There's an interesting titbit in this article by the chief executive of Vale of Glamorgan Council. Their ban on advertising unhealthy foods, rather than leading to a LOSS in revenue, actually BOOSTED it!

Even more housing development on green field sites in the Vale of Glamorgan. Yet more housing without transport and infrastructure provision. Does Vale of Glamorgan Council intend to fill up the entire Heritage Coast with tarmac and concrete? #ValeOfGlamorgan

Does anyone in the Barry/South Wales area want a 3 tier vermicompost complete with worms?

I can't take care of it now I'm disabled and want them to go to a good home.

Collection only from Barry.

Utterly stunning between Lavernock Point and Sully Island today in #southwales #valeofglamorgan
Looking into a pale blue sky with whisky clouds on the top left filtering the sun. There is an edge of an island on the mid right. In the middle distance and too the right is water and the foreground is rippled sand with water in the low bits. A wide angle photo. The foreground is rippled sand with the ripples pointing to the vanishing point. The sky is pale blue and to the top right is light whispy clouds. Steep Holme island is tiny in the distance and centred at the vanishing point. Pale blue sky above, below that is the edge of a woodland and below that is low red cliffs. Below that is still water reflecting the red cliffs, the green of the trees and a hint of the pale blue sky. The sun is in the top left amongst some light wispy clouds. The sky is mostly a metal blue. The water below reflects the sunlight and there is sand glinting in the foreground.
