Yes, it was a good price (included breakfast). Although I think the weekends are far more.

Beautiful Places in Cardiff Wales 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 As Well As the Wales Millennium Centre/Canolfan Mileniwm Cymru Caerdydd And Welsh word for Cardiff Wales is Caerdydd Cymru Well done Da iawn.

About 20 years ago, when I was married to my second wife and lived in Cwmbran, we used to go to lots of live concerts. I was always an Ian Hunter fan (previously of Mott The Hoople fame) and his Rant Band were appearing at The Coal Exchange; it was a venue then. One thing I remember about that concert most of all was that I had a friend from Manchester who was also a Hunter fan and came to stay with us for a couple of nights, to go to the gig. My wife liked a drink (Yes, here we go, down the slippery slope) and by the time we got to the concert on the night, she was a little bit...past it. I remember my friend saying we were supposed to carry her out, not in...! Actually, that night was quite historic because 3 founder members of Mott took the stage together for the first time in what must have been 30 years or more; Ian Hunter, Mick Ralphs and Verden Allen (the latter of whom actually came over before the gig and started talking to me - I was chuffed). It was called the 'Taking The Mick' tour because Mick Ralphs joined Hunter's Rant band for it. Fantastic venue (and I also saw them at 6 or 7 other venues around UK that tour, sometimes going back to the hotels for the after gig drinks, on one occasion walking through the streets of Manchester with the drummer - who was previously Paul McCartney's Wings drummer [Steve Holley]).

Hello again 👋

Hello from the States. Another interesting and entertaining video. I am learning more and more about Wales each week by watching your videos. I like when historic buildings are refurbished and given new life. The food looks delicious, especially the breakfast. Never had baked beans for breakfast before but I’m sure it goes good with eggs, sausage and ham. Still catching up on some previous walking videos. Stay safe and be well.

Thanks for watching. Most kids grew up on baked beans - beans on toast for lunch and beans and chips for dinner!

I saw some great bands there, remember seeing Peter Green in concert there.
