One of the great things about #Welsh is you can reply to all the social media trolls with "Shwmae bot"

More gorgeous views in today's journey to Aberystwyth, despite the rain! And another beautiful display of Wooing the Witch Queen copies at @Waterstones Aberystwyth, where they've now all been signed. :)

Making the trip even better,
Sarah Todd Taylor met me at a lovely café in town so we got to have a lovely hour talking writing and publishing before my train back! Here's to finally meeting online writer-friends in person.

New tram-trains set to transform public #transport in south Wales are in the final stage of testing and are expected to enter service on parts of the Core Valleys Lines this spring. The Class 398 tram-trains form part of the #Welsh Government’s £800 million investment in new trains across Wales and the Borders and can operate on both rail and tram networks. They will offer faster and more frequent services, level boarding, air conditioning, power sockets, improved passenger information and space for bikes and wheelchairs. A total of 36 tram-trains will run on the Merthyr, Aberdare and Treherbert lines, serving #Cardiff and Cardiff Bay. Ministers say the scheme marks a major step forward for the South #Wales #Metro and wider rail improvements across Wales, alongside increased services in North Wales later this year.

A schematic rail map of the Valley Lines network in South Wales, titled ‘Llinellau’r Cymoedd / Valley Lines’ in the top left corner. The map uses red lines on a white background to illustrate various routes connecting several towns and villages—such as Aberdare, Merthyr Tydfil, Rhymney, Treherbert, and Bridgend—to the central hub of Cardiff Central and Cardiff Queen Street. Station names are provided in both Welsh and English. A small aeroplane icon at the bottom indicates the link to Rhoose Cardiff Airport.

#UK has the wind in its sails now, at least enough, for some positive change to come.

It depends, however, on you. You, the #scottish #english #welsh to take a stand and be loud.

Go out there and protest #Starmer and his lies, go out there and protest Fmr. Prince Andrew, protest #Mandelson and make your voices heard about what you want.

The government is for the people, if the people cause a ruckus, they have no choice but to respond.

We are not far gone enough yet where #Europe is the #USA

#Starmer again showing his imperial stance in insisting "everyone who wants to come here has to be offered the opportunity to speak English".

That, my friends, is what the Prime Minister of "a country of four nations" (same speech, today), holds is the language landscape of the United Kingdom.

England is lost. England has a never-ending, navel-gazing identity crisis.

Good: Making your store bilingual.

Not so good: making it REALLY obvious that you have no idea which language the locals speak.

The #Welsh Ministers have a duty under the #Railways Act 1993 to ensure continuity of Wales-only and Welsh components of rail services. Acting as agent for the UK Government, they also oversee English components. The Cabinet Secretary for #Transport and North #Wales and UK Ministers have approved a public sector rail services agreement with Transport for Wales Rail Ltd, alongside necessary agreements with the #UK Government. Effective from 1 February 2026, the flexible agreement builds on over £1bn of investment in the Core Valley Lines, new trains, increased capacity, and performance improvements across Wales and the Borders.
