Going up to Merthyr!

Clive the bus driver decides to take a bunch of peculiar and fed up passengers to Merthyr Tydfil Town Centre instead of their usual trip to Cardiff.
As Clive embarks on his journey we share the fun and excitement of the passengers on route to Merthyr Tydfil.
As they arrive in Merthyr Tydfil Town Centre the passengers are greeted by more than they expected and some news of some upcoming events during the Summer of 2014.

I was in Merthyr Tydfil about 4 weeks ago. Anybody remember 3 big guys all over 6ft 3" in the pub called the Wyndham Arms that actually smelled like a gents but the beer was so cheap, £2.70 for a pint of Stella we decided to stay. Met a couple of birds there who wanted to take our pictures and some bloke in there thought he was king of the castle and the local hard man but was in fact a complete tosser.

[@frankieobrien3264]

[@neildavies7042]

It's called tongue-in-cheek and has given Merthyr the most positive press it's had for a long time.

[@Steggman]

Neil Davies well, your right there. but it still aint good, munn.

[@RobG001]

At least the female singer was well hot, nice voice too. Still baffled how I got from watching Hickok45 to this though.lol.

[@3tangle3]

.Nice song but 150 years ago, nearly everyone there spoke Welsh Now, no one there can pronounce their own town name right "mur-thur" ......nah mate....its a welsh word - more like 'Mehr-thir" Merthyr means 'Martyr' in English hahaha Its the same in most towns mind, we've forgotten how to pronounce the town names due to welsh being surpressed Dylan is even pronounced like the English do 'Dillon'................It's Duh-lan! :D
