Dragon Chutney and No Haka
On the way to Cardiff I stop off first in Llandod and then Brecon. Today is
the Brecon Beacons Food Fayre and courageously the decision has been taken to hold it al fresco in the town centre.
As it happens the weather is fine despite threats of gales and rain. I buy a range of Christmas presents and foodstuffs including dragon chutney! This one has obviously got under the Trading Standards radar but if they find out no doubt they will sink their metaphorical teeth into it!
Before the rugby match at the WRU lunch there’s a fitting tribute from Gerald Davies to Keith Rowlands and at the match a one minute’s silence later there’s the clash itself with the All Blacks.
We are truly overwhelmed in every department they are foirmidable in defence and superb in attack, Incredibly fast.
The All Blacks dispense with the on pitch Haka having done it in their dressing room before hand. Apparently there has been some dispute about the timing of it and that’s why the Al Blacks performed it behind closed doors!
Anyway visible Haka or not they were worthy winners.
