We're on a road to... Wembley, OR California!

Just a quick one this, and time to plug a couple of websites that are really worth a few minutes to read.

Firstly is THIS ONE from my cousins Sylvie & Marie-Anne from Ottawa. They, along with a couple of friends are in the process of cycling..... yes, cycling!.... across the southern US, a place I'd really love to visit, and return to Arizona especially.
Anyway, they started in New Orleans about a month ago, and have now made it almost all the way across Texas! That's some good going, and great timing to avoid the winter up here north of the border too!

After beating Wolves 2-0 yesterday at Ninian Park, the Mighty Bluebirds of Cardiff City, are now through to the quarter-finals of the FA Cup! Yes... the LAST EIGHT teams! Something we've not done since 1927, when we actually went all the way and won the FA Cup itself, beating Arsenal 1-0.
Now, one nice chap called Andy has been following "The Road to Wembley" since it started way back at the start of the season, and its now brought him to Cardiff. He was at the game yesterday (making me very jealous, and just a little bit homesick) and now will be following our next game (or more). You can read all about it HERE.

BLLLOOOOOOOOBIRDS!

Hi Owain,

Thanks for the plug! It was a great game at Ninian Park and a fantastic atmosphere. Waiting to see if it will be Sheffield or Middlesborough in the next round. Good luck to Cardiff!
