Good afternoon, my heavenly assortment of fluffy things...

We have booked tickets to go and see the new #Starwars #Mandalorian film later.

We don't pay much attention to reviews so we will see for ourselves later on.

Meanwhile, we are currently languishing in the restaurant at #Chepstow garden centre.

And...for those of you who like to keep up to speed with our adventures 😁 - we will be heading in a #westerly direction tomorrow to the National Botanic Gardens of Wales, near #Carmarthen.

Carmarthenshire farmer honoured with top agriculture award

Mr Evans, Vice Chair of NFU Cymru Carmarthenshire, was presented with the 2025 Farmers’ Union of Wales – United Counties Agriculture and Hunters Society Award at the FUW’s Eve of the Welsh Dairy Show Dinner in Carmarthen Market on Tuesday 28 October. The award, sponsored this year by NatWest Cymru, celebrates individuals who have made a significant impact on the agricultural sector.

From banking to farming

Starting his farming career from scratch 20 years ago, Mr Evans purchased his own farm and a small herd of cows after leaving a successful career in banking. Today he runs a 97‑hectare organic dairy farm split across two units — one housing the milking herd and the other dedicated to youngstock rearing.

Industry leadership and mentoring

Alongside running his farm, Mr Evans plays an active role in industry representation. He serves as chair of the Welsh Organic Forum and brings his financial expertise to discussions on resilience and policy. He is also a mentor with the Farming Connect Mentoring Scheme, offering practical guidance to farmers across Wales who are looking to diversify or strengthen their businesses.

Supporting the next generation

Mr Evans is a passionate advocate for agricultural education and public engagement. He regularly contributes to Carmarthenshire YFC’s My Food Plate event, introducing schoolchildren to sustainable food production and environmental stewardship. He has also completed the Fertiliser Advisers Certification and Training Scheme (FACTS) and now teaches at Gelli Aur Agricultural College, helping to train the next generation of agricultural professionals.

Praise from industry leaders

Sian Thomas, Chair of the United Counties Agriculture and Hunters Society, said:

“This award is a fitting and well‑deserved recognition of Haydn Evans’ long‑standing dedication and outstanding contribution to farming in Carmarthenshire and across Wales. He has shown unwavering commitment to supporting the next generation of Welsh farmers, ensuring they are equipped with the skills, knowledge, and confidence they need to thrive in an ever‑evolving industry.”

FUW President Ian Rickman added:

“Haydn Evans is a deserving winner of this award. Not only does this award recognise his success as a farmer, but also his tireless efforts to educate and inspire others within the agricultural community in Carmarthenshire and beyond.”

Took my 18 yr old granddaughter to her driving test in Carmarthen yesterday. While she was reversing into a parking bay clearly designated for test candidates, some old duffer come running up to tell us we couldn't park there because he had testee due back and she'd need to park there.

I pointed out that these are test centre spaces and my GD was there for her test, but this guy insisted the space had to be kept for his testee...

It's been roughly a year since I got the keys for my workspace in #Carmarthen and I'm still so chuffed I could make it happen.

It's a sunshine yellow workshop filled with my quirks, happy music, weird podcasts, bespoke tools, and other things I deem essential (like a coffee maker and a napping area).

Shaping your own workspace is magical, y'all.
