Miss Wales Visits Wales Squad
Lucy went to the Vale Hotel to meet members of the Wales squad last week. She asked the players to sign her autograph album that she has been collecting during her year as Miss Wales. The book, full of signatures of sports teams and TV and film stars, will then be auctioned for charity at the end of her reign. The players were happy to oblige, as can be seen from the picture featuring Christian Ribeiro and Mark Bradley. Lucy also received a signed Wales football at the end of her visit that will also go to a charity of her choice.
