Welsh Gold


Well they might look like a couple of effete cyclists preparing for the next tour-de-france, but no its the new Welsh 'change' strip. Hmmm..... can't see them selling too many of those out of the Millenium Stadium shop. Certainly not on the back of a very dodgy performance last night.

But, all was not lost! I met up with brother (Ed) and nephew (Rob) and 58,997 others to see the match and have a few beers afterwards. This was a belated 50th birthday celebration for Ed. We once again marvelled at the Millenium Stadium, it is a great venue and all the better for being right in the city centre. Even the dodgy pitch is a bit better than it was originally.

After the match despite it being a Friday night we managed to find a relatively quiet and cosy pub that didn't play pumping drum and bass or have too many neon lights and sold something other than bottled beers and alchopops (i.e. it let in over 40's!). A good time was had by all.

It appears that Rob is perhaps the only person to regularly read this blog so (as they say on Radio One) a big shout out to Rob! Oh, and Rob, follow this link to read about that incident at a US baseball stadium I was telling you about. Very funny (first seen on Rich's blog at http://allhale.blogspot.com - which is always worth a read)
