    There are a lot more better parts but this is what most visitors tend to see when they come.
    In fairness there is a good curry house nearby.

    That Aberdeen one is a classic. The look on the guy’s face says ‘ah sod it, it’s my wife, it’ll be easier to let her get in with it’

    Good of her bloke to stand guard and let her know if anyone’s coming.

    Not sure where the chap at the bottom of the stack in Mikewsmith’s picture is gripping the young lady with his left hand…

    Sure looks like Wan Chai I think it looks worst in the daylight.

    That Cardiff After Dark series, while reflective of some of what may go on around Cardiff, bugs me quite a bit, as in all my 10+ years of living here (and in the last 6, very close to City Centre), I have hardly ever seen such hideousness.

    I could just as easily have gone out and taken photographs like this one:

    and suggested that it was representative of what happens in Cardiff at night (which, in many ways, I think it is).

    By contrast, I used to arrive at Manchester Piccadilly and have to make my up to Victoria on a Friday night, and when I did, it was virtually guaranteed that I would have to step around any number of loud drunkards and other louts on the way.

    @Drac: I love that place. Quite honestly, if I was forced to choose a city in the UK, it would have to be Newcastle. In a heartbeat.

    It’s also responsible for making me spit my tea across the room.

    It’s a cracking city that has turned itself around over the last decade. The Big Market is earmarked for a revamp too.

    Noooooooo was the first reaction then back to the redevelopment of some places here, it’s a shame that gone it was a classic… When did you last go there?

    It’s not gone yet. Last year it’s still a horrible dump, I turned the wrong way out of High Market and ended up there. I nipped back through to Grey St pretty quick as the clients outside the bars in the Big Market during the day are something special.

    Some closed down others have sorted themselves out and there’s a night life reappearing.

    Welcome to Bristol. Generally a great city but the centre on a weekend night is pretty grim.

    That Cardiff pic is pretty representative from the times I’ve been out there.

    You may well be mistaken for giving her the benefit of the doubt – who’s to say she wasn’t about to lay a cable. I wouldn’t put it past some people.

    CFH and Jordie, yep, Wan Chai but you both kind of knew that somehow, Lockhard Road regulars?
