• check out all th friendly punks selling the big issue near BHS. they are extremely friendly and almost could be classed in the entertainment category. One of them is especially keen to inform everyone how he keeps his mohican looking# so pert - just in case you're wondering, he uses wood glue. the girls playing stringed type instruements in the mirror door by C&A's give the city a nice classical feel - even cultured one might say.

• Not as many buskers as there used to be...loads of Big Issue sellers some of which can be abusive if you don't want a Big Issue.
• Plenty along commercial street in summer..oh and by littlewoods in that undercover thingy.
• I think the buskers in Newport aren'tbad and at least they're entertaining us for money, not like the junkies and alcoholics who beg for it in every other subway in town!!
• bloody loads of them...even the guy who comes from cardiff who balances upside down in a plant pot, you just got to see it
