White and Jordan are great on Talksport , only reason I listen to that Station mid morning . Scotland were out of their depth playing Germany , passion and a brilliant support they had was never enough to compete with the big boys . England soon to play , pump up the media coverage to 11 if they win that game . Footballs coming Home sang everywhere if they win the Tournament , please no . |

Nice one , work in retail now and the amount of theft and shoplifting is a plague . Honest and genuine customers are a pleasure to meet , but distraction theives are rife . Growing up to take something unpaid for off my local corner shop was my family name all over our small village gossip , a no brainer for me them days . If I see a customer flusterd or confused money wise with cash , help out . Have returned Tenners and Twenties notes found in my aisle back to Customer Services . That money could be a lifeline to many struggling families . |

My Sister travelled the World following Lions / Wales tours NZ and Oz included . She loved it and paid big money to enjoy the tours , she did , Campese was one guide . Me cannot be bothered to watch Tipcs , AWJ , Biggar etc on my doorstep . World Class players few miles down the road from pass on it . Why is the marketing of the product so poor for The Ospreys or probably punters not going through then turnstiles any more . Recent tele bits I have seen of Parc y Scarlets and The Liberty appear to show minimum crowds attending . WRU will claim the sport is in good health based on daffodi masks and beer sales . |

Just catching up on the news , seems some Welsh AM Laura Anne Jones has been fiddling her travel allowances , get as much expenses as you can on my fuel allowance please . Never heard of her , no interest but another freeloader in the Sennedd and yet they want more on the gravy train in Cardiff Bay . Words fail me on inept and useless our elected Politicians are a joke alas . July 4th and I will vote whatever happens , somehow and somewhere there must be a decent guy to run The UK . Or Woman , PC correct . |

Against the bigger picture of corruption and lies coming from Westminster this is minor. Yes he is a small cog in a big wheel but will his peers now have the same scrutiny put into their financial dealings , we all know the answer to that . Whether he is booted out or given a slapped wrist I do not really care . He will be made a scapegoat and get massive critisism from all sides including The Tories . Good luck with all the incoming finger pointing . Footballers and Cricketers are all at it , in their case using a Third Party to place bets or using online gambling . Surely this guy was not dull enough to wander into Ladbrokes and put a ton over the counter under the eye of CCTV . There again he is a Politician , they all make errors of judgement .

Very many years won a competition on Swansea Sound and was invited into the Studios to recieve the prize live on air , a teasmaid , top draw stuff back then . I never used it . John Sachs , son of Andrew Sachs , Manuel in Fawlty Towers was the host of the Show I was on that day . He was a tidy guy , few years later I think he went up London area , last I heard he was on Capitol Radio . Might have a dig around after to see where he ended uo . |

Chris Smart doing the Sports reports on Swansea Sound . Think the only coverage he enjoyed was talking about golf , went through the motions on other sports . |

Threw the towel in with Labour when Blair and his Human Rights lawyer misses opened the door to mass immigration , their view was it was an extra vote at the ballot box tor him . WMP and Iraq , a total farce and cover up and a person took his own life over the issue . Once the hype and fanfare of Cherie and him wore off , true colours emerged , |

Unless I can hear some real and then kept promises from our potential leaders I will not be voting for either of our current front runners , I will vote on Election Day whatever . Sunak promising for so long to stop the small boats , we have a plan , working of course . Drakeford and Gethin , one a dinosaur and another who will not hold his hand up and admit he made an error of judgement accepting a dodgy donation , tears in the Senedd a no . UKIP /Reform might be my go to X at the ballot box for now , no alternatives either . Hope my Old Man up there in the Heavens , TGWU member like me once , wore a red rosette on Election Day is not staring daggers at me now . |

Alan Knill , wow a blast from the past down The Vetch , always was an honest club player for the Swans back then . Did not realise he was on the backroom staff of Wales these days , shows my interest in our National Team sadly . Game earlier was broadcast live on S4C , checked final score online . The Swans, Wrexham , Newport even Cardiff are punching above their weight in a competive enviroment of football , nice to see for all Welsh Clubs doing well when some voices would want us to go back to our LoW status . Got to keep our National Team as a headline act . Moan about Page for whatever reason , players not interested in travel and pull a sickie . Two non events of Welsh friendies , but ex pats in Gib and true supporters will have gone many air miles to watch these matches , well done to them bucket hats and all . England leave out Grealish and Maguire from their squad , how do Wales compete . |

My age , well North of 65 years she is a talented songwriter and listenable . Track some time ago of hers , Anti Hero heard it on the radio and done some digging on YouTube , really good promotional viewing and the words did seem true to her life . Now selling out Stadiums Worldwide on this Eras Tour , fans are loving it with tickets now close to impossible to get in the UK . A business woman cashing in on her public appeal of course but then hopefully getting through to the younger generation , hey life is a pain in the rear end for many of us . Amy Winehouse and Karen Carpenter both left us for issues . Lets hope this new outlook for young kids brought by this tour changes their minds . Nantywatcher , aint been there myself but my sister has . She won that battle and is still with us now , breast cancer 13 years ago , keep fighting mush. [Post edited 9 Jun 0:47]

So many good Welsh players were not interested in that practise match , club comes first . Seems England lost to Iceland , not seen the live coverage or highlights , no interest . Euros start next weekend for English players selected , this non event game is should I risk an injury or booking then miss out on the main event . Dunno , but Friendly Games appear to be that description of the game now . |

Scotland is in turmoil , Salmon , Sturgeon and Yousaf have failed dismally to lead that Country , back stories of dodgy dealings and accusations have made them do a runner . Will the SNP step up and get Independent from the UK , I hope not . Same goes for Wales I hope . Add Gething to Ron Davies the wildlife expert , Drakeford who lives in the Stone Age and now a corrupt Politician in Cardiff Bay taking a photoshoot opportunity with Kier Stamer . Got to love Politicians . |

Embarrassed to say can only speak Welsh if spoken in Wenglish , can follow a theme then . Caught a bit of S4C coverage earlier .The commentary was unnecessary for this shambles of a football match , just viewing the bit I watched earlier , no translation needed . Awful game in a Stadium with a prize of who can spot the crowd competition . Reports earlier still go back to Bale and Euro 2016 as the aim for our now National Team . Alas on that evidence of the little I watched , them heady days are long gone . That Ronaldo header for Portugal , like him or loathe him was class , Watched the game in Hogarths , a sea of red shirts , mutterings were what a goal though . Looks like some of our better players could not be bothered to make an effort to turn up . |

Wales is stuck in the choice of Labour here as is the norm voting pattern or trusting Tories . Scotland went SNP , that imploded , Salmond Sturgeon and Yousaf all failed and went . Downward spiral for Wales will follow I fear , Independence will not be the answer . Too many liars and shysters in Cardiff Bay , another one today found out , his mates pulled a sickie on a crucial vote to decide his future . Politicians got to love them . |

So many TV viewers and crowds think F1 is the ultimate in motoring skills , of course they are putting their lives on the line every time they strap in , good racers all . C4 have my main look into F1 coverage , I take a passing interest in whoever won that weekend with no real concern of that event . Now for me MotorGP , IOM TT is covered by the obscure ITV4 with their highlights show . They do try to promote the biking culture in fairness , F1 is non stop advertising tool , cars going round and round for over 2 hours waiting for an overtake . These riders are doing 200 mph plus without a seat belt or airbag as a fail safe option . I take my GSF Bandit to 70 and start to panic , wimp me , red line it no chance . |

Though the SideCar Racing might be a bloke on a bike and a side car passenger wearing Captain Biggles type goggles holding on to a roll bar , how wrong I was with that idea . Close to 140 mph with your pillion team mate throwing more moves than Travolta . How do some of them home owners on the course accept the fact a tragic accident could end up their front door , racers know the risks , maybe residents trust the bikers . Either way what a spectacle to see on your doorstep , noise and great skills there . F1 is ok , but so boring compared to this event this week . Only downside would be the costs for fans wanting to attend , prices go through the roof for ferries and accomodation just for one week . |

Am still an undecided voter and Reform will come into my thinking on polling day . Some will argue a wasted vote by me but no other options . Starmer now has to tolerate and allow Vaughan Gething and Diane Abbot to stand as Labour candidates , media frenzy over skeletons in the wardrobe will go into overdrive if they get their seats in Westminster , would he like not to have this hot potato now , probably yes . Gething in charge of Wales , but Starmer needs to back him up too . Sunak will continue to brag about his confidence in the future of the UK . Doubt him and his other half struggle to see a Doctor at Primary care level though. Farage once UKIP then Reform later , a protest vote at my local polling station , a maybe . Will never do a Spoilt Paper return , we have a right to elect whichever character gets the gig , baddie or not . [Post edited 4 Jun 1:08]

Yvette Cooper on Kuenssberg on Sunday earlier tried to waffle her way out of every quesion asked of her on how Labour can control immigration . I know Politicians can try to wriggle out of any difficult situations , she took it to a new level . After even more hot air and slagging off The Tories , some vague notions of no more flights to Rwanda , rightly or wrongly , no control of the small boats , but when they get here a New Improved Border focre to process the migrants , right , catch them before they do a runner though . Tony Blair and his Human Rights lawyer Misses allowed mass migration into the UK way before The Tories , look into your own Parties history first before finger pointing . Lets hope Monster Raving Loony Party appear on my ballot paper , X marks that spot . |

Mounts in Swansea is my go to place for MOTs and a look about , tidy staff , bikers also . Colleague just passed his test and still on his chicken chaser went to M+P Gorseinon for a trade in on his 125 , but a big company like that were not flexible in price negotiation. He liked a bike there but a deal could not be done , sure smaller places would be grateful of the exchange and purchase of an upgrade , his 125 is immaculate too . We talked about his Bike Test , online stage modules including BHP limits for new passes . A word of advice I had from my tutor back in the day was Life Saver Check . Going through Winch Wen Industrial Estate with an examiner on my tail I certainly used that heads up on every occasion possible . He must have liked it and passed me . I still use that practise to this day , habit drilled into me by a good instructor. I despair at some or the youngster who find it ok to go on a busy road on a bike wearing just shorts , T Shirts and trainers for safety . |
