Couple of updates... thanks for Skyscrapercity and everyone who takes the pictures.

Keel Square - http://www.skyscrapercity.com/showthread.php?t=1710912&page=8

Seaburn - http://www.skyscrapercity.com/showthread.php?t=1080075&page=18

When on the 56 earlier, it went along St Mary's, the road looks complete now, with just the square needing completion, i can see a few more nights the road will be closed, for tarmacing and opening bus shelters, and of course moving the barriers etc... Expected completion is now January....

Damn! I love That's Entertainment. It seems like it has shut as Sunderland no longer appears on the website.

Interestingly South Shields now appears on their website, lets just hope it doesn't go the way of Newcastle and Sunderland branches.

Yeah, there was a good selection of ales, bombs and ciders. There was a warm fire (which came in handy as we sat near to the door), the punters were friendly and had quite a bit of banter. The doormen were alright as well Big Grin

. Seems like a place to go to before you hit other bars/clubs later on in the night.

Was working through that way when the brewery closed. The pub which was built into the site was great for quiet pints.
The beer wasn't fantastic with it being Vaux, but was a lovely little place.
