The 2007 Eisteddfod has landed in Carmarthen....:¬(

and while I'm sure thousands of people get untold joy and excitement from the Eisteddfod wherever it may be held, Carmarthen at the best of times struggles with traffic if a motorist breaks down on the A48 !! .....let alone 100,000 people all aiming for the same place on the same day and at the same time, I have to say the first day of the Eisteddfod was utter gridlock in Carmarthen, it would have been quicker if they had all got out of their cars and walked, it was compounded by the fact that it was the bank holiday weekend, which normally is bad enough, when Carmarthenshire and Pembrokshire gets it's flood of summer "grockels" .....oh well it's only on for another week.....:¬(

I did feel sorry for the people who decided to get there for 7.00am this morning, I sailed past them on the other side of the dual carriageway, and they were already in a 3 mile tailback, and it was being added to by the second, I should imagine by 09:00am it will be a standing car park again
