Anyone in Mid or South Wales ?

I am fed up with daily reports on England and Scotland , only
hear about Wales in the Welsh news at 6.30

I think Wales is quietly doing okay at the moment - I look on Wales Online each day, that seems to have a better finger on the pulse than BBC, and always reports a detailed COVID update each day.

Casdon thank you. I suppose I am being rather stupid but
Powys is such a large county ,Ystradgynlais to above Welshpool .

I don’t know what’s going on in my town !

Yes, we have a moan every day

In fact we used to watch the West news as it was always more cheerful but these days we do watch BBC or ITV Wales so that we know what's going on. The main BBC News is just about Engerland, Engerland

So not just me ?. BBC rolling news doesn’t seem to know Wales exists with the exception of including it on the weather map

Anniebach I find out a lot via Facebook, I get the updates from the Powys County Times, and I’m on the community Facebook page as well. I found out today that the MOD have just confirmed that the barracks is staying in Brecon, so a good news day as it would have massively affected the town otherwise.

Thank you Casdon , I was too dependent on the B & R for so
many years.

Good news about the barracks , what would have happened to the buildings !

I'm in the Gower and that comes under Swansea Bay health board. Looking at the overall figures and R rate it's quite high. Closer scrutiny however shows a lot of disparity between regions that come under Swansea Bay. Rates in most of the Gower are lower than other regions. Rates within the Gower area itself vary from the lowest for the whole of the Bay area to mid range rates. The rate in the part of the Gower I live in is not too bad at all. No cases at all would be better of course.

Yes, Gower would be included Swansea Bay, spent so much time in Rhossili, had family living there for years.

I live in Powys, it has an area of 2,000 square miles , it use to be three counties , makes it impossible to know the rate in the north and south

Anniebach I think this is your area?

Thank you Casdon. Not those towns, further down ,perhaps
several towns are included

I live in Caerphilly Borough

Here’s the MSOA directly below.

South Carmarthen , near the sea. Very quiet here but on a fine day the coastal path is like Piccadilly Circus
LaddyGracie I lived in Ystrad Mynach as a child and have family in Caerphilly

BBbevan we're a couple of miles from Ystrad Mynach, we live within walking distance of the castle.

I am in Coychurch (Bridgend)

LadyGracie we lived in Brynmynach Avenue. All built up now. Family lived near The Pic in Caerphilly.

I'm near Cowbridge. Covid numbers are coming down, albeit slowly. Lockdown is ongoing but it has now become a way of life and I think it will be like this for a while yet. My children are near, and one is my support bubble. I have a dog, my sanity saver, who I walk every day and usually see lots of other dog walkers, so at least I can have some human interaction, although for a two metre distance. I get my vaccine this week.
