Ive look around and I can't seem to find this bus anywhere, there is one 50 at 23:10 arriving at 23:27 from I can see. Correct me if I'm wrong though :)

Saturday is slightly different because of the road closures for the bars/clubs.

A typical commuter-belt part of north-west England
Does that we are now stranded in that part of Llanrumney near midnight on a Saturday night with no means of public transport to carry onwards until the Sunday morning? Prior to that, we had been at Cardiff Central railway station at 2242 on Saturday evening, which seems a far more civilised place to be...:'(
