"I was out of money and instead of paying for a 45minute bus journey and returning to a vacant flat I had just moved into I decided I would wait for the next flight in the morning by staying the night at the airport. I couldn't check in a suitcase which was empty(which was be refilled in the destination country for the return journey) until then so I had to keep it around me.
While buying a drink I left the suitcase aside a table, while still in sight, as it was too big to carry with a cup and saucer. As I went towards it with the coffee a porter came towards me repeating that I was not to leave the luggage/suitcase aside. I apologised and said ok, yes, but he was very repetitive. I said ok a fourth time. About two minutes later a guard with the full kit came over to me and asked me a load of questions, which I answered. I explained why I had decided to stay the night which I was told at the ticket office would be ok, but that security would be called to me, just to see that 'i'm o'k'. I was advised to return home, which I responded that I felt more comfortable staying at the airport. I found myself having to repeatedly answer comments already spoken from repetitive questions. And of course the guard said I appeared nervous, and a bit upset, which I thought maybe I should agree to, which I did, but in reality I felt harassed and uneasy by this questioning while trying to be friendly, casual, polite, smiley etc."
Not a bad place, but not great either
ok, so it wasn't great or bad, but we still want to hear about it
Um, you may want to rethink sleeping in this place

"I arrived at Cardiff airport sometime before dawn. I tried to check-in but the girl on the desk couldn't speak any English. After an hour or so of looking at my hand tried again but the girl had been replaced by a strange being. I can't remember much after that because of the injection the people from the big hotel gave me, but I would advise anyone going to Cardiff airport to keep their eyes open for those strange people-being-things. One more thing take a packed lunch. I took some Welsh rare-bit with mushrooms."
