Haverfordwest Beer Festival
Posted on 8:35pm Saturday 28th August 2010
Today we attended the “Free” Haverfordwest beer festival in the castle grounds. On arrival we meandered through the real ale tents and food bars, the atmosphere felt extremely warm and welcoming, the air was filled with the sound of Pembrokeshire band the Krooks belting out some pop classics which brought the old castle to life again.

Lammas ethics and ideology, could save the planet!
Posted on 7:19pm Saturday 14th August 2010
Today we visited the Lammas site for their open day. This was my first visit. We were delighted in what we found. Located in a beautiful spot, inhabited by lovely hard working people. The trouble they had getting permission for this project was heart breaking. How glad I am that law saw sense, and allowed this well planned project.

Devolution of powers for large energy projects
Posted on 11:39am Friday 13th August 2010
Following the abolition of the IPC (Infrastructure Planning Commission) I believe it’s the perfect opportunity to devolve the powers for large energy projects, over 50MW to Wales. Pembrokeshire has many large energy projects located within the county and it’s vital that decisions are made locally for the benefit of the local people. I’ve recently written to the Tory Secretary of State for Wales, Cheryl Gillan MP for Chesham and Amersham, urging her to press for these powers on Wales’ behalf in Westminster.

I found this picture and wondered if the person painting it was recovering from a good drinking session, the night before.

The Cost of your Vote in Preseli Pembrokeshire - 2010 (UPDATE)
Posted on 10:40am Wednesday 11th August 2010
Having checked how much the deposit is for a Parliamentary candidate (a measly £500), as this was a cost for the election for UKIP as they failed to reach the 5% mark which they needed to obtain, to keep their deposit, I can now update yesterday's blog.
