I really want to organize something in the new Wales Millenium Centre.
Being Wales though, not only did we fail to open it until almost 2005,
but all the road signs with the directions on have just been placed on
the floor by the side of the road, and nobody has thought to update the
website now that it's open (the "live" web cam still shows that sunny
day that we had back in, ooh, July was it?).

So failing that, what the hell, I'll go anywhere else that will let us
in.
