changing-room

A YOUNG woman standing naked in a swimming-pool changing-room had the shock of her life when she looked down and realised she was being caught on camera.

"I dread to think what would have happened if my sister had been in the changing-room on her own," she added.

Wales have moved out of the traditional home changing-room at the Millennium Stadium in order to maximise every possible advantage ahead of the RBS Six Nations Championship match against Scotland today (2pm).

So instead of turning right when the players arrive at the stadium today, they will head left and into what has always been the away changing-room. He said: "In the old (home) dressing-room, it was difficult to see all the players because some of them were behind you when you were addressing them.

Wales' new surroundings were synonymous with the "away team hoodoo" after the first 12 major cup finals to be staged at the Millennium Stadium were won by teams in the other changing-room. That run was broken by Stoke City football club in 2002 - but only after a feng shui expert had carried out a blessing.

Largely due to the multi-purpose nature of the stadium, the changing-room walls are left as a "blank canvas" for each team to dress as they see fit on the day.

JOCKEYS have accused the Horseracing Regulatory Authority of not taking their anxiety about changing-room and weighing-room scales discrepancies seriously.

Third, the readouts between changing-room scales and weighing-room scales aren't always the same.

"Franny Norton, for example, weighed 8st21/2lb according to the changing-room scales but, when he walked ten yards to the weighing-room scales, his weight was given as 8st 3lb exactly.
