I'm planning a Swindon trip this weekend. The NRL (Australian Rugby League for the Philistines out there  ) grand final is on Sunday morning at ~10am My parents do not have Sky Television. Will any pub in Swindon be showing this event? I'm assuming not, but thought it was worth asking the question. Any answers appreciated

This is actually a general discussion forum. I think you need glasses as clearly all that wanking is making you go blind.
But if you like wanking so much, the not safe for work forum may have some dodgy wanking material.

If you ask nicely at the steam railway in old town I'm sure they'll put it on, unless somebody is watching something else.

Unless a large Antipodean community now exists in Swindon where there wasn't one a few years ago, I doubt any pub will be opening up early to show it.

They opened early last year for the NRL and Aussie Rules grand finals.
