted to suggest a good pub to meet in when we arrive.

Can anyone recommend a good traditional pub in the heart of durham (or somewhere that is easy to find) Many thanks Ruthy
