Kinda getting used to it now, so whatever. As long as FTP doesn't keep fucking crashing every 10 mins... >:(

Cardiff was pretty cool - like a lot of places the city centre is really nice, some scummy looking areas away from the centre but meh. It feels just like England, or at least a wannabe England - often the only hint you're in Wales is from the bilingual signs that say something like "Information" then immediately below "Llwtwltllydygdsglyddlstjylsgl", dead giveaway imo. All the shops there seem to be ridiculously huge - they have the UK's largest John Lewis, a massive Boots and a huge M&S with a fresh sandwich bar, gg bankroll lol.

Didn't get much of a chance to go around Bristol, but did some shopping and bought a bunch of new clothes, sick red hoodie from G-Star and some Superdry T-shirts. Overall seems like a decent place.

I think my volume is starting to dwindle a bit - it's not easy putting in hands when you're losing every session, but I'm hoping to hit 100k hands by the 25th (when I go on a well-deserved holiday). Obviously I'm not gonna be anywhere near my profit goal (pace is about $8k/month) but hopefully I'll manage to make a few k over the next couple weeks.
