Re: Cardiff


I love Cardiff - used to go there a lot on business and it was one of my favourite cities.

Very pretty and seasonal . . . and that's a monster ice rink!!

Re: Cardiff


just went last Monday to see Peter Kay. Nice City but it's had a lot of money chucked at it, just like the NE and NW, us down here in the SW on the other hand get very little. The rail improvments anounnced yesterday is a classic example!

Re: Cardiff


Looks a lovely City. Often wondered if it would be worth a visit. Obviously a lot of effort put in to make it festive. The window dressing is so sweet, nice that shops go to the trouble of dressing their windows with such care.

Re: Cardiff


Lovely festive pics Mags, the ice rink looks wonderful.
Did you get all your shopping done ?
I'm going tomorrow, was going to Preston but have been told there is a demonstration on with lots of trouble expected. May try Southport.

No I didn't get all the shopping done, Shelley but that's not to say they didn't have plenty of choice there! I love Cardiff, there are two huge Malls there and several smaller ones so no matter what the weather throws at you, you are mostly inside under cover and warm.

The Christmas decorations are lovely, it makes shopping pleasurable as everything is bright and cheerful.

I should be on commission promoting Cardiff, shouldn't I!

Re: Cardiff


Lovely mags. I do like Cardiff, ever since my son was at uni there and I got to know the city quite well. Wish he was there now rather than in Australia
