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 .

The ospreys new ground?

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 .

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.

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 .

Labour the new Tory party
at 20:57 2 Jun 2024

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 .
