Thanks for the info - my task for today was to research the Rally.

So far:
Might as well go for a long weekend and make the most of it.
Ticket prices but for 4 days, I suppose not too bad. Would also like to see the Millenium Stadium thing as the kids and I enjoyed it last time - misery guts can wait in the car outside and drive around Cardiff for the evening which will probably be cheaper than trying to park.
It will be cold wet and probably miserable so I will need to be firm in the knowledge that I have a cosy swish expensive hotel to return to - they have those in Wales so no problem.
This all adds up to quite a bit but we did not get to Valencia this year and if he really loved me the money would not be an issue (might not actually include that in my argument).

If HRH not happy with my plans then he can go ahead and do his own research and remember that I told him to do that in the first place.
