Thank you for sharing this. I don't know what to expect but just learning and seeing about other cultures sounds like a wonderful time.

Are you going to be at DLP that weekend too? I much prefer to go during the summer to DLP but DW wanted us to go for the Welsh Festival this year. We will be in Billy Bob's at 11pm on Friday and Saturday night for both these gigs.

they should have mickey dressed up as a leek and have minnie dressed as a daffodil wearing wellies and holding blow up sheep.

they should really embrace the whole welsh way of life.

Yes we are going to be there Sat/Sun/Mon but not at 11pm. DS will be sound asleep by then and so will I.

In my case it was Work! But I do enjoy going back to Wales to visit friends and family and for holidays - everything is just so cheap compaired to where I live now. Even if I do have to pay to get into the country via the Seven Crossing.

 

[adr2.8i]

ah yes the severn toll bridge. its a disgrace paying nearly £7 too get into wales.
