  1. It's odd that journalists are variously expressing surprise and obtaining scoops about Nathan Gill's links to Russia.

    Nation.Cymru broke this story in, er, 2023, apparently to almost no interest from other news outlets:

    Gill, once a 'bishop' in the local Mormons, was always in the news, not least for his merry use of many foreign workers in his family business:

  2. Strangely not very cold at all on the east coast of Anglesey today. Ideal for doing a bit of hunting for tombstone graffiti. In a very overgrown old chapel cemetery, this was quite a task!

  3. The 1895, Swiss-manufactured rack-and-pinion steam loco 'Wyddfa' getting ready for yet another ascent to 1085m from Llanberis (25/6/2025).

  4. Some of the longest virga formations I've ever seen this afternoon.

    This is an essentially 180 degree stitch:

  8. Pure capitalism: increase profits through exporting the costs onto human lives.

    20s and 30s workers, now suffering from a disease we thought was largely a thing of the past.

  9. Please sign this, to discourage new PFI - the funding model that landed our NHS with crippling infrastructure contracts, many still in force, that would never have arisen, had the state funded past NHS improvements directly.

    PFI is the very worst of political pazzazz today at the financial expense of tomorrow.

  10. Just when you thought it couldn't get worse: more Cummings!

    Here's my three-word slogan...

  11. Yes, that's right. There is nowhere for local people to buy, precisely because the various Retch newspaper titles have been relentlessly publishing 'the village in Wales where you can buy four houses for the price of one in England' articles for years.

  12. What better example of how unimportant Wales and Welsh is to the Tories than this letter from parachuted-in MP for Anglesey, Virginia Crosbie?

    A letter in Welsh that switches to English, mid-flow!

    Even the QR code caption is a mess.

  13. I'm rarely prompted to make a complaint to OFCOM.

    But Nick Ferrari, at 09:46BST today, casually threw-in the assertion, in relation to protesters against the genocide in Gaza, that "much of it is driven by hatred towards Israel".

    Utter, unsupported drivel that does rather characterise Ferrari's populist-themed programme.

  14. Latest weekender idiots calling for help off the north Wales coast.

    They decided to go paddle boarding. The forecast is clear as to this being a very bad idea; force 4-6, occasionally 7.

    And that's without taking some of the strongest tidal currents to be found anywhere into account.

  19. As we batten down the hatches for storm #darragh spare a thought for the boys and girls of the Coastguard, in the air, land and sea and for the lifeboats, up and down this and neighbouring countries, some of whom will have to deploy into the tempest

  24. Seems to be sad news with an ongoing search for a missing diver off the northern Llŷn Peninsula. A rebreather has been found just off the coast. Lifeboat and coastguard helicopter on-scene and searching.
