Much of Caerphilly castle had a dollop of bute cash thrown at it in restoration in Victorian years and gave us a lot of what we had today. Not a bad job and today we could better. Should we ?
Also the water defences were only restored in the 50s - that has to be a good thing ?

Had a little mooch around a soon To be lost part of Cardiff. 40 odd years old - huge embedded carbon. - it’s a poor decision all this for me. Buildings need to last and be appropriately placed. The arena leaves a lot to be desired.
Do love a good building site mind!!

Penarth headland walk image.
Not sure what to make of this.
I like the idea of an easy walk round (I’ve carried my bike and it’s not an easy walk!)
but not sure this is it ?

“No man’s land” this evening @ShermanTheatre.
A very powerful piece by @racheltresize
One man show with supporting voices and missed the actors name but was fantastic. The energy he put in was immense.
Catch it if you can

Spent most of yesterday in H&S training at a big industrial plant. It really was excellent. They want to look after employees, no question.
