Walking the Nile

I watched the latest episode of this programme on UK's Channel 4 last night, and found it totally engrossing. We saw explorer Levison Wood walk nonchalantly through war zones, be accosted by various unstable-looking characters, many of them armed, and pass through some amazing scenery. We also saw a tribe that lives mainly off cow's milk, and whose main entertainment is wrestling. It made me thankful that I live in a generally civilised country, with a little variety in my life.

Live music performance at Cardiff Central Library

These take place every Saturday (generally) at 1.00pm. Classical this time, but music varies. Or book your own ensemble. (The audience is out of sight behind the bookshelves.)
