25 hour Cardiff experience

Well well. I had mentioned to the lads for a while that England were playing Wales (rugby union) at Millennium stadium and we eventually booked it all up 5 days before the game. The only issue was that there was no accomodation for the Saturday night in Cardiff..mmmm. I think it might have been me that asked "what time does the first bus come back?". Problem solved..........
So the five of us sloped (fairly larger than desired Friday night) onto a 8:30am bus to Wales. Off the bus and into a packed pub. Red clad Welshman a plenty. So lovely pub lunch it was and then we descended on the stadium with the rest of the punters.

The anthems, rugby and general atmosphere were amazing!
After the game we drank, danced and soak up the victorious Welsh vibe from 4pm straight through to 4am when we departed back to London. The 12 hours of pubs, clubs and streets started slow but gained speed as we all spend times separated (some by accident, some by choice, and some by bouncers) bumbling around the very entertaining alleys of Cardiff.
All in all a great 25 hour excursion.
