emerald tyke Posted August 21, 2012 Report Share Posted August 21, 2012 tent for me at lavernock point (marconi campsite) £10 a night and last year taxi was £5 a person organised by the campsite. going on thursday this year and make long weekend of it. can you watch the practice on friday does anyone know. Don't envy you with the weather forecast for this weekend....unfortunate mind you we camped at the Isle of Man TT this year and it actually added to the experience, (singing in the tents etc as couldnt sit outside ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tsunami Posted August 22, 2012 Report Share Posted August 22, 2012 Price at the Holiday Inn Cardiff for one night 25/26 August for a double room £225 Price at the Holiday Inn Cardiff for one night 1/2 Sept (the next weekend) £88 We used to stay there till a couple of years ago when they raised the price from £87 to £155 the following year, and then proceed to take out the whole amount for the two of us before i could cancel. Guess what, it was in the small print so never been back since. Now stay in Halls at the Uni for about £25 a head per night, in a party of 40 from Newcastle. Incidently, with Walkabout being refurbished this weekend, where is the 'scene' that everyone is going to instead. Any local got any tips where to go.

SCB Posted August 22, 2012 Report Share Posted August 22, 2012 Incidently, with Walkabout being refurbished this weekend, where is the 'scene' that everyone is going to instead. Any local got any tips where to go. As I posted elsewhere, if people like Walkabout then O'Neils is a decent enough replacement. Keep walking up the street from Walkabout (heading up towards the stadium), cross the road and O'Neils is there to your left. It's opposite the Prince of Wales (Wetherspoons) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCB Posted August 23, 2012 Report Share Posted August 23, 2012 (edited) Price at the Holiday Inn Cardiff for one night 25/26 August for a double room £225 Price at the Holiday Inn Cardiff for one night 1/2 Sept (the next weekend) £88 Obviously the cricket and the SGP on the 25/26 is more popular than the Mardi Gras/Gay pride and the Harbour Festival. If you fancy socialising with the gays and the sailors thought I'm sure the hotels would welcome your £88. I've even got a sailers outfit that you can borrow, bit fo a result as it can be worn to both! I bet Sept 22/23 is expensive though, it's the annual cheese festival!

HasseHolmqvist Posted August 23, 2012 Report Share Posted August 23, 2012 So was the camper van free then? No but its the same as your car (if you have one) my everyday transport & of course serves many other purpose over the year as well as holidays .... like stopping me getting ripped off by greedy hotel/b&b owners Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BossMan Posted August 24, 2012 Report Share Posted August 24, 2012 I may have a B&B for Saturday night available - 1 x twin @ £40.00 each? Heading down early tomorrow so i'll check my PM's before I go if anyone is interested. Not 100% available at the moment but a good 90% Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Long queue's down to the toilets as someone was having it off in one of them. Any names or confessions from anyone.

Plenty of speedway riders in there (sorry Trees), could've been either of those. No sign of Mickey Dyer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
