For those of you considering a trip to France, some words of encouragement. I did a DIY trip. Bristol to Girona return (Ryanair). Frogbus Girona to Perpignan return. Nice hotel a mile and a half from the ground for Sat night. Matchday stand ticket. Total cost? Wait for it...............................84 euros (71 pounds) !!!!! No excuse.

He wakes up and gives me sh*t, but here's the best part! She's with this golf pro, but she's married to some other guy! Some hotshot banker! And he's the one they pinned it on!

Dunno. 30 minutes in a bus (12 miles?). Excellent service. Had my headphones on listening to Treorchy Male Voice

Ah then it is cracking deal you've found!
Try Cor Meibion Llanelli next time though.

Correct Brummie! Its a good hour and half drive as the motorway takes you up and over the foothills of the Pyrenees. Hope its clear weather for you as I have done the trip and there are some impressive views on the drive.
The distance is slightly irrelevant as that is a fantastic price for a package.!

Yes I stand corrected. Time flies when you are enjoying yourself! What the heck. What's 40-50 miles when you get to see the Scarlets in winter sunshine? For those of you travelling down, see you in the brasserie at the Place de La Loge near the 'castillet' (it's a red brick little castle near the river Basse smack in the middle of town). They are bonkers about their rugby down here. The Sardane bands are already warming up. What an atmosphere
Cummon the Scarlets. Nothing to lose.

Stade Aime Giral half a mile (10 mins walk) from the Castillet in a straight line along the Avenue Marechal Joffre then turn right into Allee Aime Giral. The Place de La Loge is inside the Castillet after walking through the archway. A votre sante !!!

Oops. Just seen the official invite from the USAP supporters to their clubhouse. Be rude to refuse
But the brasserie is only ten mins away so intend doing both.
