It only takes a few minutes, and joining will let you post your thoughts and opinions on all things Mariners, Football, and whatever else pops into your mind. If posting is not your thing, you can interact in other ways, including voting on polls, and unlock options only available to community members.

    ccmfans.net is not only for Mariners fans either. Most of us are bonded by our support for the Mariners, but if you are a fan of another club (except the Scum, come on, we need some standards), feel free to join and get into some banter.

may need a car though

Yeah, am getting one for the 3 days.  Was thinking of going to Nice then making my way back up to Milan via Genoa, stay in Milan the last night then back to Turin for my evening flight.

you have to drive the cinque terre coast if you can

oh, and look out for gold selling 6ft+ africans on nice foreshore

took every bit of nerve and courage to say no
Could even walk the Cinque Terra Coast. It is so so beautiful.

Has anyone else noticed that if it rains in Newcastle CBD, the place just stinks of sewage?

It really does, was bloody awful today.

For a city with wall to wall Labor MP's (and a cabinet minister to boot) the place is an absolute disgrace - maybe the scum should vote Libs next time just to scare them into funding the CBD and some transport.

Jody McKays office is in the heart of it so she cant claim not to notice the decay and utter crappiness that surrounds her.

Some amazing buildings just crying out for regeneration but no one seems willing to pump in any money. Shame, could be a brilliant area if someone actually did something

It would need a population transplant first FFC.

No point wasting all that dough on common filth.

I got my leave approved for my Europe trip over Christmas. I'll be meeting family members from England and Ireland, and doing some charity work whilst over there. Oh, and hoping to see a Chelsea game :)

Work is epic. I've never been this happy at a job, and I really hope it stays this awesome.

Oh, and Autumn is lame already.

My aunt and uncle lived just off Beaumont Street when the earthquake hit. Was on the phone to them when it happened. Pretty scary stuff at the time. They were OK, but their lovely old federation home took a lot of structural damage. Took a long time to fix up, but looks great now. Have to agree that Newcastle has some great buildings, and I am very fond of the Beaumont Street area. The natives are quite friendly in that part of town. The rest are a bit of a worry. :)

You'll love it. Enjoy the experience and have a great time. Getting a bit jealous of all these people flying off to nether regions...

My pish is boring. Had to take leave at the end of July last year, and looks like it may extend to another 3 or 4 months. So I'm doing a Serious and taking a Uni course by distance. Went to Orientation last week and I swear I was the oldest one there. Semester started yesterday. Must get motivated and do some work on it today. Thank god for online uni services.  ... like I said ....zzzzzzzzzzzzz

LOL ... I'm a white skinned celtic type so it suited me perfectly..... can be quite good if the timing is right. Had a couple of good hols around the Mediterranean years ago, but I think I was just  lucky. You'll enjoy it, whatever the weather!

World Class on FIFA 10 is shitting me to tears, no Centre-Half is as fast as this game makes out someone like Rio to be.
