@samgadjones: A few 100 of the people who most influence how @NATO is seen in the western world. In a carpark. Waiting for hours http://t.co/38Y1dUia0U
@jameschappers: 100s of foreign journos, already mocking summit grub, unable to leave site for 2 hrs as no buses turn up. Riot brewing. Brits stoic #NATO
@patrickwintour: Hundreds of foreign reporters left stranded in Nato summit site car park for 2 hours. Worst run summit ever attended. Well done Dave.

I make that about 4 tweets about being locked in until the leaders are finished.
Nothing story from unimportant people.

He praised the country's "extraordinary beauty, wonderful people and great hospitality".
Mr Obama was speaking at an event hosted by the Prince of Wales at the Celtic Manor Resort to thank local people involved in organising the summit.
Think I`ll agree with Obama on this 0ne

My guess: NOT ON YOUR NELLIE DUFF!
The media are just there to report. They could have been in Syria in real danger. Instead they were in a highly secure compound and had grub. Only a spoilt child complains about a free meal and a free taxi!
As a previous poster pointed out, we are Celtic, yet Americans know all about Scotland and Ireland while many are totally oblivious about a nation with a living ancient language and culture.
You may disagree with NATO and the summit, but it certainly gave our tiny but proud country some much-needed positive publicity.
Cymru am Byth!!

Hilarious. Media reporting on media not being able to arrange their own friggin travel.
Any reporter worth his salt would have a plan in place for such issues otherwise they miss the interviews and photo opportunities.
Hundreds waiting an hour. Not quite the end of the world is it.
Anyone important got where they had to be.
