r/Cardiff

Anyone else feel like the level of anti social behaviour in the city centre in the day has just skyrocket the last month or so?

It wasn’t fantastic previously, but today I saw several homeless people openly drug dealing in groups. A loud and explicit altercation on St.Marys street. And several people in baklavas, all in the space of a 30 minute lunch break.

Not to mention it’s littered with chavs and roadmen.

What’s changed?

I hear firework sounds in Pentrebane but I don't see any, am I having a stroke?

Hi Cardiff 👋 wanting to go out for a curry over the weekend, does anyone have any recommendations? Thank you! :)

Hope the mods don't mind- whenever I pop into Cardiff from the valleys I like to bring my camera, so here's just a quick video with a few street photographs as well as an anecdote about a lovely Japanese couple I met in Bute Park.

Hello All!

I’ve been living in Cardiff for two years now and still haven’t managed to make friends outside of work. My close friends are all in different countries, and it’s been feeling quite lonely lately.

I can be a bit socially awkward and find it hard to connect with new people, but I really want to change that and build some genuine friendships here.

I’m 29F, work in finance, currently studying ACCA, and I love painting and reading novels.

If anyone is in a similar situation or just looking to connect, feel free to reach out. It would be really nice to make some genuine connections :)

I saw another post explaining drive times are often longer than expected so thought I’d ask this

We are thinking of renting a car for a day during our August trip to see one of the waterfalls at Brecon Beacons, then on to Hay-on-Wye for lunch and browsing/walking around then back to Cardiff that evening

Is this doable? Background we are Americans who’ve never been to the UK or driven on the left before

Am building a map of all the farmers markets in the UK.

If you're looking for a market near you, check it out: platfarm.uk

We have 250+ verified markets listed. If you notice a market missing, just fill in the form and I'll make sure to add it once the details are verified. Farmers markets are a tradition in this country, this is my contribution to keep them going strong!

What would you find useful in a online platform for Farmers Markets?

Gathering steam now. What is this 'immersive learning space' the uni is on about and what examples are there in other universities?

This proposal is so light on detail for something so imminent.

Hi, I tend to go to a lot of massage places.

Just want to know which ones to avoid. Especially if they do extra services.

The midnight racing around the bay is only getting worse. It's louder and louder every night, how are the police completely unable to do anything?

I get that they have other priorities but they have a station less than a quarter mile from where it's happening but nothing seems to happen

Is anybody else in Cardiff experience small power cuts?
