@AnthonyGri10669 It's the Vikings' fault. Monasteries/cathedrals in coastal areas tended to be built in hollows, so invisible to seaborne raiders. Lessons of Lindisfarne 793AD, etc.

@lodeslan My mother described herself as 'farmer', but if talking about herself/friends/family (of whatever age) who'd grown up on farms, they were 'farm girls'.

@ThatNeilMartin @WrightsFood @Richardvines @sianharries_ Ahh, you’ve already named my two favourites. We tend to head further west these days - lovely places here in Tydrath (which is absolutely no good to you).

@ThatNeilMartin You ARE rugby

@cat_colourfield @CardiffCivicSoc Not saplings. The trees "… are to be planted as Extra Heavy Standard or Semi Mature… The proposed landscaping scheme presents a carefully considered selection of trees appropriate to the context, to the predicted impacts of climate change…". Facts.

@nspugh You're wrong, Nigel. Make decisions on evidence, not well-intentioned guesswork. https://t.co/pnADKxx2Tw

@NHW_Whitchurch @cardiffcouncil @CardiffCivicSoc Read the facts here, then decide. https://t.co/pnADKxx2Tw

A joy to chair the after-show Q&A at #operationjulie - a heart-warming reunion of LSD dealers, the coppers who nicked them, and locals who befriended them. The show's great, too.

[Geoff Cripps @GeoffCripps]

I'm doing a charity thing to raise awareness (and hopefully a few quid) for a very good cause. If you can support it, I'd be very grateful. I'm self-funding the costs, so anything you donate will go straight to Prostate Cymru. Thank you.

@ThatNeilMartin Gwendraeth Valley is hardcore Slimcea, as you well know. If you land there, your non-conformist chapel god can't help you.

[Charles Williams @charleswms]

In 1981 my father took me to Stradey Park just so I could, in some unknowable future, say that I saw Phil Bennett play his last home game for Llanelli. That’s a nice inheritance.

[Charles Williams @charleswms]

@ThatNeilMartin Neighbours with Babycham? You've moved back to Gorslas. For heaven's sake. There's only one way out of Gorslas (actually, six, unless you're being pedantic and exclude the road you actually live on in which case it's five).

[Charles Williams @charleswms]

@ThatNeilMartin Two wheels of Gouda. Is that too much? The cheese monger was really hazy on dosage.

[Charles Williams @charleswms]

Seen a lot of amazing rugby players, of many nationalities, in the last 40 years. But Benny was the best.

[Charles Williams @charleswms]

And one of my earliest memories, aged 4, was my parents coming home to the farm after a trip to Cardiff to see that 1973 BaaBaa-NZ epic. A fug of whisky fumes, fag smoke and excitement. THAT try. Started by Benny, of course.
