I have to make these videos about the history of this place Well what I know of the history of this place anyway and it seems quite popular with some people Some people like to see the videos because they haven't doubts for a while Others they've moved away and like to see the local scenery and the ones who moved away seemed to be getting in touch The people from the village again which is quite nice. Has someone said I am keeping the history of the place alive A woman going to have I'm going to run out of places to make videos about and then I will have to move further afield to make videos places I don't know as much about due to the videos I seem to be getting more followers on Facebook Not that I'm not bothered about getting followers The videos about places in the round the village And I try to get facts about the place I am filming yesterday I filmed an old farmhouse which has fallen to but which has been family for hundreds of years I think it's probably ...

T22 Blaenau ffestiniog to Porthmadog bus fiasco

  A bus service was introduced round here in 2021 to accommodate the lockdown, before the lockdwon there was an hourly service here which got rudeced to nearly nothing in the first lockdown and then some buses were added, which is where we are today a skeleton service which is in place a long time after any lockdown was in in place.  This service hampeers people's ability to move around especially during the evening when the schedule stops very early which obviously hampers business. There was suppose to be a new bus service starting 19 months to take the place of the lockdown schedule but due to issues such as nimbyism and other things it is yet to start I rang today for a starting date nothing was forthcoming so this service may or may not start in the future there was not even a rough idea of when this fiasco of the introduction of this service was going end. The pavement parking in the village here has gone nuts since the pandemic and I think this is as a result of the shi...

A year on

 Today is year on from when we were first told to stay at home and in the meantime i have had the vaccine its unreal having to put up with restrictions and now having to have a vaccine. I was not sure about having this jab but I think there is pressure to take and apparently I will not end up in intensive care well not with the virus anyway I may with the side effects if they are stronger than the one I have had from the the first one of headache and photophobia, feeling out of sorts and the tinnitus being worse. The weather going into the lockdown last year was un real this year is not so nice its cold and feeling wintery last year was summery. Looking back on the post I wrote going into the the lockdown I was not very happy and found it very difficult which it was I guess I got a new tablet today after breaking the other one which was a stupid thing to do. This new one is different it does not have great sound nowhere near as good as the one I broke. but I am sure it will do othe...

winter

  It is another nasty day today a wet and cold one though it is winter I guess and hopefully spring is here soon.  I hope we don't have a late spring like we did few years ago when it was still winter in March. It is another day of the place being quiet I think I might struggle when the noise level goes up again whenever that is it seem nothing will change for three weeks though I get the impression people are getting fed up now and stretching the rules as they are not a lot can be done the language has been awful this crisis ie lockdown why would you put people who are under the threat of pandemic in a lockdown its ridiculous to say the least  Apparetly there are two more cases of this thing in the village I am not sure you catch it really as its very low in Wales right now you would have to be very unlucky. The vaccine you get for this seems to only give you a level of protection from getting too ill and no one knows if it stops you speading it they have dished it out b...
