Do the people of Wales know that the welsh Government’s “Renting Homes Act” has caused colossal housing shortages. I

Was talking to some friends the other day and they were saying that where they live there are hotels completely taken over where families of 4 are stuck in one room with no obvious sign of getting properties . If the statistics are to be believed , Wales is suffering huge housing shortages with thousands of people waiting to be allocated homes , with up to 6 year waiting lists . It is the worst housing shortage in Welsh history .

If this is the case, do the people of Wales acknowledge that this has been caused by the PR sector leaving the market and was it worth upgrading the conditions of people that rent compared to thousands upon thousands not having a home at all . As a side note , the Welsh government has pledged to inject money into building new homes every year , but targets have never been met (not once ) and average times for acquisition of land /planning and build times can be 3/4 years .

who is it appropriate to gift lovespoons to?

hi there! i’m an american student who recently studied abroad at Swansea University. i had a wonderful time and can’t wait to visit again! while there, i bought many lovespoons, some for myself and some for gifts. i know that traditionally lovespoons are given as a romantic gesture, so i’m wondering if it would be inappropriate to gift them to people like academic advisors or colleagues (as thank-yous for helping me with my thesis, for example)? some of the ones i gave to family have hearts but the ones i would give to others have daffodils, which i know usually means “affection.” are lovespoons ever gifted in gestures of platonic or professional appreciation, or would it be unusual/awkward? should i stick to giving them to closer friends? thank you so much!

Why is rugby the most popular sport in Wales rather than football like the rest of the UK?

Why is rugby a mostly blue collar sport in Wales rather than a white collar sport like in England, Scotland and Ireland?

How does the popularity of rugby in Wales compare to football nowadays?

What’s on around South Wales this weekend?

Heya!

Posted in r/Cardiff a few weeks back looking for things to do and had some great suggestions. I hope this is alright to post here

I’m suddenly free today and tomorrow and wondered if anyone knew of anything fun that’s on in the daytime today and/or tomorrow? I’m pretty rubbish at finding things and usually just go on suggestions, if anyone has any info or ideas I’d really appreciate it.

Thanks!

Suprise trip to Betws-y-coed, help?

I'm looking at booking a night for my mum in Betws where she can take her dog. She has a two year old boxer who is really friendly but very excitable. Loves to say hi to other dogs and people but tends to get excited and jump up. So here lies my problem. I don't want to book a hotel where it's going to be more stressful than relaxing for my mum. I was thinking maybe a cabin or something if the like. Preferably in walking distance to the main shops and area and even better if it has a dog friendly bar or restaurant attached. If you have any recommendations I would be truly grateful. My mum deserves the world!
