as huw explains in one of these movies, the park vaults is where he and i would waste our time between lectures; sometimes others would join us; a few good beers were available at one time; i don't remember any regulars;

on one occasion, huw and i had finally given in to our fellow computer scientists and sat in a posers' bar on churchill way with no real ale; we soon returned the party to the correct path, crossing queen street to the park vaults;

on the way, i told everyone the story of `son of a bitch', a strong, biley beer from the bullmastiff brewery, once of penarth, now of leckwith; i'd enjoyed it with dad at the white horse in llandeilo, when i was quite young, and i longed to have it again;

when we arrived at the vaults, there was the son of a bitch; what a happy coincidence; i don't know whether anyone beside me and huw tried the stuff, but i didn't care;

once huw and i became aware of the newt and cucumber on wharton street, with its array of real ales, we spent less time at the vaults; but it was much closer to uni, and so always good for a quick one;

i popped into the vaults once again, after my university years, and found theakston old peculier; it was clean and fruity, like i'd never had it before; perhaps someone had tipped ribena into it

i think this was the time i arrived far too late and slept on the back lawn to avoid waking anyone up; daniel discovered me at some later hour of darkness, which resulted in keith and caroline waking anyway
