Just kidding, but that's probably the response you'll get if you ask most people. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ameritoon Posted September 9, 2014 Share Posted September 9, 2014 The Globe usually gets the most Newcastle fans, but SmallBar and AJ Hudson's are good too. Not sure on a Scottish bar, there's probably 100 Irish pubs around, but I'm sure if you look online you'll find some. FYI, all these things are on the northside, so it'll be a bit of a trek for you from Hyde Park. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miercoles Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 Have a roommate that gets NBCSports but charges you a flat fee for rent/utilities. Man I am on comcast and their coverage has been fucking AWFUL. The on-demand games lives often aren't available, and NONE of them are available archived on demand. Then you go on the nbcsports website to watch an archived game and on the screen where you pick which game you want they show all the scores!! It's a million 's all at once.

Guest zicomartin Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 Brighthouse Networks (cable TV) in the Tampa / Orlando areas of Florida have 6 channels of NBCsn dedicated to all the premier league games broadcast simultaneously that day. The other cable networks provide just one game on TV at any given time and put the others on the internet. So, if you are looking to watch the games on Brighthouse Networks, look out for the featured game on channels 26 and 1152 (NBCsn) and channels 1851 to 1855 for the other 5 games. Obviously, if the bar you are watching in has another cable provider, such as Verizon, you may have trouble getting anything but the NBCsn featured game.

Humm I have to get back for the NASCAR on the Sunday and have loads of tickets booked for some NBA, NFL etc. Whats the most cost effective way of getting down there? Cheapest = drive. But its like 3.5 hours with no traffic and you'll obviously have to pay for gas. You could take a train, but its not effecient and will take 6-8 hours due to stops and such (the Direct/Express trains on FL east coast are something being planned/worked on). Or you could fly, which would be quickest/most expensive. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

afar Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 I miss Orlando, lived there for 4 years around the turn of the millennium. My absolute favourite place I have ever lived, and I've been about a bit. It's our vacation spot of choice now, but we've been expanding our family and building a new home so not got down there in a few years. When I retire I plan to spend 6 months a year there and return to Canada for the summers. Are house prices still ridiculously cheap ? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

My absolute favourite place I have ever lived, and I've been about a bit.

When I retire I plan to spend 6 months a year there and return to Canada for the summers. Are house prices still ridiculously cheap ? Relatively speaking, no depends how much monies you got and what is "cheap" to you. Well going back to around 2000, my friend bought this single family home, I would say around 2,500 square foot, with garage and a pool for $150k in the Orlando area. I spoke to him a few years ago about it and because of the economy, it wasn't worth a whole lot more, maybe $200k. We are having a home built right now in Calgary, that is pretty similar in size, in a similar type of community but without the pool (because this is Canada ) and it's costing us close to $700k and that's cheap for here for a house of that size. So my plan when I retire was to downsize to an apartment here and buy an apartment in Orlando or a gulf coast location from the money we make selling our family home, in today's market an 2 bed apartment in Calgary would cost around $250k,so that would leave me with plenty of money in today's market to buy the Florida apartment, unless the prices have shot up. If so then I may need to look at some other cheaper warm place to spend the winters, I don't I will be able to cope with them when I'm 65 and older, I'm struggling right now in my mid 40's Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
