I've booked the Premier Inn beside the stadium, so I can avoid the joys of Llanelli town center after the game.

That's why I have booked a place in Carmarthen. No great shakes either but there are a couple of nice pubs with decent value rooms to shorten the walk home.
I have a backup Travelodge in Llanelli though in case no-one else is convinced of the merits of my plan. The Boar's Head might be no craic on my own.

As they told us a few years ago, the best place to go out in Llannelli is Wind St, Swansea.

I’m not getting ferry this time, last last train is 1230 ish, you’ll make that, hopefully.

Rail disruption that weekend. Getting there should be fine but your Saturday hangover will feature a bus.

just great, at least rail replacement should be faster than public bus to Swansea!
