It was very low key but I must say that everyone- officials, spectators, people servng etc were incredibly friendly and welcoming. My favourite moment was where we got served our coffee before the President of the Welsh F A even though he had ordered it first and the server whispered to me ' At least you're paying for it '

That would be Peter Rees - he's the one that gave us bibs so we could take pics at an U19 game. And he offered us to help ourselves to programmes and teamsheets (shame I'd just bought a couple of programmes He seems a really nice bloke, and I'm sure he wouldn't mind you getting served before him. If he knew you'd travelled so far, he'd have probably bought it for you |

One other plus point - I love the Welsh retro kit which looks just like the 1960's. Made by Kappa who also provided the luminous PINK photographers bibs. Did you get a similar fashion icon ?

Just got plain green bibs
Knowing the state of Welsh finances - are you sure the kit wasn't actually old hand-me-downs from the 1960s? |

Could be, the tannoy definitely was...cutting out every 5 seconds. Played havoc with the National Anthems!

When I went to see Wales v Estonia, they managed to play part of the Estonian national anthem during the (reasonably) recent songs played before the kick-off I suppose that was better than the other way around |

At the Wales under 17 game at Cwmbran they made the girls do an unaccompanied version - to be fair they did a good job as did the Aussies !

They certainly seemed to - tho I must admit they could have been singing anything in Welsh and I wouldn't have been any the wiser!
