i go to cardiff, bridgend and swansea about 2or 3 times a week.
cardiff central seems to be a nice area to be in now!
and the new area of swansea is nice.. bridgend is only the bit inbetween. lol

Bridgend never seems too bad from what I've seen...
Does seem bloody odd though, all this suicide thing, it MUST be linked surely.

wonder how many are involved that have comitted suicide that Didnt choose
to hang themselves, as we are only hearing about them

Gotta say I expected a bit more sympathy towards the situation than this... These kids are someones family for fuk sake.

I can take the piss outta people as much as anyone but too make fun of the area like that under those circumstances? Out of order

Surely the Police must have some idea whats going on? This is the sort of thing that goes on in America with their odd cults, etc

Bebo has been mentioned a few times:

Either way its sad and a waste of life

Odd cults are not limited to America. Look up "North Wales care home abuse".
