Thread | Batsman or Batter ?
at 18:29 23 Sep 2021
The gender-neutral term “batter” will be used instead of “batsman,” cricket’s lawmaker said Wednesday, to reflect the growth of the women’s game.
“MCC believes in cricket being a game for all and this move recognizes the changing landscape of the game in modern times,” said Jamie Cox of Marylebone Cricket Club, the Lord’s-based organization regarded as the guardian of the laws of the game.

Thread | Sasha Johnson BLM
at 15:18 24 May 2021
Sasha Johnson the Black Lives Matter activist has been shot in the head, sadly, the reports I'm hearing say she's in a critical condition in hospital.
I hope this isn't related to her BLM activities, we could definitely do without anymore rioting, I hope she pulls through and is able to give the police the details of how the shooting happened, and if there was anything sinister attributed to it.
Any thoughts ? |

Anyone watch this on Channel 4 last night ?
I strongly urge you to watch if you have the chance.
Absolutely fantastic what they did in a very short time, left everyone else standing still.
These people worked a miracle, yet some only had sh*t for thanks, whilst others that had f*ck all to do with it claimed the medals.

Thread | People failing to turn up for vaccine.
at 20:49 29 Mar 2021
More than a quarter of those scheduled to have the Covid vaccine across Swansea Bay on Monday failed to turn up.
In one day alone, out of 1,750 appointments, 492 did not attend their appointment at the mass vaccination centres.
I think that's absolutely scandalous, at least pick the phone up and cancel.

Thread | Wales to ban smoking in certain areas.
at 15:56 21 Feb 2021
I'm a non smoker, but I like a drink, are the WAG turning Wales into a nanny state? and shouldn't they be concentrating on more important things.
The minimum price that’s being set in Wales is 50p per unit of alcohol. A unit of alcohol is 10ml (two teaspoons) of pure alcohol.
Wales to fine parents who smoke at school gates £100
The Welsh Government is introducing stricter new anti-smoking rules on March 1
Smoking outside schools, hospitals or in public playgrounds will be outlawed
People will not be able to smoke in their own home while receiving a service
From March 2022, smoking in hotel bedrooms and guest houses will be banned

Thread | Gleision Mine Disaster Anniversary
at 20:53 15 Sep 2020
GLEISION MINE DISASTER
Gleision Colliery is a small drift mine in the Swansea Valley and
On 15 September 2011, became the location of the worst mining disaster to occur in Wales for three decades (that the UK has not had a major mining disaster in some years is due largely to the closure of most of its pits).
The accident occurred while seven miners were working a narrow coal seam. Following an initial blast, the adit began to fill with water. Three of the miners escaped, with one being taken to hospital with life threatening injuries, while the others were trapped underground. A search and rescue operation was launched to locate the four remaining miners, but they were sadly found dead the following day.
It is thought that the flood was caused by waters entering the mine from an old excavation.
R.I.P
The bodies of Charles Breslin, 62, David Powell, 50, Garry Jenkins, 39, and Phillip Hill, 45, who all lived locally, were discovered on Friday. Prime Minister David Cameron said it was a "desperately sad situation". The bodies of all four men have been recovered. |

Thread | Down the Mumbles yesterday
at 20:21 12 Aug 2020
Me and the missus took advantage of the lovely weather yesterday, and decided to risk a visit to Castlemare restaurant for a light lunch.
There were plenty of people about, but to be fair, everyone was socially distancing and being very respectful of it.
What a fantastic place to have lunch, sat there eating a nice meal with a pint of cold Peroni overlooking Bracelet bay, absolutely stunning, something we would have been doing on the holiday we didn't have this year.
I know it's been said many times, but we really don't appreciate the beauty of our country.
To round off a really lovely day, we decided to stop at the Old Havana on the way back home for a couple of cocktails (wife had taken over driving duties).
3 cocktails for £10, what a f*cking rip off, the alcohol content was zero, I thought I'd be clever and tried to go to the bar and order another, so I could watch them making it, but of course due to corvid virus I wasn't allowed to.
The robbing tw*ts....anyone else had the similar experience there ? |
