‘On Tour’

Like all good social sides the tour is the highlight of many a season but, sadly, tour rules mean that “what goes on tour stays on tour” (but if you read the match reports from the most recent seasons you might get some clues, or if you're married to Grizz …). We undertook only ‘occasional’ tours in the formative and less certain years but have set out from the shores of Cardiff every year since 1993.
