There is no Morrison’s close to us and I fancy having a looks see it has been two years since I walked through their doors. We normally head to Cardiff Bay store a good distance from home and would cost us round £25 including a small tip by taxi there and back but now it is a free journey if we want to make it.
Cardiff Buses have a bus running over to Morrison’s the number 13 bus that goes from the Ely area of Cardiff, via the town centre down to the Bay and stops right outside the store. Free because of the wife’s disability. She receives free bus travel along with a helper sounds great if you can get on the bus if you are in a wheelchair.
Our luck was in today no competition for the wheelchair area and we could get on the bus to the Bay. It was an uneventful journey, we were just grateful to be out of the biting cold, it was freezing. Something I noticed when we stopped at the Wyndham Arcade bus stop the whole atmosphere of the bus changed with tourists excited about the Bay even in this weather and the Butetown locals nattering away talking about the old days and remembering.
I like Morrison’s shopping wise and not because they sell Chopped Pork at their deli and my reason for making this crazy trip just for my favourite sandwich filler. On the way home, we face the brutal wind whipping up from Cardiff Bay and it was serious cold luckily it was not to long before we found comfort of the bus and its warmth.
