      If that's when the parade and shenanigans are then I shall see you there!

      Hearing it's on the 18th mate, so will be there, arriving from Newcastle 18th morning, then chilling in Liverpool for a week after.

      I've found a BnB in Hoylake right next to the train station for £150 from the Saturday to the Tuesday.

      Not far from me on Saughall Massie, mate. If you're about on the Monday when the madness has settled a bit we'll do something.

      Ok so starting to plan stuff now and you guys know me, I'm F***ing hopeless when it comes to this sh*t. Wish you were with me Crocuhie!!!

      So I arrive Manchester airport 15/5/2020 at approx 7:15 pm....then need to make my way (thinking by train) to Ibis budget Manchester Centre, Pollard Street. (approx 4 pounds)

      Depart the next morning 16/5/20 to Newcastle Central railway station by train FROM Manchester Piccadilly Station. (approx 76 Pounds)

      Arrive Newcastle, same date, some 2.5 hours later, then a 4 minute walk to Sleeperz Hotel AT 15 Westgate St, Newcastle

      DUMP BAGS IN ROOM AND BOLT TO THE GROUND TO SEE IF I CAN SCORE ANY SORT OF TICKETS FOR ME AND CROUCHIE

      Depart Newcastle 18th May approx 9am, the earlier the better.

      Arrive Liverpool around Midday 18/5/20 ( now I don't know what station to go to, if my Hotel is The Tune Hotel at 13-19 Queens Building, Liverpool L2 ( HELP OR SUGGESTIONS APPRECIATED PLEASE)   Approx 85 Pounds.

      In Liverpool till the 25th, flight home out of Manchester is at 9.50am so guessing will have to be there at least 3 hours early so if I book a train out of a (suggested Liverpool train station, any help again pls), will probably need to leave Hotel for 6.15 am train, getting into Manc Airport at 7.32am ...2 hours b4 flight. Will already be checked in beforehand, just need to put a suitcase through. Would that give me enough time for a 9.50am Departure? Approx 15-16 pounds is the cost.

      Does this all sound right or have I fu**ed up my whole planning? Was just doing it on Google maps and trying to figure out best train stations closest to my hotels that I have booked.


      Thinking of doing all this by a link one of you guys, think it was Stuey, for the National rail UK.

       http://nationalrail.co.uk.

      Would this be the best and cheapest site to book all the Train trips I have planned? Do i have to be a UK Citizen to book these train rides? Do u suggest pre booking from Australia or just go over there and do it on the spot, at the time?

      Thanks in advance to anyone that can help, a most likely, lost Aussie, out!!!


      Cheers

      Maybe a little cheaper to do Manchester to Newcastle as a return, about £82, and possibly do Manchester Piccadilly to Liverpool as a return as well, but singles could well be cheaper, especially taking into account your travelling to the airport at the end leg.

      National Rail site will probably redirect you to another site to book tickets

      Should be able to arrange pick up of your tickets from Manchester Piccadilly self service machines, except of course the Airport to Picadilly leg.

      Going to need to wait a few days to book though,  as tickets only available up to 23rd May at the moment.

      If you were/are willing to go a little slower and if the times work for you, Manchester-Newcastle then Newcastle-Liverpool would be about £12-13 via Megabus.

      Funnily enough planned on staying at that Ibis in Pollard St a few months back when me & my girlfriend got a late flight back to Manchester and had no way of getting back to Liverpool until the next day. Luckily the flight was delayed so we managed to jump a train back in the end, but from what I remember it's just by Piccadilly Gardens so a train from Manchester Airport to Manchester Piccadilly will get you there no problem

      In terms of stations for your hotel in Liverpool any station in the City Centre will be sound - If your hotel is on Castle St I think the closest will be Moorfields Station but if your train let's you out at Lime St, James St or Central Station you'll be fine as they're all in the city centre and are all only about a 10 minute walk from where you're staying. Really nice area Castle St, bit pricey but there's some good bars & restaurants around there.

      For getting to Liverpool from Newcastle Transpennine express (a train company who operates that route) had a £1 sale on last week but I think you may have just missed out! As Roddenberry said if you don't mind an extra hour or two travelling you can get a Megabus & save yourself a few quid. National Express are another coach company who are really good - Coaches are comfy with plenty of legroom etc (I've done 6/7 hour journeys in the past to Glastonbury & London on them no problem) so they're worth checking out - could probably do Newcastle to Liverpool for less than £10

      EDIT: Just checked - Manchester to Newcastle is £5 on National Express (4hr Journey - Leave 8AM arrive 12PM) & Newcastle to Liverpool is £11 (5hr 50m journey 6.40AM - 12.30AM)

      So £150+ savings for the beer bank if you don't mind a couple hours extra travelling!

      Also - National Express coaches drop you off at Liverpool One Bus Station - about 5 minutes from Castle St where you'll be staying

      Actually Oz, you will have to change when you get to Lime St from Newcastle you wil have to change to get to a station thats not far on foot so maybe walk it from Lime St. I'll be around if you want me to meet you out of the station, get you to the hotel and then to a decent boozer.

      Mad prices there mate.  Think it's about 15 quid Newcastle to Carlisle (single) and about 15 quid Carlisle to Liverpool if you book in advance!  Probably not much difference in time either.
