Hope I could be proved wrong with figures , but are the younsgters really interested in active sports events at a local level and grass roots or Man City , Liverpool and Man Utd as their go to preference for entertainment on their laptop or phone .
Ospreys have chucked the towel in , a bad sign for Swansea sport in general . |

The Local Miners Welfare Hall and Workingmens Social Clubs were a challenge to enter as a teen , an established member must countersign your admittance entry first young man .
No entry otherwise and move on , members only .
As mentioned earlier my late dads Weekend treat was Saturday Night at the local WMC .
Bingo , cabaret and chat with the oldies , he looked forward to it , mother never minded .
Drove him down in my Triumph Herald early evening , queues were stretched back onto the street for entry into that Social event , forgot to pick him up later though as promised .
Really think COVID did finish the local boozer and knock on effects still ongoing now .
Spoons , cheap and cheerful still thrive in the current climate , doing something right . |

Tenby , a one day attraction to walk around if you can ever get a parking space , nice beach .
Saundersfoot the same sadly .
WAG will bang on about St. David City , Pembrokshire National Parks and stunning views .
Cost of a weeks holiday in a static caravan in Kiln Park or a cheapie flight from Bristol to Spain in the sunshine , no comparrison .
Loved theme parks , old Aberavon seafront park , then Trecco Bay which has now bite the dust sadly .
Disneyland Paris still thrive though , colleague who recently returned from Orlando bought a bit of nothing tirvia with a Mickey Mouse stamp on it cost 40 dollars , no problem .

I hear he shops at one of the major supermarket chains in the Swansea Valley these days .
Lives in the area and pushes his trolley around the aisles incognito , nice one .
My experience of dealing with customers who I know have a backstory I would love to hear their side of the media news , would never ask that question anyway . |

The Stranglers in Bristol October , recent you tube videos are not convincing me to make the effort to attend though , ticket prices , head down overnight hotel costs and transport to the venue to see a decent but not the real Stranglers in their pomp onstage .
Hugh Cornwell it appears finished after the band became mainstream , he did not want the fame .
Like to remember them as bassist JJ Brunel wanting to fight with some of the crowd during a gig at The Top Rank Swansea .
Always remember The Skids were the support act , they were impressive too . |

Cardiff Arms now long gone was the place to be for local live music .
Adam and Eve was another hotspot , acts scheduled to start as the punters returned to the boozer from The Stadium .
Badfinger , never looked into their Swansea backstory in too much depth though .
Bowie , glam rock and punk , in some small doses , were my music oulets back in the day . |

Two tier Kier has promised another £1.6 billion of UK funds to keep this bun fight going .
Sure the NHS and border forces would love that investment into their awful funding .
Prove that the funding has come from frozen Russian assets , not seen the proof or wording of that claim strangely . He did bang on about defence jobs in Belfast as an asset .
Sad to say but The Don does really hold all the cards in this horror , he knows it too . |

Crimson Tide playing alongside Denzil Washington in the submarine drama , brilliant .
That era of actors ,Truth , you cant handle the truth by Jack Nicholson is still the the ultimate line of that eras filmaking .
CGI now dominates the movies and public lets go and see a film thinking attitude .
Get the popcorn and let your mind go awal for a few hours , been there myself .
As a side note seems classic old school performers , Kate Bush , Annie Lennox and others are concerned AI will take over the business of making music .

Hamas parading released hostages on stage like some of cabaret and propaganda show .
No wonder Benny is peed off and delaying the next release of 600 prisoners from Israel .
There should be a truce and ceasefire agreement subject to some sort of appeasement from both sides .
It will never happen soon in Israel or Palestine given the current climate sadly .

Sometimes best to leave a classic film as a stand alone , in this case an obvious call .
Hit the Welsh and Swansea humour spot on as a one off film , remake or follow ups , no .
Star Wars lost me after the first two screenings , went silly after that no Idea of the plot .
Aliens franchises run until it totally ran out of steam , yet I hear Ripley will return in another sequel , let it go as a cash cow . CGI will ruin it anyway .
Mentioned earlier , the added scene at the end for the American audience market .
Did not realise that and maybe reasons .
Twin Towns and Dylan Thomas are maybe not on the same script . |
