The overnight winter ferry crossing from Newcastle to Oslo made for some of the funniest disco dancing, with shitfaced passengers trying to stay upright (until they copped off) on a darkened dancefloor in strobe lighting.
It was from my home town, North Shields, to Oslo. Lots of Norgies would come for a weekend to North Shields for the cheap drink and lively pubs. It was cheap compared to Norway.
