THE Friday Boys are a disparate group of men spread across Tyneside who meet once a week - 'always on a Friday' - to talk about the arts, raise a glass to recently departed heroes and villains and, at the evening's end, down a whisky or two. The FBs have only one golden rule - talk of the working week is strictly off-limit.
The Cottage - the post-show drinking venue for the guests and hosts on The Tube, those many years ago. The pre-Riverside drinking venue for those heading off to see some good, bad or indifferent music act.

The Barley Mow was turned into a shithole many years ago and, for all I know, may not exist in any way, shape or form.
What are they going to put in its place?
I thought they were talking about Terry!
