Welcome to my online diary, enjoy your stay!
In November 2005 whilst home recovering from an operation I decided to try and design a web page for White Springs Fisheries in Pontarddulais I soon started adding info on the fishery website page of my community activities, but as I got more and more involved in community projects, I decided to start this blog in order to keep my community activities and involvement seperate to the fishing. You can email me with comments at slloydjanes@aol.com
Info about me

In May 2008. As a county councillor for Hendy on the Carmarthen County Council elections.
I sit on several scrutiny committees
This Blog contains a mixture of White Springs News, Community news from Hendy and some political comments and activities, hope you enjoy your visit
I've already covered this topic earlier, but they finally printed my letter in the carmathen journal this week.
I wrote a letter in response to plaid cymru screaming about secrets being kept from them and their disapproval of the assembly's request to improve schools
In his letter (Journal, January 28th , he denies Plaid's involvement.
As a new councillor, I attended a seminar in September 2008. There were representatives from the Assembly Government and schools. Assembly officers held discussions on draft ideas and options ready for consultation.
Peter Hughes Griffiths put out press releases attacking the council's executive board claiming secrecy.
Having done internet research, it seems the only people who have been working in secrecy are Plaid AMs. It seems it's Plaid's leader, the Deputy First Minister, who had not informed the Plaid councillors, because on the Assembly website there is an article explaining the scheme.
