The word I would use is “gwallgofrwydd” (gwallgof – mad). Further north the word “gwiriondeb” may be used.

P.S. Last night! What an amazing goal from Gareth Bale! The goalkeeper was amazing too!

lovely bit of irony…. Bale showing rest of Europe how to do the job. Top Anglo clubs love going off signing expensive foreign “stars” but when the heat is on this man, proud of Cymru, bags goals and makes a simple gesture of loyalty. Stay in Europe Gareth, those English clubs don’t deserve you.

In reply to Wrexhamian. The tie to Facebook is about the most irrational move N.C could have made particularly in view of the recent disclosures. Each time Mark Suckaberg turns up on a news programme he looks a touch more devious/deviant. Like many have commented before he realised a long time ago that by giving a free access he would get uncritical people busting to spill their beans and that info could be harvested for gain. Oh dear, has it never happened before ? Perhaps not on this scale but marketing wonks and other "influencers" have always set out to gain "insight" to improve their chances of creating a positive outcome for whatever scam they peddle.

There are rumours that Alun Cairns was going to come out of the closet and identify himself as a women in order to get a vertical boost from a pair of six inch high heels and to get onto the shortlist to become the third female British Prime Minister. In the end “tippy toes” decided against it because Chris Graying said if Cairns decided to do that, he would come out too and that would make him six foot ten and Cairns would still be a little short arse.

When I look at the picture of May, Cairns and Jones discussing Wales’ post-devolution reorganization, I can’t stop thinking of that iconic photo of President Franklin D. Roosevelt, Prime Minister Winston Churchill and Premier Joseph Stalin at the Yalta conference.

It also makes me think – in the future is South East Wales going to be some kind of an English Sudetenland?

In reply to Donkey Ostler. I got storage heaters for winter. Also got a digital switch on my immersion heater which comes on at set times. Had it for years. Thing is, with the tide, you know what times they are. The rest of my demand is pittance. My phone can tell me when the tide is racing in Swansea, just marry the two technologies.

I made a simple mistake above in my haste. FACTS are that the Swansea Lagoon could peak at 299 MW but AVERAGE at 60 MW (from NIL up to 299 MW), Although the proposed Developer now says the peak could be another 21 MW at 320 MW. The key figure is AVERAGE 60 MW and UK consumes on average about 40,000 MW whilst Wales is about 2,000 MW.
Now then “Greenies” – tell us how just 60 MW of Green Energy at a cost of over a £billion plus long term subsidies will cut Global Carbon and halt climate change. The only good point for Tidal is that it is a reliable predictable minor output whereas Wind Power and Solar Power is insignificant and a totally unpredictable tiny amount.

In reply to Dafis.

There’s no proof that Plaid HQ had briefed a rent-a-comment team in advance of this, but if they did (which I doubt), then they chose people who were not up to the task of dismantling a very reasonable article.
More interesting was James Humphreys’s comment that former contributors (including himself) will no longer post comments. The articles (on the whole) remain pertinent and useful, the comments section is now a joke, monopolised by BritNats and Plaid Cymru drones.

Brychan if the Swansea Lagoon will only provide a peak 60 MW and will only work for about 14 hours a day, how will that power more than a small town part time? What will its costs be? In £billions for just a pittance of power !
It will of course be a reliable pittance.
