I was there with my son who used to be a regular Long Eaton supporter but hasn't been to speedway (apart from one meeting at Stoke last year, in 8 years), & a mate who has never been to a speedway meeting in his life, & their comments were as follows:
Pre meeting atmosphere in Cardiff:
Son: "Beer, fit birds, fantastic, your round dad."
1st time mate: "'kin 'ell, I've never seen anything like this in Cardiff before, (he lives in Wales), fantastic".
Programme:
Son: "Phwoorrr, look at the t*ts on that" (page 22).
1st time mate: "Phwoorrr, look at the t*ts on that" (page 22).
Bjorn again:
Son: "That blondes got a nice ar*e"
1st time mate: "Have you seen the ar*e on the blonde one?"
Presentation:
Son: "Bloody 'ell, can you imagine mum trying to park that bugger?"
1st time mate: "Who's the bird doing the introductions?"
Racing:
Son: "Fantastic. When are you going to take me up to Sheffield so I can have a go?"
1st time mate: "Fantastic, I could get in to this big time".
Interval:
Son: "Beer".
1st time mate: " Beer".
Firework display:
Son: "I'm a firestarter, twisted fire starter, aaaaaaaa uh uh uh,.... fancy a beer?"
1st time mate: "That was good".
After meeting entertainment in Cardiff:
Son: " Bloody 'ell, I've never seen so many fit birds, I'm going to bring Becki (his girlfriend) here for a weekend, fantastic................Jesus dad, look at the t*ts on that".
1st time mate: "That was fantastic, absolutely fantastic".
Next morning:
Son: "Bloody 'ell, what time is it? Hang on while I have a quick sh*t shave & shower then I'll be down for breakfast".
1st time mate: (Meeting up again the next morning) "I had a fantastic time last night, I never thought speedway was was as exciting as that. I've been to concerts before at the Millenium stadium, but last night was awesome, absolutely fantastic".
So all in all a brilliant weekend. Sorry if I didn't say hello at the POW, but I'm a bit on the quite side. Roll on 2006.
