@cardiffcouncil hi, I've sent you a DM about an urgent issue: drain next to our property is seriously blocked and our house will likely be flooded if it is not cleared before it rains heavily again. Please attend asap. Thank you. #Cardiff

@BeerNouveau Do you think consumer tastes are changing, also? Purely on perception, feels like the craft beer thing has run its course and mainstreamed (i.e. big names are now megabreweries in supermarkets), and younger people (<25) are less interested in beer than the generation before.

This rules. Simultaneously evokes Terry Riley, Philip Glass, Glenn Branca and Ricky Wilson. youtu.be/Tu_PRf1tyjI

@patto1ro Lots of examples: John Zorn (Naked City, Painkiller, and Moonchild records), Imperial Triumphant, Zu, Kayo Dot, Wolf Eyes (more noise, but metal aesthetic with free jazz influence) did a record with Anthony Braxton, Last Exit(free jazz/metal with Peter Brötzmann, Sonny Sharrock)

Does heavy metal jazz exist? We were wondering in the pub this afternoon. As you do after a couple of pints.

@Statto1927 @CardiffBirder Yes, this is the Taff in flood as opposed to a high tide. Tides don't affect the freshwater part of the Bay, unless they couldn't operate the sluice gates due to tides to control Bay levels.

@pmpoc Vibes, content, podcasts, dogs, smiley selfies on the picket, trade unionism as cutesy social media posturing. What a mess. UCU is playing into the employers' hands.

@MintysGigGuide @StFagans_Museum @AmgueddfaCymru It's quite depressing to see it ripped from its context, to be honest.

Mae mor anhygoel i weld The Vulcan yn dod ymlaen mor dda heddiw @StFagans_Museum ❤️🫶 So amazing to see the progress of The Vulcan @StFagans_Museum today ❤️🫶 Definitely think a few acoustic gigs in here would go down a treat. What do you think @AmgueddfaCymru? ❤️

@edjenx There are currently 22 county councils in Wales. Is he suggesting we increase the number of professional rugby clubs to 22?!

There are some absolute belters doing the rounds. Hard to tell who is serious & who is taking the piss, but, then again, Welsh rugby has become just one big piss take, so what does it matter? American-style animals, ancient duchies, county councils... alignment has many faces.

@virginmedia Are there broadband connection issues in CF14? Last two days Internet has been dropping out constantly - hub and connectivity to hub are both fine.

@WillHayCardiff Also, we would need a functioning, pluralistic media in Wales, that people actually engaged with. Your work is good, but WM has small circ; your employer's business model is based on ad revenue from clickbait rather than serious political analysis, & you have zero competition.

@WillHayCardiff I think also Welsh Labour would need to become pro indy for it to really take hold in Wales. Hegemonic party, and in many parts of Wales independence is still - rightly or wrongly - viewed as solely aligned to Plaid Cymru and Welsh language movement. Plaid is polling terribly.

Support for Welsh Independence is at the lowest level since before the pandemic. According to the WalesOnline/YouGov St David's Day poll just 18% said they would vote for Wales to be independent if a referendum tomorrow. A lot going on here so let's have a look! [Thread]

@IndesitUK Hi, I've had an email from you stating that our dishwasher guarantee expires today. Which is odd, as I only bought it in January! Can you please advise? Surely the guarantee lasts longer than one month?

@CardiffRugbyWeb @GWillmer_Mktg I don't understand why people can't get this. Damage limitation. We don't have the players, particularly front 5, to win games. Repeatedly kicked to Steward, obviously a tactic. Rather than question why, commentary just described it as rubbish kicking and thus fans think the same

@GWillmer_Mktg Because the alternative is not kick, concede possession closer to our line and lose more heavily…

There’ll be a lot of comments about how poor Wales were but I thought there was progress in a lot of areas. The defence was solid and the kicking game worked well. Don’t get skewed by muddled commentary on the kicking! Ended up a bit hamstrung by team selection.

As the Tiger Bay and Butetown areas of Cardiff were undergoing significant redevelopment in 1962, Wales News captured the reaction of locals. For more from 100 years of the BBC in Wales, visit bbc.co.uk/archive/wales-…

If Cardiff Council did this, there'd be no-one left in the chamber.

@VaxUK We have an issue with our Vax Blade 4 - the battery and/or charging dock has failed. Charging dock is showing defective light, battery is showing lights 1 and 3. It will not charge. Can you send us a replacement battery and charging dock? It is still under warranty.

@VaxUK can you please help? No-one is responding to our DM. Have tried emailing you, but no-one responds to that either.
