Authors David and Gareth take a trip through the places, peculiarities and past practices of Cardiff, stopping off to sample the culinary (and alcoholic) delights of the city along the way. From Clark's Pies and a heaped helping of 'Half and Half' to the oddities of the 'Kaairdiff' accent, this fact-packed compendium reveals the contributions Cardiff has made to the history of the nation and recalls some of its famous faces Shirley Bassey, Charlotte Church and Frank Hennessy amongst them and popular attractions. This book is guaranteed to entertain, amuse and surprise everyone who picks it up.
