Events / South Wales: Nuclear power station meeting

« Last post by MoreTea on January 10, 2026, 07:42:45 pm »

Hallo,
There's a public meeting being held by the local campaign against a proposed nuclear power station in the Llynfi valley, between Bridgend and Maesteg, in South Wales.
If there was a leak or an accident at this nuclear power station, farms in the area would be uder severe restrictions.
The plan is to bury the reactors underground, within the ground water. So any leaks will contaminate a wide area, and affect bore holes as well as crops and grazing.
The meeting is at Betws Life Centre, Betws, Bridgend, CF32 8TB, from 6.30pm - 8pm.
More information on the website: https://nonuclearllynfi.wordpress.com/

Oh yes , Happy healthy and prosperous new year to you and  animals / other family members !
I got out of my lair to find that we have been "snowed in " for the last three days !   (4-6 inches and 2 foot plus drifts)
In past years I would have been out with the tractor or 4x4 but we will rely on of good stocks of last years harvest and fresh  goats milk, enough medication for another week. Who could ask for anything more,

Bonne année à tous.


Hopefully for us it will be a bit less 'rushed' and we won't have to deal with 42.5C again.

I've noticed it seems to hold in the half light longer, presuming it's because of clear sky and moonlight.
We also picked up some more reduced Christmas lights this year, even got them on the barn so it's a twinklefest out there.    + don't need a torch round the yard. 
Sheep are going through haylage like crazy though, do they know something we don't? Or Either very nice haylage or are they just gannets?
