    Quote Message

    My husband is a huge football fan so he's very excited [for the game]. For the past two weeks we've had a Welsh CD playing in our car with Manic Street Preachers, Stereophonics, Tom Jones etc. We live in a small town called Andújar in the Andalucía province so it's our duty to make sure everyone knows about Wales. We teach English and I've even used the song "Together Stronger" as part of a class for my teenagers!
