The Magic of Wales




Vince Tracy's Podcasts show

Summary: The song this week is called "The Magic Of Wales" where I have just spent a few days....the weather was great and out of curiosity we went to Trearddur Bay to have a look at the house that is featured in the TV series "Safe House"....it's a big one and fascinating to see in real life....the song is sung by my mate Paul Damian and was the follow up to my How To Say Llanfair P.G. song and sold equally as well...it is now a track on my Welsh CD album (available from my website www.donwoods.co.uk) .. must confess I have completely lost the thread of Brexit.....the reason I voted to leave the EU was because I was sick of being told what we can and can't do by some foreign country...and having to comply with their often stupid laws...and looking at the interest on my savings made me think things can only get better....but obviously we only got the vote to keep us quiet...we weren't supposed to WIN....so now it seems like all those who stand to lose their large incomes are totally complicating the whole thing...and on and on it drags...and now I haven't got a clue what's happening...like everyone else.....every time I hear the word "Brexit" or see that buffoon Boris Johnson on TV I simply change channels....when I voted "out" I thought that was it... I didn't think it would drag on forever. ..The ladies football has hit the news....the manager has been sacked for improper behaviour...apparently he had an affair with one of the girls in a team he managed a few years ago....shock horror...the fact that she was over 18 doesn't seem to matter...she was one of his players and that's that...it's a shame this unforgivable incident didn't bring an end to ladies football...I doubt if it would be missed...and as for women rugby....no comment. ..On the subject of rugby there is a move afoot to ban tackling in school rugby....for safety reasons...how long has rugby been played in schools?....the nanny state strikes again....I'm still trying to come to terms with them banning conkers !!....and they have changed the system of marking G.C.S.E.s....it's now a 1 to 10 system and the results have been poor....it does make you wonder who comes up with these bright ideas....not to mention boys being allowed to go to school in a dress if they so wished....I dread to think what would have happened to them at my school. ...We are now bombarded with Christmas items in the shops...it's SEPTEMBER for goodness sake!!!...personally I can't stand Christmas...Bah Humbug?... the reality is it's ONE DAY....then we have New Years Eve which is always a none starter...then NOTHING....when I used to play in the band we were out virtually every night up to Christmas so I never really noticed the build up...I think I'll get back on the road....three months of the same old Christmas songs in the shops....help !!!
