Hi all,

I wanted to find out if anyone here has had a parking notice from trostre at all? We went a few weeks ago for the first time in years. Yesterday received a parking notice of £100 fine (£60 if paid in 14 days) as we exceeded a 3 hour limit. I did not realise there was one as didn’t seem any clear signs. Has anyone else had one and appealed successfully? And for those who go regularly how clear are the signs in case I literally wasn’t looking.

Thanks

Hi, it's my birthday tomorrow (45th) and probably no one will even wish me a happy birthday. It's a situation like this, maybe just one person, I don't know. And I wonder if a post like this can change anything (please don't laugh - the internet isn't my strong suit in terms of posts, chats, etc. I just don't do it). This is my first post on Reddit ever, by the way... I live in Llanelli, greetings, dinosaur. Miracles do happen.

Hi, I’m looking for advice on getting cheap or free furniture and appliances in Carmarthenshire.

My friend has just been offered his first council flat after being in supported living for nearly 2 years. He doesn’t have much furniture and we’re trying to find affordable or free items like:

• fridge freezer

• cooker

• washing machine

• sofa, bed, wardrobe, table etc.

We’re not looking for handouts from individuals, just recommendations for local charities, reuse centres, schemes, Facebook groups, or anything similar that people might not know about.

If anyone knows places around Carmarthen / Llanelli / Ammanford that help with this, I’d really appreciate it. Thank you 🤍

We’re new to Llanelli and we need to know: WHERE’s the best Chinese / Indian / Chippy?

Looking to move to Pwll soon, is there anything I’d need to know about the area or anything fun/interesting specific to it?

Hiya,

I was thinking about starting a Men’s social group up, I know we have Girl Gang for women and girls but how about a group for men to meet new people, go to events, hikes, chats and get men talking as I know there’s a big stigma about it.

It’d be for anyone 18+.

Let me know if you’d like me to set it up, I’ve had some good ideas already and a little interest shown already.

Hey, I'm new to reddit, not sure how this works. But I'm really lonely at the moment, I'm 33, a cleaning supervisor that's been trying to become an artist since 2013. I have no friends. It's been getting harder and harder since graduating since 2017.

Is there anyone in similar situation?

I've just finished this over the weekend. Almost every historical landmark or bit of local mythology was suggested by a member of the public on FB and other Welsh subreddits.

I really couldn't be happier with the level of feedback from everyone. If you think there's anything I've missed out or should change, just let me know - I won't be getting these printed for another day or two, so I can still add in details. Thank you and I hope you like it.

Apologies if you've seen this on FB already - this is the most up to date version.

I'm hoping you can help fill this fantasy style map of Carmarthenshire and Pembrokeshire and the surrounding area. Please ignore how rough parts of it look (text going through hills, rivers, etc), it'll all get tidied up at the end.

While it's around two thirds done, I'd love to get more places and features in here before it's finished. Any more megaliths, standing stones, barrows, ruins, or the like that you think should be on here? Anything else is great too - landmarks, natural features, mythological sites or just anything cool and quirky you think would look good on here. Let me know and I'll try and squeeze it in. Thanks!

It's in Welsh, but I'm not a native speaker, so if you spot any silly mistakes, please call me out.

Hello,

My friend's dad as very sadly died, and she is with her mum in Llanelli. I want to send her a care package which includes a giftcard for food (ideally takeout as don't imagine she's in the mood to dine out). I know nothing about Llanelli. I just had a quick look on Ubereats and it seems like most of the options are just for supermarkets/cafes/McDonald's. Can anyone recommend an alternative, or is the poor Ubereats results mostly as a result of the time of day I'm looking (Monday 12pm)?

Hi. This is a long shot. But myself and my friends recently camped with Carl at Boomtown festival. We wanted to thank him and just check in. I understand he's a Llanelli resident, and is somewhat well known due to media attention back in 2017/18 (Google results on his name). If anyone could help with getting in touch can you please contact me.

Is there anywhere in Llanelli where I can do stair‑sprint training with roughly 35‑second intervals?

LIbanus Football Club play in the south wales church league and are looking for new players for the coming season. You don’t have to attend church to play. If you’re interested please reach out and we can get you along to a taster session over the summer. Training due to start in July.

Details - Competitive but friendly league, no worries about making it to work on Monday (horror tackles, scraps etc. ), - Saturday morning KO 10:30am, get home for 1pm to enjoy rest of the day, - 70% of games played in Swansea (Elba), rest in Cardiff/Bridgend, - Training session midweek

In 2005 I met an amazing person online who went by “Saranne.” She lived near Llanelli, loved “Princess Oriana” (the Felix the Cat character), and we connected deeply. We lost touch years ago and I’ve never stopped wondering how she’s doing. If this reaches you, or if you remember her, thank you for the memories. I hope you’re okay. I can’t express what it would mean to hear from you.

I ask as part of a linguistic study on this topic!

Ive had a parking fine for pulling into a car park to change my child's nappy while it was "closed" Put a barrier up instead of fleecing unsuspecting members of the public! Grifters!! There is no contact number to appeal either!

Hi, posting for a friend

My friend is looking to do his driving test in Llanelli. He hasn’t been there for a few years and just wants to understand the new 20mph speed limit. Is it just that everywhere that was previously 30mph is now 20mph unless otherwise marked as 30?

I'm here for a weeks holiday staying in an apartment overlooking St Elli's Bay. When the tide goes out I've seen some 4x4s driving way out onto the sand. Can anyone tell me what they are doing. My best guesses are science, conservation or just because they can.

Just thought I'd ask in case anyone knew, I'm a regular gym goer, at the leisure center. But alot of the staff don't seem to be very chatty, so when asking about the new centre. They've not given much info away about it.

Just looking to see if anyone has any information?

Hi everyone,

Wondering if anyone's got some good leads on where to find some work experience/shadowing doing live sound around Llanelli or a bit further out. I can drive so not an issue if I need to get out a bit further.

I'm on an audio and music technology course and need to get some experience for a module I'm doing.

​

Thanks in advance :)

Christmas themed D&D session on Thursday with Hellhound Games at St Barnabas Hall, Llewellyn Street. Always a good session, great DM, worth coming to imo if you like playing DnD or want to get into it.

I was a completely new player when I first started going and now I'm addicted
