It’s been a very Burry Port and Pembrey couple of days (second to follow). It was an honour to be invited to attend the weekly Pembrey, Burry Port and District Combined Services Association meet for veterans and spouses in the lovely Burry Port Memorial Hall. Topics of conversation darted around the sporadic bus services many of them have to endure, the lack of parking at hospitals, and the general lack of ‘joined-up thinking’, especially when important facilities are located out of town centres. National issues included, to the disgust of everyone, the cruel persecution of our soldiers who diligently served and are now facing vexatious and stressful charges just for doing their job, an absolute disgrace! Speaking to a couple of gents who between them have had 5 knee replacements, ouch!, they weren't moaning; they were thankful for the small mercies in life. Even though there are plenty of challenges in this day and age, spirits were high and they have a lot to be proud of, having stood up for our late Queen and Country. The weekly get-together is about camaraderie, chatting, and having a laugh, 'the 3 Bs’, one of which is ‘banter’. There’s nothing better than person-to-person chats, all over a cup of tea or coffee, or, as discussed, the occasional Guinness Zero! A big shout-out to Burry Port and Pembrey Town Council for really showing leadership and flying all our flags proudly. It’s a very positive thing, appreciated by everyone. A massive well done to all involved, too many to mention. Thank you for the invite and THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE. Very much looking forward to attending the Remembrance Service very soon. Diolch yn fawr iawn. 🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿👏🙏

The second outing in Pembrey and Burry Port (actually the first) Last Friday it was a pleasure to watch the fantastic Lighthouse Stage School perform their incredible and unique version of the comedic and timeless Addams Family. After months of planning and weekly practice, they well and truly pulled it off. It was fantastic to see the tiny ones play their parts and the older ones perform with total professionalism, they didn’t miss a beat or forget a line. Amazing! Credit to EVERYONE involved who nurtured and honed such talent. Diolch and well done, everyone! Diolch for the invite to watch the Friday preview showing. Best of luck with your next production.

It’s almost like making food, eating food should be something confined to the history, what could possibly go wrong???

Aka, ‘push polls’ to push the polls and not measure them.

Putting NHS patients first: breaking down health board boundaries, ending the postcode lottery in care, and demanding real accountability. Watch my full Senedd speech here: @RUKWales @ReformDaily_

That’s what effective opposition should do and we ARE doing it!

Certainly cannot!
