I must say, though, that the Welsh were excellent hosts. I went to Cardiff a few times and stayed, mostly, in a guesthouse on the opposite side of the River Taff from the stadium! Great fried breakfast and a gentle stroll to watch the match. When we went in 2006 for the Carling Cup, we found a great 4 star golf and country club just outside Cardiff. So good, there were even TV screens in the bath!!!!
You don't get that in Brent, eh, lol?

There is a bit of a difference, eh?
