New York V Newcastle - A Comparison

Ive been in the 'Big Apple' for seven days now, so I think it's fair to say I've hada fair taste of the place and am prepared to compare it with back home.

New York / Newcastle

Yellow Cabs that drive badly - Black taxis that drive badly
The Statue of Liberty - The Angel of the North
Metropolitan Museum - Laing Art Gallery
MOMA - The Baltic
Carnegie Hall - The Sage
Chinatown - Chinatown
Little Italy - Dean Street
Times Square - The Monument
City Hall - The Civic Centre
Central Park - The Town Moor
Yankee Stadium - St James' Park
Empire State Building - Greys Monument
Hudson River - River Tyne
Smelly Subway - Smelly Metro
United Nations - Westgate Road
Coney Island - The Spanish City
Deli Sandwich - Greggs Pasty
Brooklyn Bridge - Tyne Bridge
Ugly big buildings - The Byker Wall
Rubbish Beer - Brown Ale
Canny people - Canny people

See what a mean lyke, It's just Newcastle with a funny accent really.
