Wales! Never missed a match when I was at university in Cardiff. OK. So the money could have been spent on books, but the library was superb.

[welshlibranr]

OH sher,the atmosphere in Cardiff is electric!....love it!...

[owdhamer]

when okdham had a rugby team in the fifties,they made some great signings from the valleys

[lady-janine]

welshi there is an international ceramics festival every other year at the uni in aberystwyth. try never to miss it. 700-800 people all talking clay and kilns, lots of demos, wonderful weekend. catch up time with lots of friends.

[welshlibranr]

yes owdhammer, those valley boys were and are tough boys!.....not sure why, but they were and are to this day!........maybe down to the fact that for generations they worked the mines and had hard lives?

[DTCwordfan]
