 I am not having a lot of luck with any interactions with folk these days, I seem to be having to suffer a lot of ignorance which has led to not getting on too well with neighbour or an aquaintance I have known a while or a so called friend or a relative really its pretty dark on the people front, what is the saying hell is other people well I guess it is proving to be the case at the moment  Just watched the rugby, thtat has to be the worst Welsh team of all time, i guess the results corroborate that as they have  now lost 11 games in  row this eleventh defeat has to be the worst I guess.  This jsut adds to the sad destruction of the village fair by the county council, all in the name of health and safety apparently.  I will try to campaign for it get resurected and get a bit of encouragement to do that  but I need others to help too. It si really hard to hear the word 'fair't these days knowing that the bastards at Gwynedd Council killed our village fair with their OTT implem

Today was the day Gwynedd council killed our village fair in that empty space near the hall is where the annual fair should be, its been held for hundreds of year on novemeber 13th but because of some stupid idiot in the coucil, its not happening this year and probably won't again, something to do with health and safety, there has never been anyone hurt at the fair to my knowledge so I am not sure what they are on about its some jobsworth who has got some authority and its gone to his head I guess some dick head. Its is ironically one of the most beautiful november the 13 I can remember its a lovely day which makes the whole thing even sadder really these idiots in the council are stealing a living There is not a lot in this village any more the fair was one of the only occassions where the village socialised and wasn't a dormatory   

It seems the issue fo the annual village fair has cropped up again.  Its the same issue as has cropped up before, the council are making a fuss about the fact that the traffic drives through the village, which is has done for years and no one has ever been hit thankfully.  The irony now is that its probably safer now than it has ever been due to the lower speed limit. Last year they closed the council closed the road completely and the bus service was stoppped so it was a complete mess.  It would be sad if hundreds of years of tradition was ended due to the coucil but it seems as thats how it will go I guess.  There is a meeting tomorrow night in the pub regarding the issue.  I hope people will fight to keep the fair the fight regarding most things has gone from me over the years.  I have witten a not very nice email to the council about the fact that they will kill the fair with their heavy handedness if they are not careful, I don't know if they will take any notice of it but I h

  While using Google Docs. I came across. a bigger. voice typing. thingy. that's not present here in blogger. which is a bit of a shame. I guess will have to carry on with the one that it is on this page which is ok My internet seems a bit slower these days I am not sure whether to upgrade to something that does not lag though its not too bad.  My brother and sister seems to have been abroad recently maybe its time I had a trip away, I have a neice who has moved to australia maybe I could use that as an excuse to go somewhere though Australia is a very long way away and it takes a day to fly there.  The thought of being on the same plain for a whole day  is not great, I may have  to try to sort some health issues out before I ge, I think my brother is struggling to come to terms with his daughter going to the other side of the world but I guess fair play to him for not standing in her way I hope she is  doing ok. I wish I had fucked from here a long time ago but its too late now th

I have messing about with music creation AI tools they are amazing. I have tried to create music myself over the years but I can't compete with AI I am not sure how it does it but it is a kind threat to the usual way of making music of sweating blood and tears and to get songs out I have just finished a song well finished the lyrics and the chords and tuen but not recorded it yet something AI seems to do in a matter of seconds it seems and to a very high standard it can even do them in Welsh which is great I have only just started with AI the possibilities must be endless in it  The first job I gave it was to create a jazzy tune about Chelsea FC its done a great job it knows about the history of Chelsea FC and the players it has great vibe its on my soundcloud page anyway. I am not too sure who owns the song, reading different sites there are different rules and they are vague to say the least in relation to copyright.  the name of the song is blue dreams and I llike it. I then put

It can be easy for disabled people to get caught in the benefit trap under the benefit system in britain, this is n due to the tough process of applying for the benefit in the first place.   Because its so tough people with a disabillity are reluctant to apply for jobs as they may not be able to cope with it and then they would be in a position where it would have to go through the tough process of reapplying for the benefit which in the end they may not get anyway and they  would end up in bad situation. How benefits are decided, who is deserving is a bit arbitory it seems to me  . This makes it hard to. trust that the system will treat you fairly. This can make you. feel that you just don't want to try to get. a job as. this might be too hard to get back. to get a spark on the benefits. The best system would be. for disabled. people. to be given the basics. And if they want any more, they have to try to. get a job which would be difficult due to discrimination. But it might make

I went for walk today with the local blind society, the buses were not great in relation to getting to the starting point so I asked the local community transport scheme if they would take me and they agreed,  I got to the starting point a bit early but there was someone there I knew and who I had not seen for a while so it was ok, the society's bus arrived on time and off weent it was not a long walk, we visited a charch where were we had lunch and saw some greaves of some people who I guess could be regarded as famous, Dafydd Y Garreg  wen the blind harpist and the guy spooner whe designed the ffestiniog railway, it was only a small church and its called Eglwys Cynheuarn, which has not held a service for many years but its quite quaint. At the church we had some lunch and then made our way back to where we came fom along a busy track.  The walk took place in the village of Pentrefelin near criccieth and was about 3 miles long.  The weather was lovely it looks like summer has been

It is autumnal today well even more autumnal than the summer has been already I guess, though I have not put the heating on as yet. I hope I can have another few weeks before I have to, I noticed the electricity bill was a bit high from last month due to the new things in the kitchen I guess a small frezzer which I am have no control over and multi cooker thing which I am slowly getting the hang of. The cost of utilities has gone up again about 10 percent, they really are just robbing bastards.  Things like electricity should be nationilsed to stop the exotortion really. I am waiting for shaver to arrive mine broke last weekend it was only cheap and has lasted very little really, I guess you buy cheap you get cheap. The shaver is here and its ok, it arrived just in time for my birthday which I have celebrated with cream cake. I am not sure where the year go really they are flying by, as are the days weeks and months. I have been in a meeting this week with a group which is trying to st

  I have been thinking about getting a pet a cat maybe, for while now but stil have not got round to it, I am unsure whether I can be bothered with the cleaning or the retrieveing if they are not back here in time, there is the cost if they get ill, I may also need a hole in the door which is not great in house like this which is damp and cold in the winter There is someone coming round to look at some damp tomorrow and do something I am not too sure i have appllied to move maybe I should wait to get a pet until I move if I move The animal needs to have a little bit of an age if they are too young they maybe looking for another home eventually as they may out live me,l I never I thought a cat would be likely to out live me but thats life I guess, where has the time gone I guess I am still thinking about getting a cat so still have not got one

While on a trip to shrewsbury last week I was struggling on the train to find my ticket and the cards in my wallet all fell out somehow I picked them up and thought I had got them all, I found out today I hadn't, the card I use to pay the rent was missing from my wallet when I was going to pay the rent in shop today I have since ordered another one and paid this weeks rent over the phone. I am glad it was the rent one that I lost and not any of the others as it would be a  bit more of hastle to cancel bank cards etc I guess it would have been ok to loose the council tax one too. When coming home on the bus today someone got on and used their pass and asked if another person could go on the bus with them, the pass allows two to travel for free, the other person was not going with the passholder to their destination though, the driver let them get on, I don't the person using the pass understands the other free pass on their pass is for their assistant or maybe they do and they a

There is talk that they are closing down one of the local swimming pools the in Harlech.  I remember this one being built and my father use to take us every sunday morning swimming and he even paid for private swimming lessons there, it will be sad if it closes, people will always need to learn to swim just because they want to go and swim in places which is deeper than their waste and its good exercise and they save people's lives.  Its especially strange that the pool is closing now when a local girl has just gone to the olympics, this has nto happened before and if they keep closing swimming pools round here it is unlikely to happen again. There was meeting at the pool yesterday regarding its future I was not able to go as I don't drive and public transport is poor round here, I hope something gets done I passed the pool the other day around early evening and there was no light in it it was sad as usually if it was open and running properly it would be used to, it is not jus

  So they are thinking. about means testing the benefits for disabled people. This solution. is not going to help improve things  for the disabled people. What should be the aim of governments? really? But obviously this government is not interested in helping the disabled. No more than the other rubbish government was willing to have. disabled people. Though I suppose they did introduce the person. independence payment. Which amounted to The previous DLA? but it was a very stressful process to. apply for it. Very difficult. I have realised this more as well by trying to help somebody else get. the benefits. She's finding it hard going. but helping her has helped me not be so anxious about the process I was really all you can do is fill in the form and just hope that. you filled it in properly and that they grant you the benefit, If they don't grant it then many disabled people will struggle which should not be the case really, its not the fault of the disable person that they

 I watched a program on the telly the other day about the prison's of Britain, it was called something britain behind bars and it visited some prisons, like Durham it also visited shrewsbury prison which closed in 2013 I think and its where executions were held,. Shrewsbury prison is now a tourist attarction.  I have always wanted to visit prison and now I have the chance to go before it is probably knocked down and the land is sold to developers, well done Shrewsbury council for rejecting the previous plans and the prison would be no more. I am planning to go to Shrewsbury on the train which as it happens the prison is opposite the train station which is handy and the train journey will for the day will give me a few hours in shrewsbury  There is a tour there which you can go whcih is guided and there is one I think you can go on your own I am not sure if that just involves just wondering round yourself I think the guided tour is better as you will get more information, I think yo

 I took the bus to Caernarfon yesterday morning  I thught I might go and see the cat sanctuart place as I have been thinking about getting a cat for a while now.  Going there might involves some walking and it was a nice day so off I went. When I got to where the cat place was I was a bit hesitant about where to get off so decided to go to the next town and get the bus from there which involved staying on the bus for another hour and then it would be hour back again, taking the sceinic route to the place really,  I got the village where the cat place is eventually and google maps took me there after a bit of fuss, I knew the place might not be open due to it closing at 12.30 pm I thought I would go and have a look anyway and someone stopped and said there was someone there so off I went I saw a few cats and I guess its made want a cat a bit little bit more I guess. I had to make my way home then and I knew I had half an hour to get to the bus stop, I kind remembered the way to the stop

We are still waiting for summer and its the middle of July, it will be long winter without a summer and that won't be good especially with the price of utilities, but there is nothing that can be what will be will be I guess, we just have to hope and prey summer eventually gets here for a couple of weeks at leeast. People feel better when the sun out and the rain has f'cked off for a while, it has been hanging around like a bad smell for months now and has become a nuisance. At least it was dry today I guess for a change a small consolation I guess I was hoping to go for walk tomorrow with a group but got an email confirming that that won't happen which is a bit dissappointing I suppose, hopefully next month when the group go for walk again it will be possible to get lift as the public transport is shite right now its better than it has been but still shite round here  

II went. to whist drive the other night there weren't many there, this whist ran until the end of last year and stopped for some reason but it has started again I am  not sure how long it will go on for.  It is the same crowd who play its hard to attract new people to take part as its an old pastime that is not taken part in so much these days and I guess it will die out eventually, card games are seen as old fashoned I guess though you can play them online so I guess they still have an appeal I did not do very well, I made basic mistakes, which I guess is understandable I guess I am sure I will get better as the weeks go by. The idea of whist is to win tricks and the one who has won the most tricks wins the drive I guess, there are trumps involved, the rules are simple really but the trick is to remember what has gone before really so that you know what to play and you play with a partner too so you can help each other other out in a game. I most likely will go again this week all

It looks like we are. going to get another **** summer this year. which is the shame really. I think everyone could do with a nice. bit of weather.  There is an election tomorrow. I have not decided whether I'm going to vote or not. as yet. I usually vote for the same party. but I'm not very happy with the way they have been behaving over the last few years. So maybe I won't bother a voting at all. Where I live? the same party wins all the time. though the boundaries have changed this time. So maybe it won't be quite. so easy for that. party to win. I guess we shall wait and see. And if people like me don't vote I guess it reduces their chances of winning. The party I usually votes for. is the nationalist party. I really don't see the point. of them sitting in the English parliament. No one takes any notices of them. and it's just colluding with. the masters. I think they just go through the motions really,they claim to be the voice of Wales in the parliamen

I went for a walk today. through the golf course. I haven't been a there for awhile. due to the crap weather. But I thought I'd go. I'll go today. I still a bit anxious when walking. through fields full of sheep after. being hit by that ram a few months ago. It was OK though I hope after doing it more few times. I might not feel so anxious when go  I. got to the lake. I felt like going for a swim. But I hadn't got the things with me, so I didn't bother.  The Karnataka is there. They will move away quite soon. I'm not quite sure where they go. I think they go to some aerobics colder. It's very peaceful up there on the golf course. I am getting plenty of exercise this week when I went. swimming yesterday and a lifelong walk today. I will hopefully go swimming again on Thursday. Hopefully all these exercises doing me good. It was a beautiful day yesterday now its autumnal again for some reason the weather is all over the place these days, at least its dry, I ho

  They’re easy to please They’re quick to forgive It’s their life mission to make people happy They don’t like it when people are hurt by the things they do They like helping others Above are characteristics of a sweet person, I think the corrisponding term for such a person in Welsh is annwyl, calling someone annwyl in Welsh is translated into sweet in English if I am correct, as the above characteristics would be applied to a person who is annwyl It's a good thing that our sweet people in the world I'm sure they make the world a better place. for the above reasons,

 I got a new conputer the other day to help with the recoreding to music I did use to use this one but it became too slow the one bought though does not have a great graphics card so it will need to be upgraded I guess more expense, that is the problem with buying things on the net you can't test them out first its no biggy though but it will need to be upgraded, I also have the tendency to buy the cheapest thing and most of the time it does not pay as it I end up having to upgrade, I guess I try to cut corners, just like the old man usento do I suppose and I use to criticises him for doing it and I do the same myself, its funny old life really I guess. I went swimming today and the pool was only half in use there was staff training, the session is usually for the disabled, so I guess the people running the place said to themselves its only the disabled so we'll hold the training session anyway, I did mention it to the receptionist who was not that amused, just sick of poeple w

 This growing old lark is not much fun, old age is not for the faint hearted they say and they are right.  Today an already loose tooth has now become loser, and its sore but could I get a dentist to see it in an emergency situation, no chance, ringing the dental service was farcical, they said under the emergency situation they said I would have to wait 72 hours to be ie giving a number like that makes seem more like am emergency I guess where in fact its three days I have to wait which to me does not qualify as an emergency set up, its a joke. My own dentist could not take me as an emergency either they had turned people away, the dentist system is not working in Wales due to being run like shit by labour for too long.  I guess I am lucky in a way I don't have to go anywhere tomorrow so hopeuflly I can be fitted in if not its going to be another uncomfortable day 

I bought a little freezer this week there is not really any room for it but I have made room for and put on a surface in the kitchen its not great there but it has to do and hopefully the benefit of having one will make the fact that its in a bad place easier.  I am beginning to think I should have made this move a while ago as it has dawned on me, that I can make meals a freeze them and take them out when I like saving me having to cook on a certain day and just heat them up in the microwave which I have done twice today.  I usually feel a bit lethargic on a Sunday so it was good not having to bother to cook . i think I need to label the boxes though as I will hae problems knowing what is in what if I don't I guess they need dating too unless I will eat them all the time within three months, my ccousin poisened herself by eating something that had been in the freeezer too long she was very ill  i don't fancy that. I guess the electricity bill will be a bit larger I am nnot sur

 I have discovered banana bread and how to make it, its verty nice and I have made loads of it so far and if I keep on making them and eating them at this rate I will start to put weight one and that won't be good but its very moreish though that's the problem and its not that easy to make,  I was hoping to cook it in the air fryer but the tin won't fit in my eir fryer which is a bit of a pain so I use the oven thankfully |I don't have a large oven that costs a lot to run though cooker is gotting on a bit now and is probably expensive to run. I have ordered a smart meter but am worried I will be obsessively watching to see whats on and then switching things off in the winter when I probably need to have them on just to save money, it will be easier for me though not having to go and get readings, they put a new cover on the gas meter the other day and I was not fussed about having to look for a key everytime I needed to get reading but now it does not matter as I will n

 While talking tothe hair dresser today I made some arguemnts about not having a nuclear power station again here, the one we have is being decommissioned and there was talk of another one being put in its place but it seems to have been shelved which is a good things someone else can have one for a change we have done our bit, and at what cost is not sure but I am sure that many have died due to it being here from cancer or something else.    It probably got placed here due to the low wages so that money being offered would be accepted, it was safe they would build them in England as its an english governement that buys them and puts them in place,  It was good for local businesses I guess to have the power station open but Wales does not need the electricity it produces twice what it needs already so they put the thing somewhere else for a change, not that I will be around when the choose to build one and hopefully by the time they do Wales will have secured independence hopfully 

 I grew up liking motown musicm I first became aware of it when there was an advert on the tv in the 1970s for  a compilation called the Big Wheels of Motown I was hooked I had never heard anything like it before since then I have listened to many many Motown tracks I am sure you can name few, The stars of motown were all over in the united states though and the chances of seeing meeting them or seeing them live were very few and far between, I have seen a few motown artists in my life and even met one of the members of the 4 tops when watching them in a club called the town and country club in kentish town in London I even have the autographed photo to prove to it. I grew up in Llan and the interest in motown was strong in my generation, many use to go off to the northern soul clubs in England, much of the motown output was put out in the nothern soul beat, someone once told me, Llan was about the soul, Blaenau was about the rock music. I think the generations of soul enthusiasts have

I went for walk with the local blind society yesterday for the first time in 2 years and it was made possilble by a new scheme which is run by a set up in the next town where they supply a community transport to take people who don't drive places  I had looked at the bus time table and I could not see any bus that was going the way I wanted so I gave the scheme a ring and it was fine thoguh yesterday I saw while on the journey that there was a bus ahead of us which was a bit awkward that I could have caught, I obvioully must have missed it on the time table, going by the transport did save me an hour though that was not really an issue I made a mistake oh well,  I looked to see if there was a bus home there was but the society's bus was going to the next town where I could catch one bus home and did not have to change, though I forgot my walking stick in the bus station sadly so more expenese I hope its not two more years before I can go again yesterday was veery nice the scene

 It was not a nice day to hang around for a bus yesterday it was raining but its what I had to do, the bus was late,  I looked on the bus service app and the bus seemed to be being held up at its starting point in the next town, or maybe the app was playing up I was not sure as I have not really tested the app yet.  There were other people waiting for the bus so at least I knew it had not gone unless it had gone early which is a rare occurrence thankfully On the app the bus seemed to move again and then it was held up so I was still not sure if there was a bus coming or not then it moved again so I began to think there was bus on its way and it arrived, I told the others it was on its way, in the meantime we were all getting wet, apparentlty the bus had been held up by a broken down old steam train which had brokon down on the main road, the things should not be crossing the main road really as they are in danger of breaking down all the time due to their age and can be dangerous in em

 I saw on the tv that the film 'First knight is on some of it was filmed round here in trawsfynydd on the lake, it starred Richard Gere, who spent quite a few days here and met some of the locals the land used is owned by my neices grandfather, I was at college at the time so was not here to see what was going one but a friend from college came here to stay to see the filming. Another film which filmed around here is macbethe by roman polanski, I was only a child when it was being filmed but I can remember going up the road to see the place where it was being filmed and we had few arrows to take hoome as some kind of momento of being up there.  There have many other films set here over the years some partly and some wholly like the Inn of the sixth happiness and carry on up the kyber a bit before my time there have not been that many over the last few years for whatever reason, just a few welsh dramas and short tv series; I did have photos of the macbeth filming but they have been

 My leg is still a bit sore from the other day's ram attack. I went out today for a walk and I am a bit more wary now after the thing happened. The attack happend probably because the ram got spooked by the commotion in the next field but I have never heard of anyone getting attacked before by one I think its a very rare occurance well I don't know I have not looked up the stats The story is quite amusing to most who hear it though why me getting attacked is funny I don't know but it is funny I guess a big old ram running behind someone and butting them, things might have been different if I had not thrown that stick away 

 I am starting to get worried about how the community pub I help set up is being run, the licensee is a liability and at risk of losing the licence for the pub, the manager is a poor manager and the staff well some of the staff are poor. I have heard that there is not enough money coming in well the above factors are not helping I guess, they just combine to put people off coming to the place I guess which is the last thing that we need. Pubs are closing all the time these days so its not easy to run one so its important the basics are right I suppose to limit any damage from the cost of living crisis and the general chaanges in society.  There seems to be more functions in the place these days and still not enough money is coming in, maybe the will to make the place work is getting less and less, which would seem to be demonstrated by the choice of licensee, or the lack of choice of one I guess. I am having a a wacky day, I went to someone's house and inquired if they run a cat sh

 Time is zooming on by, and there is an event in the community pub at the end of next month and it will be here pretty quickly.  In relation to the event, the pub was shut through lockdown and on bank holiday saturday they want to shut it down again I am not too sure the new people on the board know what they are dong you are going to have to pay 25 quid to go foa a pint, which is not a good look  I went to my uncle's funeral the other day, we had a service in the house and the same service by the grave side for some reason it was quite surreal to be honest.  My uncle was born in the same house he died in and he lived there all his life he inherited the farm which would not have happend today as it would be spread throughout the family or if it did happne it would have gone to court.   My motther received very little from my grandfather's estate and she ended up having to up put up with my father, amybe if she had something worth having from the estate she might not have had to

 My uncle died today, he had been bed ridden for years and cares helping him do what he had to do, he had no quality of life to speak of and probably would have preferred to go with dignity if the option was open to him and not linger for years in bed, he was not in pain but I don't think that is the point its about what is humane really.  Just waiting for the life to drain out of someone is not what life should be about there is no dignity in that. I guess all these people passing away recently has shown again that all we have is today really that life is the present the past has gone the future is well in the future  it has been bleak for months due to the weather but today has been a fairly sprint day and there seems to be a bit of weight lifted off I reckon. lets hope we get few days there were  a few out while I was out walking this evvening its probably the first time in while when I have seen so many out Its still raining here it has been raining since last May really except

 Another grim day on the weather front, it has been an awful year really and there seems to be no end to the shit its fucking relentless the n bastard. I did manage to get out this morning for an hour or so get some things, and got an electric bus there and back for a change no diesel in sight though I might I have wished I had been on one for the journey home. I texted my friend saying how relexing the journey on the electric bus was well it turned out to be too relaxing I guess I was getting ready to get off the bus and lifted the fairlyk heavy shopping bag and it so doing |I farted these electric buses are pretty quiet too quiet for me at that moment I guess oh well. I was reading someththing earlier and the prices on the electric buses here are cheaper than in rhe west, hopefully people will take advantage of that.

 Well Sundays have become a bit of a drag over the years not sure why as there is not a lot of differenc between the days for me these days I guess. Today is tuesday and I decided to go for a ride on the new electric buses, its not that easy to decide to go on those buses as the service is intermingled with the old diesel ones which is dissappointing, there is an app that you can track the buses which only works for the electric ones I say works, as it does nto always work.  This morning I went out and saw there was a bus tracked and it was coming down so I went to the stop and the tracker was right it was an electric bus that appeared. I have complained about the tacker but it seems they are still struggling to get it sorted or are not struggling and just doing when they feel like. I got 'inspired' to go today on the bus afer reading a blog post about the new buses it does not take much to get me  https://busandtrainuser.com/2024/02/24/t22-finally-hits-the-road/?fbclid=IwAR2xK

 I have a tooth which is loose in my mouth, I don't mean its running around in there just a bit loose as there is not enough stuff in my mouth to keep still though the dentist did say brush your teeth often and it will move around less I am not one who wants to clean his teeth three times a day really. So I guess eventully I will pay the price and it will fall out of its own accord its moving a lot more than it used to, I am just bidding time now till it falls out, then I will have to have a plate apparetly and will need to get use to that aswell as fork out for it I suppose, a 'plate' sound a bit drastic for one tooth but I guess it called a plate as it will need to fit in my mouth so the false tooth can stay there, I remember my mother having from a  ery young age, really so I have done better than her and my father lost his teeth very young too I am quite surprised mine have lasted this long considering all the filing I have. Because the tooth is loose I play with ii and

 I see they are building new houses on the outskirts of the village on a bit of land that was empty for years, they will be new modern houses made of timber frame and will be la lot cheaper to keep warm in winter and will therefore have lower bills which are going up and up, they are being built by a housing association. I currently rent a house from a housing association, but its dump a damp dump and water has been coming in all winter, so I am hoping that some of these houses are for rent and maybe I could apply for one, I have many reasons I would like to move and a few why I would not, the garden is ok here is probaby the main reason to stay otherwise there isent a reason really, I have sent an email and will keep my fingers crossed, there is a risk in moving, I could end up with shit neighbours, I do have a shit neighbour one side already and the others are nice when I| see them I guess. From what I can see the houses are semi detached, if I get one it will mean I will not have to

 I went to help out in the foodbank as usual today for an hour on a friday afternoon and when I got there there was stuff to put away from the shopping that had been done, it needed dating too, though the food does not stay there long to go out of date and if it does its put in the best before date expired bit of the foodbank which people can take if they want to.  Today there was a couple of bags of manky pastries which I was instructed to bag they were in right state I don't know how old they were but I would not have eaten them or given them to anyone else I appreciate the thought from the people who gave them but it was just waste and only good enough for pigs really which we don't have, there are sheep around the place though so I took the stuff to them even they did not want to eat it they are fussy eaters apparetntly, I remember my father chucking bread into a field of sheep what I did not see was whether they ate it or not I think not, the ones that I did give the sheep

 its another day o-f the wet stuff it seems to have been raining since last May except for a couple of days here and there, there has to be dry bit sooner or later, I was hoping to the football game up the road but I decided not to being as it has been pissing down all day, it awful, it grey its a nuisance, it also causes issues around the house, the rain seems to be coming in to the kitchen somehow as the floor is wet and wall which is newly platered is wet too, its not that easy to find out how it comes in but they have decided to put a new door in and hope that works, while the guy was looking at the problem he fixed the problem with the front door too it had a big gap in it and it was letting the heat out, the gap is now gone thankfully and there might be a litte bit more heat staying in the house now as opposed to warming the birds outside I had a trip on the eletric bus again to tesco and got the time wrong of the return and had an hour to wait for another one which was ok, not l

 Well the my first week on using the new bus service has been ok I think I have used them about 6 times, The electric buses are a lot quieter than the diesel ones obviously, it can be a bit eerie sitting on the bus and its quiet and nobody talking I guess it was always quiet in relaton to jabbering but now its noticable without the noise of the engine. The timetable has changed too, the other day I wa was able to get the bus down to tesco and then go round tesco and catch the same bus on the way back from its final destination which was a novelty and I was able to catch a bus from a stop which it has not been possible to catch a bus really since the lockdown service was brought in well not a bus a where I live anyway and not one without having to change.  I was not that fussed about going home at that time just wanted to catch a bus home from there from that stop which as I say has not been possible for 4 years due to the introduction of the lockdown service 4 years ago this month, thi

  I have had a stomach problem for a long time and it involved having a camera down my throat, the first time I had one done I was not too sure about whether to be knocked out for it so just take some stuff to numb tht  back of my throat, if you are knocked out you have to stay in the hospital for hours ( though I have had general anesthetic since and signed myself out so maybe its not that much of a big deal).  Anyway while having the endesocopy I saw an old lady walk out of the treatment room so I thought to myself if she can handle it I am sure I can, so off I went and after the inital gagging it was ok I guess aot that stressful, I have had a couple since and its been ok I think.  The last one I has was nine years I know this as it came up on facebook yesterday I had on on valentine's day 9 years ago which I wish I knew earlier on on the day as I went to ask the doctor for a referal for one as I was down to have one every two years   I went to ask the doctor as the condition I

 I once read a book that had a real impact on me, I read it a long time ago, I can't quite recall its name but it was written by an eminent psychologist called Dorothy Rowe who has sadly passed away by now.  The book was about how mental illness affects two different catagories of people who those who are introvert and those who are extravert,  I think the person who started to use the term extravert and introvert was Carl Jung, and this way of dividing people has been mainstream by now the extravert is out going and the introvert is a bit more reserved and prefers peace and quiet and to loud environments.  The accepted definitions of what introverts and extraverts are a bit vague a superficial I guess which is what extravertst get accussed of being at times I suppose. The reasons why someone is born and itnrovert or extravert does have something to do with environments and about how their brains work apparently, one does need more stimulation than the other one from the outside wo

 The people who are trying to organise this bus service which is suppose to start on Monday could not organise a piss up in a brewery, I was looking at the leaflet yesterday when I was a bit bored, the information with the time table on it and I noticed the map was wrong, the had put the village of Gellilydan as be down on the route where they really should have put Maentwrog, even after having two extra years to get things right they are still fucking things up. I also heard that the new service is not serving the far end of Blaenau Ffestiniog which is sad really as or wrong as there has been a bus serving that part of town for ever its not right to expect people to wall all the way from the other end of town in the bad weather, what will happne is that they will say the numbers are down who ues the bus and then they will stop the service, apparently its something to do with the timings I guess they are blaming the 20 mph speed limit that Labour in Wales have put in I am not sure  Any

Well there was no snow today to be seen anywhere so it was another fucked up weather forecast I guess, it was the usual rain and loads of it it did resemble snow in some respects , it was cold  I discovered my phone lens for the camera had cracked I had no idea how that happened but it took me five minutes on google to find the cause, it is due to a defect in the phone but google won't fix it apparently and it could cost for me to get it fixed so I have oreded a replacement from ebay and will do it myself if i can or get someone to help I made enquiries today about setting a group that gives people a chance to practise speaking welsh I think learners need as much encouragement as they can get as they were not fortionate enough to be brought up with the language Its been tough seeing bigots having a go at my culture and language on social media so I guess setting up this group would be my way of pushing back against the dominant culture of englishj

 For the last few weeks there has been a machine drilling behind my house it has been going all day every day nearly its a pecking sound and its recently been getting on my es and while going out and about its been getting on other people's nerves too, after a chat with the lacal shop keeper I decided the best thing to do was to go round and talk to them. I rang the council but all they were willing to do was to check the noise pollution and that was going to take days I guess, So when I|got home last night I went round but there was no one there so I went home and later decided to have a go again, I knocked and knocked but no answer, in the end there was an answer and I enquired about when the drilling was going to stop and was informed that it had finished that day well she thought it had finished that day anyway. I have not heard anything today yet so I assume she was right the woman who lives there they are new to the neighbourhood so I am not that familliar with them, I hope s

Well we are getting to coming out of the wretched lockdown timetable the council has imposed on us for nearly 4 years I got to see a bus that will be running on the new service the T22 today, no one I had talked to had actullay seen any of these buses but they exist obviously I just need to see one in service now. I just went to tesco and the driver told me that there was an electric bus in the new chargng place so off I went for nose, apparetntly they take 12 hours to charge and can go all day on that charge which is handy as there are not that many charging points around, these electric buses will be good if you want to listen to music on your way to work as they are quiet  I think these buses cost about half a million each a lot of money for a bus, roll on the day they come into service now so we can get out of the lockdown shit once and for all, I think these buses will help the tourist induustry around and it nice to see something coming here for a change instead of being closed o
