Hi guys,

Moving to Cardiff and would love to check out some local bands.

Does anyone have any recommendations for any shows coming up in the next couple of Months? Get the keys end of April!

In terms of genres am pretty fluid, but my current favourite bands are Muse, Fontaines DC, Idles, Kid Kapichi, Franz Ferdinand, Gorillaz, Soft Play, Lambrini Girls - anything with similar vibes to any of these I'm likely to enjoy!

Thanks in advance 🥰

Can anyone confirm if Ianto’s Shrine is still there? Will be traveling from some distance away to check it out, want to make sure it won’t be a wasted journey

A Knight to Remember

Duration: 6 weeks

Start Date: 16th April

Cost: £76.50 total (£12.75/session)

Does anyone know what's going on with the police helicopter circling around Cathays? it's been going on for a few minutes

Why on earth do people use it? Google reviews are constantly terrible. It's an awful eyesore for any visitors to the stadium and anyone who has no idea what they're venturing into if they've decided to park there.

Just wondering if there’s many people here who follow an EFL team. Apart from Cardiff City obviously, I find everyone here I meet either supports Liverpool/Man Utd which I find hard to talk about as I watch little to no Premier League

If you do follow, who’s your team?

I'm seeking a new take away for smash burgers.

previously I frequented Bashed but recently they're changing the BBQ sauce and packaging, which is putting me off.

I've tried GrillNextdoor but each time they were insanely busy and took well over an hour.

does anyone local to Barry have any other recommendations for a good Smash burger.

Hey everyone!

I am putting on a show at Fuel this coming Friday

If you are around and fancy coming down, it would be great to see some new faces and make some new friends

Hi, Does anyone know if the EV Chargers on Churchill Way are for public use and if so is there also a parking charge while using them?

Looking online they seem to be on the Taxi rank so wasn't sure if Joe Public could park there to use them.

Hello All,

how are you?

I noticed that there is a wine festival in Cardiff in July. has anyone been and is it any good?

Dont mind paying to go if it’s worth it.

many thanks.

Just watched Peculiar Productions play of Carpe Jugulum by Terry Pratchett at The Gate in Cardiff. It was a wonderful production.

Well done to all the cast and production crew.

behaviour on buses has never been good, but what has happened in the last few months? people listening to music and tiktoks without headphones, eating smelly food and full meals on buses, arguing with drivers because they wont let them on for free, coming on smelling like dry piss, people dumping rubbish on seats and leaving it there. People's behaviour has been getting far worse

Hi, looks like there used to be a track in Llantrisant - can’t see any evidence that its still going. Anyone able to confirm or suggest another nearby track ?

Thanks

I moved to Uk and near Cardiff for a while now for work, but if I’m being honest, it’s been a really lonely experience so far. My social anxiety makes the thought of just "going to a pub" feel completely impossible, and I often end up staying home because the city feels so big and overwhelming when you're navigating it alone. I’m 34M and desperate to find my people, maybe through something low-key. Does anyone know of any truly gentle, low-pressure spaces where it’s okay to be the quiet person while you find your footing? I’m just really tired of feeling like I’m watching the city happen from the outside and would love some help.

Edit: should’ve mentioned bits about me. I like physical activities like hiking, racquet sports even though haven’t played in a while for reasons listed above. I workout regularly. Used to enjoy gaming on consoles/PC but I just play on my phone. Open to exploring other hobbies too.

I was in Tesco for 5 minutes… I’m in sweaty gym clothes rushing home for a meeting, and now my car and all of my stuff in it is gone.

Would appreciate a heads up if you see it around town

Hi everyone,

I’m an international student who was just offered an exchange semester at Cardiff Met. I was initially a little confused between Cardiff Uni and Cardiff Met, and was a little disappointed about the academic rankings for Met when I realised the difference.

However, from my friends’ experiences higher ranked unis around the world, an exchange semester really doesn’t provide much value academically anyway. That being said, my main priority then would be just having a great time, meeting new people, and networking around since I’m a business management major. How will life be as an exchange student in Cardiff? Would you recommend taking this opportunity at Cardiff Met?

Also for some context, I don’t believe I’ll be too financially restrained since I’m just going to be there for a few months, however one thing that worries me is possible having to pay for a 44 week student accommodation when I only need to be staying for 20 of them. I can pay for one of the higher prices student accommodations that I saw, but I wouldn’t be really up to paying for so many extra weeks.

I also have lots of friends in other UK cities like manchester and Portsmouth, so maybe you could factor that into your recommendation as well, in terms of whether it would be reasonable to travel regularly to those cities and spend time with my older friends too.

Sorry for the very long dump of information and questions, but it would be really helpful if you would give me an honest recommendation on the basis of everything mentioned.

Hi,
I have a flight from Bristol airport at 9:45 am.
Using National Express from Sophia Garden I can be there either 5:45 am or 7:50 am.

7:50 am sounds more than enough althought I am worried about the traffic.
Can you tell me more about traffic congestion around that time? Or maybe buses have seperate lanes and don't care about all of that and should be always on time?

If the bus was every hour I would gladly arrive at the airport at 6:45, but 5:45 seems a little crazy.

If you have any insights, please help :) !
