SCB 0 Posted May 19, 2008 (edited) I'm going to Cardiff!! ...as Forum folk seem (as has been said on here) to meet at the Prince of Wales in Queen Street, if I arrive there how will I know you all? Perhaps you could all wear a red rose and hold a copy of the Daily Telegraph? Just look for a bunch of freaks and misfits, avoid them and cme and say hi to us normal people Or just walk up to someone outside the POW and aks "are you on the BSF?", if you get an odd look pretend to be drunk, if not, you've found us (or someone else equally as lost). Staying at The Penyrheol Guest House, Newport Road, Rumney, Cardiff (anyone heard of it) about 15 mins bus ride from Cardiff Central, travelling down by National Express Coach early Saturday morning to guest house about 11:30 straight back to Cardiff about 1:00 really looking forward to the day. Seats are in L15 on the 4th bend, do you get a good view? There many worse places to stay. It's less than 15 minutes on the bus too I'm guessing, even if the bus stops at every stop. Once you're at the bus station you're a 2 minute walk from Burger King, a further 2 minute walk fomr the POW which has a handily places bookies in the outside corner and then a 2 minute walk to the stadium. Perfect and for those that don't ahve tickets, you wlak past a ticket office on your way from the POW to the stadium any way. 6 weeks left Anyone want to go to the PL Pairs at Somerset from Cardiff? If so, let me know here Edited May 19, 2008 by SCB Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
