Cardiff Saturday 9th July 2016


Recommended Posts

Four of us travelled down on Thursday and had a stopover in Walsall in the Vilage Hotel, after breakfast had a leisurely drive in to Cardiff and checked in to our hotel .

Went for lunch then went to the practice at the stadium for half an hour.

Back to the hotel to freshen up then out for a meal and drinks with ten other people.

Saturday morning pleasant walk in the Park then on to the Fanzone (not that impressed really ?), back to the Stadium for a Pit walk then time for lunch and a couple of pints!

Into the Stadium at about 16:30 hrs, great action and presentation, left the stadium about 20:20 hrs to go for a couple of pints.....said i would never go back in Walkabout but ended up back there but i did refuse to pay to get in!!

Up early Sunday morning for breakfast had headed back north at 10:00hrs.

 

Great weekend but expensive, will i be back next year.....undecided at the moment.

Certainly not , Kenny of course was always fiercely patriotic and would never have dreamt of not riding in the British final , or not riding in the British Leagues .

It was a play on words, an attempt to be sarcastic.

You make a raw ,hard hitting,blunt statement

I try to make out you have used softer (sugar coating) language to swerve the issue when in reality you haven't.

Think that's it

 

Ok, my bad, jumped on it a bit hard there. I misread it as you defending his actions.

Apologies.

.....said i would never go back in Walkabout but ended up back there but i did refuse to pay to get in!!.

This is what amazes me. Cardiff has MANY great clubs, I'd stick Walkabout right down towards the bottom. I think it's sums up speedway fans that they all seem to congregate there. Cheap, no-thrills, a bit crap and run down. You only have to walk single figure minutes to numerous better places.

 

(and guess where I ended up Friday night!!)

Is there much to do around West Ham's stadium I wonder?....

 

Plenty to do in Stratford and Hackney Wick. It would be interesting to know just how far out the extended roof comes now. That said, I can't see that BSI would take a risk on putting a temporary track in without full cover in the British climate.

Does anyone know why the charge of £1 to get intto the upstairs room beside the stadium with programmes ect for sale

 

was it for the Ben fund ?

 

You're obsessed with not 1 but 2 things....Tai and the Ben Fund. If only you were an ex rider we'd understand but wet dreams don't count :rofl:

 

On a more serious note, change the damn record.
