I spent part of the morning campaighning for welsh independence it involved stand out for an hour this morning holding a flag by the organisation Yes Cymru which is trying to galvanise everyone in Wales behind well most of it anyway the cause of independence.  I guess its better to aim to get everyone then you might then get most to support the issue. Wales has been colonised by England for a long time but is still the entity of Wales and different to England so it might as well get the status of being different that of country so it plough its own furrough in the world a scary option for lot of people maybe it is for me even though I have grumbled and blamed england for a lot of wales's problems and they have caused a lot wales's problmes but is Wales ready to sort its own mess out looking at the cardiff talking shop no but maybe I expect too much it will not be perfect if Wales gets independence nothing is and it might still get bullied and intimidated by its neighbour but ...

Well its a chilly but dry Autumn day today it has stopped raining well until tomorrow apparently..  It is very quiet round here these days no one aound like I have said before the community has died here too many second homes. Its outrageous that people who own a second home can get away without paying any council tax just because they agree to rent it out few days a year this seems a crazy rule and is only here in Wales apparently and the nightmare with the labour administratation in the assembly is reluctant to do anything about it or too stupid to understand the problem or something. The local authority is losing out on a lot of money due to the labour admin's incompetance it seems.  We have this assembly but I would rather we had an independent parliament so we could sort things out alot sooner and not have the burden of having to ask the English for everything I am sure Wales is a grown up enough country to manage its own affairs now.
