Kiwi pub Neath 17:44 - Oct 17 with 7126 views | oldgrey | Anyone have any info about this place? Reason for asking is that the band my son is in are supposed to be playing a gig there on Fri 25th. Is there nearby parking? Need to know this as I am unpaid roadie and gear lifter. If anyone is around on that day and the place is half decent please drop in and support them (battery powered arcade). | | | | |

Kiwi pub Neath on 12:13 - Oct 18 with 6945 views | Gretsch | There used to be a guy serving behind the bar, cant think of his name, but he was the first openly gay guy I ever remember, very popular with everyone, real character. Last night I had in there (the pub I mean) was Silver Jubilee 1977.
