Members Bus to South North - August 5th

My first year as a member and am considering using it rather than driving to Heworth and getting the Metro.

Anyone used it before? A good or a bad thing?
 

We drive, booked parking through justpark / yourparkingspace and managed to get a spot in the flats at the corner of the ground last couple years. Bloke was happy to give us it for free this year :lol:
 
Anyone considering using this in the future, I'd recommend it. Left at 8.50 and arrived in Gosforth about 9.25 so was at the front of the queue for entry. Plenty of time to get breakfast in the High Street after nabbing a good spot. Left at 6.15 ish and was back at Riverside by 6.45.

£6. I was going to do my usual drive to Heworth and Metro in but there was a closure. Although not affecting the Heworth - Gosforth section, I couldn't be arsed taking into consideration the potential disruptions caused by the wind yesterday.
