We’ve all heard about ‘Identity Theft’, we’ve all been warned to keep our information save and be careful who we pass our details on to, many of us will shred our bills prior to binning - but now you can go one step further by moving to Neath!
According to a story posted on the Guardian […]

In an effort to improve carrying capacity on South Walian trains, the lengthening of platforms at 42 stations got underway this week.
Starting in Pontypridd, the £13.2 million revamp has already caused problems for travelers with many left standing about Taffs Well station waiting to be bused into Cardiff. And we all know how I […]

Although meant to be in use by 2004, the start of construction on Valleywood has been delayed due to a variety of environmental concerns surrounding animals and sewers. But it now looks like everybody has the green light for construction of the £300 film studio action set to be built on the old coal […]

There’s an article in today’s icWales that discusses the severity of the stress Welsh workers are experiencing. This is far from a Welsh problem - it extends around the world.
The article cites, as the main causes, long work hours, high levels of debt, the sheer stress of trying to deal with a workload that’s […]

A firm in Port Talbot has found a way to deal with the tons of used tyres that heretofore have found their way into gardens, empty lots and the bottom of gullies. The company uses liquid nitrogen to freeze the rubber and then, when brittle, smashes them into tiny bits for reuse. […]

Well, as hard of an act as Dave’s Sheep Poo Paper is to follow……..
The Swansea Council has had a coup of sorts by acquiring sufficient funding to build a new trail to link up the village with a circular “green walk”. The green walk is about six miles long, meandering through parks and […]

What? Paper? Made of poo?
Paper made with the poo from sheep? Our national animal?!
Yes. That’s correct. Paper which is made of sheep poo. Creative Paper Wales, which is apparently the only craft paper mill in Wales, makes paper from the “super-fresh” poo generated by sheep from Snowdonia. After […]

One of our members brought to light the fact that the National Botanic Gardens of Wales is in the running for the Best Environment Project! Why not give them your support as well. Heck, I’d vote for them just because they’re Welsh - it’s an added bonus that they have done such an […]

Funny, my automatic form filler filled in that title for me. Guess it’s not the first time I’ve had this dilemma!
Actually this time round, it’s more a case of having too much material rather than not enough. The Swansea Leader came out today and it full of interesting and exciting stuff. Well, […]

Well, we’re getting close to the end of the public comment period on the revitalization of Swansea Bay (comments due by the end of June). You might recall I mentioned this plan in a previous article.
Moving into the consultation process will give us some exhibitions - that should help everyone visualize what’s in the […]

Well, I’m still so chuffed over the Magner’s win I’m not sure I want to refocus my mind on anything else!
But life goes on and so does the competition for a spot on the Monopoly board - have you voted for Cardiff yet? No? Well, get your bottom in gear and visit http://www.monopoly.co.uk/vote.aspx. […]

And a reminder - did you vote for your favorite Welsh city yet? I admit to switching from Swansea to Cardiff because Cardiff stands a good chance of making the board at this point. I’d encourage everyone to do the same as the other Welsh cities are well down in the pack. […]
