President & rep @ProspectUnion (heritage, aviation, energy, science, public and civil service, #itt, @bectu), @lepub board, patent examiner. Messy, self-winding, mostly self-righting.
Posting for me and the cats I live with: Sprout, Calvin, Ada and Beans
So pround to be part of Le Pub. Community ownership has allowed us to become a Real Living Wage employer. And now it’s helped secure our future! www.walesonline.co.uk/whats-on/mus...
Future of much loved Welsh music venue safeguarded
It has been a cornerstone of the city's music scene since it opened in 1992

⚠️ Pontypridd has been hit by devastating floods and our wonderful independent bookshop, Storyville Books, has seen much of its stock destroyed.

If you’re able to buy a book from them, this would go such a long way to help support them rebuild in the aftermath.

Nestled in the rolling hills of the South Wales valleys, we are the only independent bookshop in Pontypridd, selling new books and more.

More feline friendliness today. L-to-r Sprout, Beans and Calvin warming up.

Finally for the introductions, this is Beans, the most recent addition to the household and the most majestically befurred. She is settling here really well and seems to have a bit of a soft spot for Calvin.

Civil service pay isn't fit for purpose. The process is bloated and the outcomes are poor.

Is the fight for a new pay review body doomed to fail? Oh no it isn't!
Unions calling for an end to the stale and flawed pay remit guidance for civil servants aren't pantomime villains – the system needs to change

Introducing Ada! Ada was rescued late last year and rehomed to us once her kittens had all been adopted. She's only young herself and is a bundle of energy and attitude. When she's not running in her exercise wheel or taking running jumps up door frames she enjoys keeping the rest of us in check.

Today, meet Calvin. Calvin has was found living in the garden as a young adult and has been living inside for around 9 years now. He's still prone to panics and has an absolute terror of outdoor shoes but is friendly and growing in confidence all the time. #bravecalvin

Some introductions: here is Sprout. Sprout is indeterminately old. She used to live in the garden and was bullied by other strays until she moved in >10 years ago. She is deaf, still quite nervous and a constant battle with knots. Likes sleeping somewhere warm.

Ada is convinced she should be able to go all the way round.
