Summer's here...

... And only one week until the Millennium Stadium, Cardiff, plays host to League Two leaders Carlisle United, as they take on League One's Swansea City in the Football League Trophy Final (Formerly the LDV Trophy, but LDV went bust).

To celebrate reaching Cardiff, the Blues have adopted a song by the group So What as their anthem for the final, which you can listen to online and download from the "Blue Army 2006" website, available here.
Go and enjoy!

A Joke

40 Gypsies arrive at Heaven's gates, St Peter said "We've only got room for 12 so decide amongst yourselves who's coming in".
5 minutes later St Peter says to God, "they've gone!" God says "what, all 40?" St Peter says "No! The fucking gates!"

Go on, laugh! You know you want to!

Have a great weekend. . .
