  1. Today should be my nephew's 7th birthday.

    Instead he will be forever 4 years old.

    Please, make sure you know what to do in case of a fire. Know which adult is going for which child. Practice your escape routes.

    Does the plan change if you have young grandkids staying over?

  4. As I had an office day today and the weather is sunny I decided to walk to work this morning, for the first time in ages.

    Along the path someone had set a fire to burn their rubbish (madness in this dry weather) which was still smouldering.

    Still the local rats were very appreciative of have a cooked breakfast for a change!

  11. Residential fire safety requires physical validation, not just passive hardware deployment. Standard piezo-electric smoke alarms operating at 3 kHz often fail to trigger arousal in sleeping children due to deep-wave sleep cycles.

  18. BUILDING SAFETY: New protections could spare Swansea cladding leaseholders from bills they never should have faced

    Swansea leaseholders left with crippling bills for fire-safety defects they did not cause could finally be protected, under new Welsh Government proposals.

    Ministers have launched a consultation on how to put the Building Safety (Wales) Act 2026 into practice — the law meant to draw a line under the cladding scandal that has trapped residents for years.

    For people living in some of Swansea’s best-known waterfront blocks, the stakes could hardly be higher.

    Owners at the Marina and SA1 Waterfront towers have spent years trapped in what one group called a “property prison” — unable to sell flats that mortgage lenders will not touch, while service charges and insurance premiums have soared.

    At South Quay in SA1, residents in the three Carillion-built towers were hit with repair bills running to hundreds of thousands of pounds — more than £335,000 between them — after surveys found cladding that did not meet fire-safety standards, doubling their service charges.

    Nearby, leaseholders at Meridian Tower — Wales’ tallest residential building, also built by the now-collapsed Carillion — faced a £5m repair bill, while owners at the Bellway-built Altamar block on King’s Road have fought for years over flammable cladding and structural defects.

    Many of the towers were built by firms that have since gone bust or moved on, leaving leaseholders facing the bill for failures that were never their fault.

    The proposed regulations are designed to stop that happening.

    At their heart is a simple principle: that leaseholders should not pay to fix safety defects they did not cause, especially where the landlord or developer is responsible.

    Under the plans, a residential property tribunal would be able to make “remediation orders” forcing a landlord or management company to fix dangerous defects — or “remediation contribution orders” making developers and others pay towards the cost.

    The proposals would also cap or scrap the service charges leaseholders can be billed for safety work, with the strongest protections for cladding removal and for those on lower-value leases.

    Wealthier landlords — those worth more than £2m per building — would not be able to pass remediation costs on to leaseholders at all.

    The rules would apply to residential buildings of at least 11 metres, or five storeys and above — the height that has defined the cladding crisis since the Grenfell Tower fire.

    Cabinet Minister for Local Government, Housing and Planning Siân Gwenllian said no leaseholder in Wales should pay for failures they did not cause.

    “No leaseholder in Wales should pay for building safety failures they did not cause, and those failures should be rectified as soon as possible,” she said.

    “This consultation is a crucial step in making sure the Building Safety (Wales) Act 2026 delivers real protection for the people it was designed to serve.”

    She said the timing carried weight, coming as the country marked the ninth anniversary of the Grenfell Tower fire, in which 72 people died.

    “We have a duty to turn this legislation into lasting change — and this Welsh Government is determined to work with partners to make that happen as quickly as possible,” she said.

    The cladding scandal has been one of the longest-running housing stories in Swansea, with residents repeatedly forced to fight for action.

    Last year, 200 residents packed a public meeting to confront one of the UK’s biggest property management firms over the costs and conditions they faced.

    Campaigners had earlier demanded action over bills of tens of thousands of pounds each on flats they could not sell.

    The Welsh Government has also run a building safety programme, offering developers loans to carry out repairs, though residents have long argued that progress has been too slow.

    The consultation is open to residents, leaseholders, building owners and others until 7 September 2026, with details on how to respond on the Welsh Government website.

    For the leaseholders who have spent years in limbo, the question now is whether the protections on paper will finally translate into homes they can live in — and sell — without fear.
