SHE SAID:

Geoff to the cricket, me on the cultural walk of the city!

It was a sunny day in Cardiff with no rain expected...OMG! Putting on the sun for our final day!

I was the tourist again, checking out the old stuff, museum & castle, whilst Geoff shouted at the Aussie cricketers (or something!).

It's our final night in Cardiff, we have pizza & Tiramisu organised for dinner.

 

WW2 Memorial in Alexandra Gardens

Cardiff Uni

City Hall

Park House- the "new" house style for the mid 1800's

Ebeneser Chapel - Made from stones from all parts of the world

HE SAID:

Due to the lack of a certain Scottish/English person's willingness to travel any further than his own back yard I had a spare ticket to offload. I asked around the incoming crowd a bit without luck, then asked a steward for a ticket office (or similar). At the tent were some people trying to buy, and another trying to sell.

In the end I sold both my tickets to an Aussie Dad and his lad, and bought one from a nice chap called Owen. We were seated next to each other for the day and had a good chat. I was very surprised by his statistical knowledge and memory. Anyway, he promised to ask around for tickets to the Lord's test (which I could not get), and also to see if my spare Trent Bridge tickets were required by any of his friends.Quite a lucky strike for me.
