Sloop 0 Posted May 7, 2003 I've probably left it too late to get B&B for us unless you know somewhere there is vacancies in Cardiff / Newport that doesn't cost the earth. I know it's really on the wrong side of Cardiff if travelling from this part of the World, (about 20 miles west) but have you tried Bridgend ? I managed to get booked in there only recently.

BTL 0 Posted May 8, 2003 Sorry BTL, don't know of anywhere cheap that's still available. I managed to get a good deal in the Holiday Inn Cardiff, but even it wasn't cheap Which one is it - the Holiday Inn Centre or North? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Robbo 0 Posted May 10, 2003 The Celtic Manor hotel is a very very nice and is 5 star.Im sure you would be able to get in there as its probably not cheap and is only about a 5-10 minute drive away from my house. If you cant get anywhere in Newport try Cwmbrawn which is about 15 minutes away. Anyone wanna come for a party at my house after Newport-Glasgow match :-o Robbo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BTL 0 Posted May 12, 2003 Anyone wanna come for a party at my house after Newport-Glasgow match :-o Robbo Are you insane there will be a lot of marauding Scots both East and West there that night! I assume you've seen Braveheart - you know the bit about York etc, etc. (I might even get the kilt and woad on! - there the resemblance to Mel Gibson ends.) But wait a minute we'll be in Wales so that's OK boyoh! Thanks for the info- but thanks to the Great God John Todd of Sheffield I managed to get his accommodation 'cos he couldn't go. See ya all on Friday at Newport and at GP! PS Lioness still haven't told the we'an yet - amn't I a bad b+++++r Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
