The weather strikes again. We were meant to be seeing New Order and The Charlatans in an outdoor venue in Cardiff Bay this evening but extreme weather - in particular high winds - has resulted in the gig being cancelled ☹️🎵

My wife had arranged two days off work and we had a non-refundable hotel booking in Cardiff for the night so have just enjoyed a good meal and drinks instead.

Location check in 🗺 — Bar 44, Cardiff for tapas 🇪🇸
