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 added an info page on the fishery website page, 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

The same resident also turned up at our surgery, held with Nia Griffith MP last week to further discuss the issue. This is not a new issue because it did make the bbc news last year. Web news and video link here http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/wales/south_west/5030872.stm
video of news here
I emailed our clerk to the council, so that he would be aware i would be raising the issue, and i had a very similar response to the news report above.

Thanks for the information.
However, this problem was raised a few years ago and taken up with the Royal Mail. The response was that postcodes were allocated for sound operational reasons and intended for the purpose of the efficient delivery of mail only. The fact that postcodes were utilised for different purposes by other organizations, such as insurance companies, was beyond their control.
To remove the problem, it would be necessary to prevail upon the insurance industry to change its method of setting insurance premiums
I hope that this will be of assistance.

I was now wondering, because I've been told today it was one of the debates in the local club over the weekend, therefore i would love to hear peoples views on the subject.
Do you think its the responsibility of the post office to get their instructions correct or should the insurance companies review their procedures on calculations
please leave a comments to this blogg or email me at slloydjanes@aol.com i look forward to your comments.
