Planning on visiting a few places in the area, am guessing Techniquest/Red Dragon centre both have their own car parks?
Can you leave the car there or do you have to move it when ypu leave?

TIA

Haven't used the specidied car aprks but whenever we go (live quite close) there's never any problem- indeed justa sked Dh and he said they have a massive car park. You could leave the car there, but if you're going into Cardiff central its further than it looks- I usually move car then

Are you going to visit your OH?

I know torchwood is filming atm so maybe some of them around though [hopeful smiley]

Have you ever been on the tour of the millenium centre?We can use Tesco vouchers so wouldn't have to pay but wondered what it was like.

Mermaid Quay car park is opposite techniquest - £1 per hour up to 4 hours.
Red Dragon Centre is a drive away, free to users ( get ticket stamped inside)
Public car park on Havannah St, next to St Davids hotel is £4.20 for 24 hours, if you are planning on being in the area for longer, it is much cheaper and only a few moments extra walk.

Will be nice to see you if you come this way.

If you come when we're not here, have lunch either at The Ship or get a packed lunch from fresh start on the common and have a picnic there- lovely .
