  1. Is the Cardiff photo of White City or Penarth Stadium?
  2. I can see the advantage pricewise of an out of town hotel, but the disadvantages far outweigh the price difference in my opinion. I'd quite like to return to the hotel to freshen up, change clothes and have a "lie down" . And after all that at the end of a very long day, a five minute walk (10 minute stagger) back to your bed, rather than a rip off taxi ride to Newport or a 2 mile queue for the train. Thanks, but I'd rather spend a little more and have the convenience of a city centre hotel , especially since stopping smoking is saving me around £30 a week, more than ample to pay for hotels, GP tickets, food and drink for the entire weekend.
  3. Couldn't get free entry to the Millennium Stadium?
  4. I managed to book the last available room last night at 10pm in the same hotel we stayed at on Saturday, 10 minutes walk from the stadium, so well pleased.
  5. I'm surprised you remember seeing as you've been skiving off for so long
  6. I don't know what you mean DB..I merely meant that I tend to move about in bed a lot due to this bad back I've got from carrying loaded mail bags 5 days a week
  7. I just phoned and secured the last room in the Big Sleep Hotel where we stayed on Saturday. I read some poor reviews on an internet site, but to be honest we found it ok. The only problems we encountered were the lack of parking (the reduced rate at the NCP next door solved that) and the creaky beds, although again that wasn't a problem for us, only the neighbours Looking forward to it already
  8. I heard a rumour he's down to ref the final GP in Germany, including the Super Prix final. $120,000 riding on the decision of this man.
  9. I wasn't booing him either. The ref was clearly to blame for the exclusions. All the Poles around me were booing him. Does that mean he's thinking about not riding in Poland?
  10. I have a programme from every speedway meeting I've been to since my first in 1985. I'm gonna have to spend £8+ to buy one
  11. Oh dear. We had a guy who was off sick for 9 months..came back for a week just before Christmas and hasn't been seen since. Someone said they saw him recently and it looks like he's put on about 5 stone!!
  12. I can't STAND em...Jellied eels AND Chas 'n Dave!!!
  13. I do..every day when my alarm goes off at 5am!!
  14. Problem solved for me, I gave up smoking 11 weeks ago
  15. FINALLY secured a hotel roon in the City centre for the Saturday night, so we don't have to sleep in the car now
  16. 100% correct. B4E just mentioned Andrew Tully. He looked fantastic at Rye. Couldn't he have taken Roynons place?
  17. Large ball park for the kids next door Sue, so you can leave them there while you wander around the museum.
