Being a Manic Street Preachers fan, I had always wanted to go, so mum got us tickets to see the band at their homecoming gig in Newport. Everyone in Wales is really friendly, I love their accents. We stayed in Newport for a night and then headed to Cardiff, via Blackwood (where the Manics grew up) – it was like a pilgrimage.
In Cardiff, we went to the Dr. Who exhibition, which was filled with Daleks – I think they’re adorable.
And Cyberman, which I find a little more scary. After that we explored Cardiff and then headed back to London. Wales gets a big thumbs up, but it’s weird coming back from holiday to a more exciting city!
