AnnGlos......l knew more good would come out of this:))

AnnCardiff...welll l did go, hence my excitement, and it was brilliant, such alot of fun. One old boy across the road from where we stood opened his windows and started shouting "Oggy oggy oggy" we all responded, them a camera crew arrived and we had to do it again. Police chatting to everyone, smashing motorbikes:) Too many of them definately, but there you go!!. Bubting and decorations everywhere. All the local schools walked down the middle of the street to their allotted space, they must have felt special:)
The Welsh Guards band marched and played, brilliant, got me goose bumps going. Took pics of the Mascot Goat:) THEN A CROWD OF WOMEN PARKED THEMSELVES right in front of us and started singing, oh my gawd, more goose bumps and almost tears. They were from the Chepstow & Usk womens choir...brilliant. The musical director/pianist had his piano with him on wheels...brilliant :-) ;-)


It was well worth it:))

jude xx :-P ;-)
