This is the Cardiff Dairy Factory, or what's left of it, which is about a 40 minute drive from home. Cardiff is a small settlement in rural Taranaki, as opposed to a large city in Wales as many currently believe. It's a common misconception but it seems that no one can be bothered correcting the situation.

(not that strange hybrid we see where there's lots of padding, but a real game by real men) at the Millennium stadium in Cardiff because I thought it was in Wales. Oh dear, back to dreaming!
