Me, with dragon-painted cheek, and, in the background, Cardiff Castle and statue of Aneurin Bevan, who was responsible for establishing the NHS.

How about an all-over Welsh flag next time Liz? The dragon looks a little small but tasteful to be sure.

Congrats to Wales! I love rugby too and watched quite a bit on the Rugby Union! Lived in Scotland for 3 years taught me a lot about the Scots but have very few Welsh friends! Good to meet you on Bloggers Over 50!

Hurray! Wales won! I'm so excited to see you in the street there - I have stood there too!!! ooooo, I certainly AM coming back there! :D and we can post a photo of the two of us there!

I must send you the photo I had taken of me with 2 lovely Welsh "lads" at the castle at St. Fagan's. They were "Jones's" and it's my maiden name, so we all had a good giggle and they both were pleased to have a photo taken.
