Do,s anybody know the year this tour took place ? And who went on this trip.

I Remember their being a good selection of real ales on in the station bar one of my first memories of real ale. As now and then abertillery sold crap beer (with the exception being the commercial)

The youth won their game as did wales but the journey back to wales was very long and dreadful

If anyone is about will be down the park for the first game of the season
