We thought things were bad in Westminster , Sunaks and his misses wealth income just been disclosed , man of the people , my ass .
Senedd and WAG another gravy train of freeloaders on our own doorstep , added to by the fact they want to shoehorn even more of these nobodies into their inner cirle .
Drakeford a dinosaur , surely an obvious sign from day 1 of his tenure , Wales is now in reverse gear , apart from Cardiff , a useless First Minister , gone and forgotten .
Vaughan Gething , so far in inspires no confidence , waffles a lot as per Politicians .
Now trying to dig himself out of a hole over dodgy donations , in a hole stop digging mush .
Welsh Politics alongside the Houses of Parliament debates , we are being taken for a ride .
Monkey with a Red Rosette attached to its chest would get all votes in Wales as my old man used to say , never asked him who voted for , not the given thing then .
Still vote at every opportunity , my right thankfully , unlike some parts of the World sadly .
AMs and MPs across the board , sure there are good ones out there doing their best .
Now for me my trust in any Politician is rock bottom . |

Last week a fella came into supermarket where I work , a TV from my first eyesight contact .
The high heels , crop top and mini skirt he was wearing took a bit of afterthouught by me .
He was a customer , no trouble , got his purchases and moved on , like it like that .
He was attracting attention from all in the shop , one male regular punter did start talking a bit louder during this , should not be allowed out like that , etc . maybe a dinosaur .
Later that evening texted my daughter of this chaps appearence and looks , only as a bit of people watching and banter .
Reply from her was encourage diversity and inclusivity now well done to him out there and showing his true inner feelings .
Seems Swansea Uni and Further Education now have this on their directives to educate .
Caught a bit of a News Report earlier waffling on about the age children should start being educated on Sex Education in Schools , onus chucked back on to teachers when they advise safe sex to the youngsters , another system is failing , teachers to blame again .
Parents get involved as a starter maybe for their children . [Post edited 17 May 0:55]

Had some freebie tickets some years back to see The Mikado performed at St Davids Hall .
Total so whatever attitude followed , no big deal if it is rubbish , give a look .
Somehow I enjoyed it , cast were great , played their parts on stage as per script .
Will support my local Theatre more Pontardawe Arts Centre , struggling now because of Council cuts to local funding issues ,
So maybe said money for Cardiff bases WNO would be better spent on local venues .
Did not attend the show myself , Lindisfane were there last weekend , seems a good event was appreciated by the the community , more effort required please WAG . |

My fault , I brought Corbyns name into the debate , politicians are our very well paid voice in Westminster , Cardiff Bay , voted in on honesty and promises to do good , of course you do .
Z list celebs from Love Island , Big Brother and the rest of these awful TV shows , so many viewers cling to their every word and comments , social media thrives on nonsense .
I just tolerate stuff on line , have a giggle at some comments , it is the tinternet mun .
Sadly so many wanabee stars depend on likes and ticks from followers the ego trip many wanabee stars crave , they do not get , so then resort to topical issues , let it go .
How many of our younger generation are dependent on reactions and I want to be liked .
Sound role models I remember growing up with are sadly passed on , parents , etc .
Unfortunately children today take comfort from their phones instead , so sad to see . |

Few Years ago when TATA Steel was on its backside , alas still is even now .
Jeremy Corbyn , then Labour leader , waved the flag and another PR chance visited my work station , walked straight past me without a nod or acknowledgement , say hello mush .
TV Welsh News later then broadcast his concern for Welsh Steelmaking and survival .
Hoping to see my meet and greet scene with him on tele that night , but he blanked me |

Back in the day , a serpent wrapped around a dagger , or said dagger through a skull were the norm , Indian Ink was I remember used then , love / hate on knuckles , dodgy person .
Too old to start experimenting now with body art , but still even now , not for me .
Seen a young lad recently who had a Jesus thorn Crown across his neck an awful sight .
Some markings I see are fine , low profile and are personal to that particular person . |

Some abiet peaceful protesters ouside Barclays Bank Swansea earlier , pro Palestine .
Why that bank , customers must have been peed off walking into a area of no Political interest either side of the argument , I had been in HSBC , ex Park Inn to some oldies .
Henry Kissinger hat on , release the hostages , those still alive I hope , then talks start .
Israel stop carpet bombing Palestine , Palestine stop using innocent people as collateral damage as an excuse for their actions , placing hostages in the direct line of incoming .
Some reporter on BBC News earlier mentioned Russia could well hang out until 2026 to then take Ukraine fully , alas they are not interested in any peace plan , file alongside Israel .
Nobel Peace Prize for anybody who can resolve our Worldwide problems , good luck .
Just taken my Stetson off and handed it to Mr. Trump , he can resolve the chaos . |

Seem to recall Mel Nurse saving The Swans financially after the Tony Petty fiasco .
Put his money into where he believed in , his club , nice one .
Think he had a Guest House on Oystermouth Road around that time too . |

A computer nerd with fat fingers tried to post a sensible comment into this dedate .
Alas after a few edits and checking facts , trying to update my post I got lost and confused .
To me that is par for the Course when it comes to Technology .
I blame my age , that is my excuse .
Some great replies to my blank messages though , I did have a giggle to my uselessness of using a a Keyboard though . |

Last Old Fashioned No.9 , Centre Forward we had was Bob Latchford , a great signing .
Trundle as a forward got his goals , fans adored him , quality stricker though , not sure .
Michu was somebody to to turn up to watch , a great player for us , injuries did not help .
Toshack and Laudraup had a good eye for the Swansea Way of Football playing .
Current culture leaves me cold , board and revolving door of managers , not good . |

Few weeks ago had to help my son put a £10k deposit on a house , now purchased .
His Legal / Mortgage advisors needed to know all my back history of financal dealings .
Statements , proven records , ID , all double checked and photocopied at a designated
Post Office , then sent to the relevant provider for him .
My wording of that money in the initial paperwork was a loan to him , not good enough . Wording had to be a gift to him , such a small mistake to make , they picked it up and I had to re - write the document with ammendments .
Small print these days is a get out of jail card for many businesses , who does read it now.
Post Office then charged my 13 quid for sending a letter off with an offical stamping on the said duplicate documents . |

Sturgeon and Salmon for starters resigning , cannot fit this latest name into the pun alas .
In fairness a Politician who has stood down , hey , I cannot run this Country , too much .
Maybe an honest Politician , rare as hens teeth of course , has done the honourable act .
Politics and Scotlands Independence claims are too deep to comment on .
Enough issues with our leaders in Cardiff Bay , Gethin next to go next maybe .
Edinburgh , went there a few years back , brilliant trip and City to visit . |

Watched a bit on S4C earlier , to my shame had the red button on for translation , not a Welsh speaker , understand Wenglish to a degree , but that commentary a no go .
Football side of it , started watching and quickly lost interest , nothing there to support either sides for me so turned channels , others will have enjoyed it of course .
If Briton Ferry , Ammanford , Llanelli also defunct Neath were involved , a decent watch .
North Wales maybe should develop a breakaway arm of FAW , then encourage South Wales to get a better standard of player .
As a general observation , WRU have never invested money into Gog Rugby , RGC is the only team I can think of up there .
Maybe stupid ticket prices for Wales games are bailing out Cardiff / Blues RFC . |
