+1 to that mate, the bloke balancing the pizza box is pretty good too lol.

Dunno where the subway bus stop classes itself as a bin though

Oh, and just for the record, many of those young folks will be part of the large local student community whose educational establishments and residential accommodation are close to or within the City Centre.

A large proportion of these students are not from Wales. I there object to the title of this thread*

i'm assuming we were all young once yeah? i'd say the majority of us have had a skinful on a weekend and done some japes and got into some scrapes we're not necessarily proud of...

interesting pictures of culture, but nothing to get excited about
Eh? Did you even read it? It's not a news article about being young, going out, getting into scrapes or getting wasted. It's about a documentary photographer and his work. Aside from the usual Daily Mail bullsh!t mid-article, the guy is pretty positive and interested in what he is seeing.

Right or rong its just a scene you dont see in European Cities. Why i dunno but this comment from the Mail...Grim, but that is sadly how I remember Cardiff, this is the culture we live in but you would not see these scenes in any other European capital city. I blame the parents tolerant upbringing and the welfare state along with the crazy 24 hr drink law imposed by this inept government.

Made me laugh..."the crazy 24hrs drink law imposed by the Govt" So wait, this kind of thing didn't use to happen before that? Or does he think that the Govt "imposed" 24hr drinking, meaning that you have to drink for 24hrs a day. Dummy either way. No wait, typical Mail reader either way
