Quiet March weekend & ICE Hockey

Hi all,
It has been a quiet week here in Cardiff for us. I went to the soccer again last week, Cardiff v Watford (2-1) but Les and I left at the 90 minute mark (score 1 -1 at the time!!!) so we missed the winning goal, but we were lucky enough to hear the roar outside!!
Kristin worked on the weekend and I was struck down with a cold/flu. I am getting over it but have had a couple of days of work.
Declan is playing another rugby match this week. Wales lost their last game of the 6 nations against Ireland (who won the tournament - undefeated - Grand Slam) but it was a fantastic game to watch on TV.
Next weekend we intend to travel to Cornwall and see the sights - Tintagel, Lands End, Penzance, etc.. and we are going to try a Youth Hostel at Fowey on the Sat night.
Cheers!
LATE POST: Billy, Declan and Andy also went to see the Cardiff Devils v Nottingham Panthers in ICE Hockey. Sarah's brother Rich got us some tickets. It was interesting to see ice hockey live and the players can move extremely fast. I nthe warm up we stood behing the goals and the puck travels at very fast speeds and slams into the goalie and when it misses him and the goal it bangs into the perspex walls with one hell of a thud!
