Cardiff – the worst signposted city ever?

When the new Severn Crossing opened people joked that the Welsh were trying to put off visitors by making people pay to get in. Little did I realise how tough it was going to be as about half a mile before the bridge we had to exit the motorway at the last available option and go in hunt of a cash machine (ATM) to have the money to cover the £5.40 charge. Who carries cash nowadays?

Then there was the challenge of finding roads around Cardiff. Not all A roads have the green backing to their number. A lot of signposts are overgrown and ignored. Street names are just completely missing.

Anyway, it was all for Jo and James’ wedding. The sun shone, the service was great and the whole day flew by. We even made it home by midnight to get some reasonable sleep.
