Bottom of the Taff Valley, where there is a thermal spring :)

@Noob, Even back then you were the only person to admit not having a fridge to me.
Pontypridd is kind of the start of a number of valleys
11 oclock, Ystrad Rhondda, Bleanrhondda - Rhondda Valley
Windy Penrhys looks over the Rhondda Valley, and Rhondda Fach Valley, near Rhondda hospital/Stanelytown
11:30( North).........Mountain Ash, Aberdare -Cynon Valley
12 oclock, Aberfan, Merthyr Tydfil - Taff Valley

Rhymney Valley hop over the mountain from Pontyprid, 3 oclock

@DD, small world, past that pub every Sunday as a boy..

Well, China will to send one...right Void!

ITV, its only Tuesday, Couple of days, lol
but on 6 out of 7 days I have snap shots of, about 3pm tends to match a good price for the day, but that can suddenly change..

Hengoed Viaduct, its part of a cycle route now.
I used to walk down to the shop on the hill there, near the railway station to buy nougat bars, but dont remember the viaduct being open then, but that was a long time ago..
For as long as there is rugby Tom will be played..

Definitely some games going on, some stocks up big style in the morning, just to fall later in the day..
Uru Metals up 100% earlier, £2-£4, now £2.50 with 50% spread..

LME, Nickel, Bloomberg saying it was a short squeeze on margins...
Russia supplies just 6%

@DD, My GG Grandparents were from the Ystrad Rhondda, most weekends I would walk to the top of one of the mountains, either side of the river...

Going back to go forwards...

White goods used to last 20 years..

There needs to be lots of changes, all these electronic gadgets with built in batteries should be user replaceable.
They all were not so long ago..
I have a fire kindle, its cheaper to buy a new one in the sales than to have the battery replaced..

I had an old samsung S3, spare batteries, perfect working order, used it for the great outdoors but unintentionally left wifi on so when it connected at home an upgrade fully download.. That was the end of that, unable to switch it on.. On/off is software controlled.. A Samsung Forced Phone Upgrade.. Will never buy samsung out of principle now..

Curry's used to have dept where you could order parts, Do you remember those portable B&W Tube TVs with radio, ordered a new integral power supply for one and fitted it..

Sure now when ordering parts there is statement saying you need to be qualified, but there are no checks..

50p on a pop bottle, should help with pocket money too :)

Was reading another BB last night, and end of Feb posters were de-ramping, using the fact that the rig contract had not been announced in a recent update...

@Noob,
MOU would be nice....
knowing the rig is available with the money in the bank
RNS arriving when I am looking, and not the herd.

@DD, Whats the news on the right to repair everything?
People believe you have to be qualified to touch anything these days rather than competent..
So labour costs means bin..

@DD, I hope the inflation does not last, its going to be bad news for people who live off their savings, could mean elderly competing for those low income jobs youngsters start their working life off with.. I remember(late 1980s) going into a McDonalds, South of Germany, American sector and all the staff were getting on in life..

I have some old index linked bonds from the PO, were RPI linked but Gov changed to CPI :(
You cant buy them anymore but can let them roll over, January '21 to '22 paid 7%
So our cash savings have lost 6.5-7% value over that time..

@DD, The trouble is our politicians just need to look good over their term, the more throw away a society is the more it produces, sells and buys, that helps GDP....but we have limited resources, and a lot of bad habits now

@DD, Covid, also the question I ask, China shut down internal flights, so why did international flights to China continue?
UK refused testing at airports, while from around the world the media reported ships were not allowed to dock..
Also before Covid we had the Hong Kong riots, its been a crazy period, and is not over yet..

Back to oil, the West manufactures arms, and is supplying the Ukraine, shutting off the energy supply will at least slow that down.. Thats probably part why the West are making out they are looking elsewhere for supplies..

@DD, interesting comments about the war and oil, but I think this is more about the balance of power, forgetting everything we have heard through the media, "You have to ask why it was announced that Ukraine WILL be joining NATO back in 2008 but it was never allowed to happen..."

All good here ITV, ta
Especially now spring is almost here

Evraz, seems to be avoiding sanctions, big employer in US, up 50% again, at 90p..crazy movemets

Just looking at EVRAZ, even though trades exceeded 17,500 its looks like the price was taken down or up during the Auctions(UT), but not all..

I was quite surprised to see a strong recovery of 2 Russian stocks early Friday, but roughly the same time they were both dumped.. 1 Gapped down??
