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
Info about me
I am involved in the Llanelli CAB
I am the current secretary of the Hendy Pool and Parks Committee
I am also a member of the Pontarddulais and Hendy District Carnival Committee. Which will be celebrating its 40th year this year.
I have been a member of USDAW since 1989 and I am the Llanelli Usdaw Union Branch Secretary, I have done a lot of campaigning with Usdaw and I often appear in the quarterly magazine that gets published and sent to Usdaw Members, here's just one example
I have also been Hendy community councillor on Llanedi Community Council since 2004 and as a councillor, I also represent the council as a member of the Hendy School Govenoring Body.
The contents of this site is written and published by Stephen Lloyd-Janes of Iscoed Road Hendy who will be a Labour and Co-op candidate for the local County Council elections on May 1st 2008
fourty years ago seems like a life time, well next year on june 28th the Pontarddulais carnival will be celebrating its 40th birthday
So the committee has decided on a theme fourty years ago, and the last few days i've spent some time on the web re-searching 1968?
Manchester City were on their way to winning the league, Chitty Chitty bang bang was a big hit and Cornation Street was the the number one tv show.
Then i had an idea, i had found Antony Cottons blog by accident the other day when promotting hendy pool committee member Kylie Hearne in a beauty contest, and since finding his blogg, i've been visitting it every now and then, so i emailed him this morning asking him a question about coronation street
if anybody slightly older than me can remember events that happened fourty years ago please email us, we will need lots of ideas to make next years 40th carnival a special day
