Looks like it’s going to be very windy and wet in Cardiff the next couple of days… FLOOD warnings! Yes you might be in a rush to get somewhere but PLEASE drive careful, just a few pointers for you newer or less confident drivers; First and foremost: SLOW DOWN! Surfaces are a lot weaker in the rain Stay towards the middle of lanes as water is known for building up on the edges of roads Space yourself from cars –…

Hey! So summer has ended and it is so sad! I am such nesh person and everyday for the past week I have sat in the office practically hugging an electric heater. My housemate has a vendetta with the heating too and so at home I am wearing every single item of clothing I own. On the plus side, winter is an excuse for winter shopping! I have just invested in some beautiful new bootboots! This week I have also…

Yipeee, I actually have a ‘reasonable’ excuse to put on a few pounds this week… The whole saying; ‘I’m going to get fit ’ starts EVERY Monday in my books (agreed?) BUT this week it didn’t.

I hope you all got stocked up with new goodies from the student lock in… Oh! And don’t worry about your new bank balance— that’s what your student loan is for (obviously).

I’m here to be a bit of an agony aunt for yourselves, especially students and keep you informed of what to…

So this weekend was a big weekend for everyone in Cardiff with the half marathon – and amazingly it was a record breaking turnout. (One year I will be fit enough to be one of them!) We all went out to cheer them on and I stood there scoffing a bacon buttie, now only realising that must of been torture for the runners – sorry! But a big well done to everybody who ran, you make everybody in Cardiff very…

It’s happened… Cardiff Times has taken a step into the 21st century! As you may know Cardiff Times in making a bold move and expanding onwards and upwards… and outwards with the amount of food we eat in the office! So 4 years on and Louise and Mark, the editors/managers/owners of Cardiff Times have hired the two best people in the world, myself (Charlie) and Hayley. Both of us are recent graduates, I myself studied English Language and Hayley studied…
