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
Monday and Tuesday the local labour party were out delivering news letters, i met Vernon in Talycoed and was speaking to a resident who was out his front mixing cement he laying a patio in his back garden, we were talking about Hendy Pool and he gave us a possible contact for grant funding.
I looked on their web site and initial investigation it looks good Hendy falls in the catchment area

After we finished delivering leaflets, i popped over Vernons to help set up and load his new lap top computer with internet connections, but i failed kept getting error messages on line, used the same equipment in my house this evening and the conclusion is there must be a fault on his telephone line mmmmmm
Anyway back to the grant aid, I immediately thought of two projects, one is the new play equipment and youth shelter that is almost ready to be installed in the park, and the other could benefit the local youth cricket as the club is investigating the instalation of nets, for juniors to be able to practise? i passed the link on to some of the cricket team members
