I'm the Hen Ferchetan. This is my take on the world through the eyes of Wales. While mostly about Welsh politics (that most famous of dour topics!) I try to scatter some humour around, but I doubt anyone but me will find it funny! Have a read, and if it bores you then feel free to never come back!

Paralympic Gold

Pontypridd's Dave Roberts notched up his 11th Paralympic Gold by winning the 50m freestyle today, equalling Tanni Grey-Thompson's record haul. Another Welsh paralympian, 13 year old Eleanor Simmonds from Swansea, took 2 gold medals and a World Record in the pool to add to the Welsh haul today. Impressive stuff.

Apparently four competitors in the equestrian events in the Olympics, including a bronze medal winner, have been suspended after their horses tested positive for banned drugs.

You really couldn't make this stuff up could you!
