Looking For A Vacation Destination? Why Not Try Wales!

March 27th, 2009 | 12:12 pm
 
I've never actually been to Wales, but I've heard it's a beautiful country. And from these photos of St. Mary street in Cardiff, it looks like Wales would be a great place to take your family for a nice, wholesome, vacation.

    Aside from the public pissing it looks a lot like Austin's 6th street on any Saturday night.

  3. roney81 Says:

    pretty clean town

  4. nate Says:

    When you're looking for this shit, you'll find it. I mean, I spent 6 years living in Germany, I've seen countless people pissing and puking in the street. Thats a pretty average weekend... Maybe a few more broken noses, but that might have just been the friends I surrounded myself with...

    looks like a fun night out to me...

    btw according to lots of red (welsh) shirts in some of the pics background. i guess it was taken after the 6nations deciding match, if you lose on your home turf (and lose the ff'in tournament while you're at it) its a damn good reason to get ridiculously drunk.

    Is this a normal weeknight or was there something goin on?

  10. Tom Says:

    AL-P
    there are loads of police cars in the pics, they are the the bright colored ones....

  11. L to the P Says:

    Is that guy climbing the fence in the pink hat Donkeylips from Salute Your Shorts?
    God I hope so.

  12. Josh M Says:

    i like the one where the guy is putting the pizza box on top of the garbage can that has piled up, "just... one... more..."

    random bloody guy FTW

    Oh look, its the i'm-gonna-rape-you-in-your-sleep tooth fairy.

    Seeing as I live in Cardiff. I'd say those pictures are about right. An average Saturday night in Cardiff city centre...

    I was looking into a vacation spot and found whales. It looked pretty killer but was too black and white, so I chose Santa Barbara.

    Came home with every std there is--shoulda just done the whales.

    I like the guy with BRAINS on his shirt as he looks thoroughly confused as to why he's in the trash!

  19. Anonymous Says:

    He's wearing the welsh rugby team's kit and they're sponsored by the local brewery S.A. Brains. In case you were wondering. Doesn't make it any less ironic though!

    Here you can see why brits have the worst reputation of all EC countries and are feared all over the continent, exspecially in mediterrenian holiday destinations like Mallorca and Portugal. (But the russians are on the rise.)

    Must have something to do with mad cow desease, came from england, that is sure!

    Guess people couldnt wait for New Orleans to be at 100 percent again huh.

    Gotta love the brits.

    PARTY ON!

    I'm ashamed to say that with the omission of the welsh language on the police vans I could be convinced of this being anywhere in the UK on a Monday/Thursday/Friday/Saturday night. Including my home town of Bedford.

  24. Anonymous Says:

    Luton here. We're just as bad as you guys, if not worse.

  25. Alex Says:

    Bedford here too, you head down tavistock street or the highstreet on a saturday night and, asides from the rubbish, it looks a hell of alot like this. Which isn't a bad thing, until someone throws a punch....

  26. Anonymous Says:

    Yeah, I don't know why, but those pictures kind of make me want to go there.

  27. Jack Says:

    Yeah, I'm Welsh and I can confirm it's like this...
    Didn't say that was a bad thing.

  28. Mike K Says:

    Yeah, I agree, Tuesday nights are pretty quiet.

    looks like new orleans on a sunday.

    and i thought the irish were bad

  31. Anonymous Says:

    Yup, very accurate. That town gets crazy after a big soccer / rugby game. The women are so easy, tho not all that attractive. The place is no joke.

  32. coco7wewe Says:

    Rule Britania!

  33. Dagnut Says:

    That's after the 6 nations decider..Rugby is the national sport..so they have some excuse not that they need it

  34. Anonymous Says:

    I agree it looks just like 6th street in Austin on any given night. Only thing missing is the cops with their boots on peoples necks.

  35. Edwordrules Says:

    Wow, that looks like a European TJ, just worse, cause it has Europeans.

  36. Pierre Says:

    Lots of riot fencing. Seems to indicate that there was some big sports event going on.

    Remember, europeans fucking invented hooliganism.

  37. Random Asshole Says:

    Looks like North Jersey on a Monday Morning.

    I grew up in Cardiff, left in the early 1990's. Ita a fackin zoo now and not just on international days. Lots of the protagonists are what we used to call the VC - Valley Commandos and the SAS - Stocky Ankled Slappers on account of the influx of men and women from the valleys that surround Cardiff. Cardiff is actually a pretty small city but the population swells massively on a Friday and Saturday night.

    Its gone a bit like Brighton in that it resembles one hugh stag / hen party - there are sh*t loads of them every week. Pretty colourful stuff but its best not to feed the animals. If it gets too much you can always slip off to Cardiff bay which is a bit more civilised but still plenty of fun.

    I was just thinking the same. I live in Brighton, and was noticing the similarities. :p Good times. :)

    pretty accurate representation of cardiff on a saturday night about 8 O'clock ..... it does get more colourful later...

  42. Erin Says:

    any English town/city on a weekend ... or a weeknight :)

  43. Rimat Says:

    I know the great party of only girls At Lesbo art club

    Was the most fun-filled 4 months of my life...loved it! :)

  46. dane Says:

    apparently wales doesn't have any bathrooms... which is okay from the look of things they would probably be pretty awful.

    God Bless the Welsh.

    Gotta say, had a couple of nights out in Swansea (nwext city over), and that was just as fun!

    ok Michel Fonze, our country is spelt W-A-L-E-S. and why the fuck would people post this, its not representing wales at all, only a tiny part of it
