Something these guys deal with every day, a small scrub fire near some factories - yet the Fire Service around the UK have saved countless lives over the years. One moment he's putting out a small accidental fire - then within an hour, without warning he may well be risking his own life without a thought, to save another.

Just a small example of how every day life changed UTTERLY in March/April 2020 due to the CoVid-19 Coronavirus) pandemic. Just a month ago, shopping in Tesco was an every day routine. You went in, you bought your stuff and you left. You didn't think any more about it. Just a month later, you have to queue for around 10 minutes with tape, signs and notices everywhere telling you to keep 2 metres apart. Large swathes of car park are now closed to allow people more space to get into the queue. People are being let in to the supermarket on a one in, one out (and even couples aren't allowed to shop together). There's a cleaning station to disinfect the shopping trolley (though I have my doubts about how effective this is). Even inside, it's an utterly surreal experience of taped off floors where only one person is allowed in each "segment" at a time. And of course, the entire public is now almost on "house arrest" and unable to go out and about taking pictures and enjoying the countryside as we were able to do, just a month ago.

Since the Covid-19 outbreak of 2020 started - this is the new "normal" of supermarket shopping to allow social isolation. Closed car parks to allow people to get into the queue with at least 2 metres between each individual, and queues extending around the entire car park just to get into the supermarket lasting at least 30 minutes at times. At this moment in time - gone are the times you could just pop down the supermarket for a quick shop...

According to the shield on the gable, this is Hermon Chapel, built in 893 for the Calvinist Methodists. Now, however, it has had a change of name and denomination and is an Independent Evangelical Baptist church and called Noddfa.

The church is set back 55 metres from the A48 St Teilo Street. Trinity is the only English word on the Welsh language information board, which shows EGLWYS FETHODISTAIDD (Methodist Church).
