CARDIFF
is
a
fine
city
with
a
population
of
around
300,000,
which
grows
by
100,000
on
"Big
Event"
occasions,
when
our
visitors
arrive
to
watch
their
favourite
team,
or
hear
fine
music.
It
is
a
good
idea
to
book
your
accomodation
well
in
advance,
as
you
may
find
otherwise
that
you
have
to
travel
long
distances
to
get
alternative

which
could
be
up
to
50
miles
away.

take
place,

Gardens
