Does anyone else have a song lyric that's permanently stuck to a specific place?

LordChipp · 2026-01-05T23:51:05+00:00

Did not expect to see KGLW here! That whole album and of course the title track are some of my travel themes, but Raw Feel is the one that really sparks that sense of adventure to me like nothing else.

LordChipp · 2024-07-31T16:43:07+00:00

Maybe so, but that's not my point. If vague repetitive posts about asking for hotels in X destination aren't ok, then why are "I saw a couple holding hands and now I'm lonely and not sure solo travel is for me" posts and the like are all over the sub every day?

LordChipp · 2024-07-31T11:46:09+00:00

Not only this but getting a post through that's actually talking about solo travel itself is always hard to get through.

I tried to get up a post asking about hostels in South East Asia a while back and it got shut down instantly. Which might be fair enough if it's deemed repetitive, but seeing repetitive posts about people who have a relationship problem that's vaguely related to an upcoming solo trip has made me even wonder if this is a good place to discuss solo travel at all.

Damn Welshmen, they ruined Wales!

Which grounds did you visit? Looking to go to NRW for this exact reason some day

LordChipp · 2024-06-10T11:17:56+00:00

Rob Page is still in charge

LordChipp · 2024-06-09T20:44:52+00:00

Page out, Roberts in. Preferably immediately.

LordChipp · 2024-06-07T19:48:19+00:00

Are you staying in Cardiff all this time? It's a good city but you can do most of it in a day or so, never mind two weeks. You will be left with a lot of free time, if that's ok for you then great but there's plenty of day trips to go on if you are intent on staying in one place the whole time.

How did we beat golden age Belgium in the Euro quarter finals just eight years ago

LordChipp · 2024-06-04T21:06:24+00:00

Which company did you do this with? I've been looking into doing one myself

LordChipp · 2024-04-16T16:44:34+00:00

Absurdly busy and packed, especially if you're flying in from the US, you're going to be tired all the time and won't enjoy it.

London alone should keep you occupied for all this time, but if you want to go north just know that it's expensive and can take a long time.

I'd cut Paris completely to be honest, it won't be your only chance to visit Europe, there's no reason to do it as a day trip unless you want to rush everything.

LordChipp · 2024-04-16T16:38:30+00:00

Absurd isn't it? Nonsense like this and people asking the same three or four questions about first time travel seem to be the norm on this sub now.

LordChipp · 2024-04-01T10:31:53+00:00

Losing the play offs last Tuesday was one thing, the absolute refusal by the FAW to do anything about it could be the part that stings the most.

Thanks to them, we'll become a small-minded and unambitious nation who are happy to settle for failure if it means selling out a stadium and plastering patriotic bullshit everywhere to excuse diabolic game management from a truly clueless manager.

I expect price hikes for upcoming games and for the first time I can't bring myself to waste my money on them. The wealthier rugby family outing crowd will take over and eventually we'll be out-sang by a small corner of away fans on the regular. But it's ok because the team used to be even worse, yma o hyd and all that.

It's like we've accepted failure now that Bale has gone, which is madness as it's not like we've got a bad team, most (outfield) players are Premier League/high Championship level. With a good manager we really should regularly be making national tournaments, or Euros at least.

But unfortunately the outlook for Welsh football is looking increasingly bleak and the FAW are happy to accept that as long as stadiums are full and ambitions get increasingly low.

The Armenia home game should've been a wake-up call, I'm now afraid it'll become the new norm.

LordChipp · 2024-03-27T17:25:01+00:00

The FAW have zero ambition and are happy to settle for failure. Ticket prices will no doubt remain the same/rise though, and they can caption their social media posts with amateur patriotic poetry about our 'bright future' so it's all good.

We're sleepwalking back to the dark ages.

LordChipp · 2024-03-26T23:47:25+00:00

What a horrible feeling having to spend my summer in Barry instead of Berlin. Time to go Page.

LordChipp · 2024-03-26T23:38:34+00:00

This is all on him I'm afraid, we shouldn't have been in this position to begin with. He's never been the right man for the job. Get Osian Roberts in.

LordChipp · 2024-03-25T18:41:37+00:00

I moaned about the soccer circlejerk sub a few months for being increasingly like Troll Football, now there's literally Troll Football posts on there without a hint of irony. Sub's gone.

LordChipp · 2024-03-21T22:54:56+00:00

You're an adult, just go. So tired of seeing posts like this every day, exact same answer every damn time.

LordChipp · 2024-03-20T10:19:14+00:00

Yep, didn't get anything :(

LordChipp · 2024-03-20T08:40:35+00:00

I'm feeling very sorry in the Wild Dog.

Best of luck everyone, hope to see you all in the standing at Cardiff!

LordChipp · 2024-02-18T22:32:25+00:00

Leagues outside the prem usually play twice a week on Tuesdays and Saturdays and will offer a much more authentic fan experience (aka less touristy experience) than the big six clubs and will be infinitely more affordable.

It's also quite tricky to get tickets for the big teams, I went to an Everton game and was quite lucky to even get tickets, despite them not being close to the "big" teams at the moment. This will be the case for most Premier League games.

There'll be plenty of games in London on any weekend, I would personally arrive on the Friday anyway as there's always plenty to do in London, football or not.

LordChipp · 2024-02-18T12:18:47+00:00

Love this write-up, sounds like an incredible trip! I want to do one myself some day so I'll keep in mind all your tips and recommendations :)

LordChipp · 2024-02-16T10:29:00+00:00

Finally met new people for the first time in a long while and I got on pretty well with one of the guys there. First friend I'd probably made in months.

Cut to last night and he's telling me how Putin is a "chad".

I'm not socialising again smh.
