The 26-year-old English, maths and science tutor was on her own in the shop when the mystery robber burst through the door.
She said: “The guy came in completely covered holding a really sharp-looking knife in his hand.
“He just kept on asking for money. He wasn’t aggressive and his hands were shaking, but initially I was very scared.
“He said ‘give me £300’ but I said no. He then asked for £200 but I said no again – it was like we were bartering!
“Then he said he was going to kill me and I said ‘go ahead, I don’t care’.
“Then he went down to just £100, and when I refused again he just ran out the door.
“I don’t know what came over me. I was really calm throughout the whole thing.”
quite generic imoCardiff is pretty cheap to live in for a capital city. I hear about the rent that my friends are paying in London and I’m always astounded at how they can even afford to live. In London the rents are double or triple what you’d pay for an equivalent place here.
Recently Cardiff was voted the UK’s most sociable city and I can totally see why. There’s so much on here, and the cost of living is relatively lower, so it’s easier to spend weekends just chasing the party around, particularly when the weather is nice! It’s great that there are so many sporting events on here too, it brings a really nice atmosphere to the city when you’ve got Moto X or rugby fans here from all over the world for the weekend.
During weekend evenings the centre of town is off limits for the likes of me – it gets full of hen parties and stag dos. I'm sure you've seen the photos. But I don’t think that there’s a single town or city in the whole of the UK that isn’t overrun with folk who Vice Magazine described as “dipped in tea, covered in biro” shouting at each other, fighting, and peeing everywhere. There’s plenty of alternative stuff on though and some key venues that always put on great nights, but they’re generally on the outskirts of town, so you can avoid the circus in the middle.
There are lots of great independent shops, cafes, bars and brands based in the city, and it’s a nice feeling to have the choice to support the independents. They bring a real sense of community to the city, more so than the chain or big brand stores.
