Cardiff, Wales

4 days into my stay in Cardiff, Wales. Other than work, which seemed to be buildup of challenges, life here's boring. Shops here close at 5pm or 5.30pm everyday! By the time work's over, all shops are closed...leaving only restaurants & bars. And have I mentioned, 4 days through my stay here...I haven't stepped into a grocery store or even seen one! No 24 hours 7 Elevens like those in Singapore or huge Walmarts in the States. Oh man..it's crazy! The food...equally pathetic. Potatoes, sandwiches, bread, chunks of meat...erpx, how uninteresting. Which explains why I haven't spent a single great britain pound yet. Probably the only thing commendable - beautiful architecture.
