Work from home coffee shops

Hi all,

I’m currently doing an entirely wfh job at the moment and driving me a bit mad being at home all day, so I was wondering if anyone knew any good places to set up shop for a couple hours?

Just looking for a coffee shop (or something similar) with a good vibe and able to work from for a few hours on a weekday?

Geographically for me, I’d rather not have to go into town if I can avoid it, so anything in the Gorseinon/Morriston areas would be ideal!

Thanks!

Popping/banging noises around 10-10:15pm tonight Monday

Anyone else hear a load noise like that? Seems like it came from the direction of the city centre?

Probably fireworks, but it seems a bit early for those.

Any free on street parking for a week?

Hi, I've got a work trip which starts and ends in Swansea in October. Is there anywhere safe I can leave my car for a week for free? Would be leaving my car on a Monday and picking it up/departing late Friday (around 12pm). And if it's on street, how long would the walk be to the train station?

Anyone know of any part time retail jobs going?

Ive been trying for 3 years throughout college and university to get a part time (ideally) retail job but had no luck. Anyone know of any? My only caveat is that I cant drive, im in the Morriston area so anywhere there or close is ideal. I am willing to go into town though via the number 4

Why did it take so long for the English to come through

Like ik 4mins isn’t that long but for something like this it is like why not put them on the same alert also it should be a notification not a random loud ass siren sound like if it’s really important to know fast that’s fine but this just wasn’t and could really have been distracting for someone if they were like driving like I literally had to use chat got to translate it.

Swansea is beautiful on days like today. Quick walk around the marina with the Canon Powershot SX410IS. Saw a stand off, a bunch of butterflies and even stopped in the magnificent beer riff to whet the whistle.

I love this city.

Lost Kitten in Mount Pleasant

We've had a small Bengal kitten show up at our house in Mount Pleasant. If someone knows of someone who's missing a kitten in that area, please let me know! He's being taken care of at the moment; he had no collar.

Update: The cat has now been housed, thanks for the suggestions everyone!

Anyone been looking for work for over a year?

I had been working for years before having my daughter 3 years ago. I thought that i would have no problem getting another job when I was ready, and damn it's fucking hard.

I can't even get a interview at McDonald's

I even emailed/messaged 100s of places near me with my CV asking if they had work, and I was either ignored or they said they weren't taking anyone on.

The closest I've been to working was a few months ago, but they wanted to pay me £8 instead of the minimum wage.

Has anyone been in the same position as me and had luck in the end? Feeling absolutely lost on what to do :(

Photography spot suggestions!

I’ve started photography as a little hobby. I’m wondering if anyone had suggestions for any really cool locations to shoot?
