It is sometimes said that the history of a town can be seen in its public houses, and indeed they are often among the oldest surviving buildings. A nostalgic look at some of the great hostelries of the capital city.

As far back as 1340 the burgesses of Cardiff employed two ale-tasters to ensure the standard of the local beer was up to scratch. One of the oldest inn sites in the city is that occupied by the Owain Glyndwr in Church Street.

Called the Mably Arms in 1731, it has since been known as the Kemys Tynte Arms, the Tennis Court and the Buccaneer, before taking its current name in the 1970s.

Cardiff's docks naturally led to a maritime feel in its taverns, as the owners sought to lure in the sailors who arrived ashore with money to spend.

From the fairly salubrious to the downright dangerous, he plots their changing fortunes as the city itself has changed over the years.

The paper quality is pretty good as well
Format: Hardcover
I bought this book to replace a compact-version because the font was too small for my eyes. This one is larger in font and has a bit more info. per entry than the compact one. The paper quality is pretty good as well. I recommend it as a resource to have with your desk reference collection.

Soothing, moisture-locking oral coat that eliminates morning dryness without burning your mouth
Flavor Name: Mint, Size: 33.8 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Standard alcohol-based mouthwashes give a powerful blast of burning freshness, but they completely dry out your tissues and make a lack of natural saliva much worse. Biotene Dry Mouth Oral Rinse fixes this issue entirely by skipping the harsh astringents. It uses a specialized mouth-moisturizing system packed with hydrating humectants like glycerin, xylitol, and sorbitol. This combination creates a slippery, lubricating layer over your gums and cheeks that mimics your natural saliva to keep your mouth comfortable and damp. The daily utility of this formula is perfect if you struggle with persistent stickiness, difficulty swallowing dry foods, or a scratchy throat. It provides immediate relief that keeps working for up to four hours, soothing sensitive oral tissue and actively fighting the bacteria that cause chronic bad breath. The gentle, sugar-free fresh mint flavor leaves you feeling genuinely clean and maintains a healthy, balanced pH level in your mouth to protect your teeth from potential cavities. It is a fantastic, non-burning formula to use right before bed or throughout the day to completely wash away that uncomfortable, parched feeling and wake up with lasting comfort.
