Morning all. I’m on my road bike for the morning commute. Here’s the usual view with a bonus piece of unfinished #infra that’s being constructed on my route. This is a missing link, connecting two existing sections. Existing are shared-use, but this is actually segregated, which is pretty incredible for the Vale of #Glamorgan. Our advocacy group, ValeVeloWays is campaigning for much more. #Biketooter #Cymru

In a rest day from my bike today, so walked out of my front door for a lap down to the Bristol Channel coast. Hot, but cloudy, loads to see, not many people #Cymru #Glamorgan #LlantwitMajor

#Glamorgan batsman Sam Northeast is keen to see the county bounce back straight away on Friday night against Essex after they suffered only their second defeat of the Vitality T20 campaign last night in Cardiff by 65 runs against Surrey.

Pub and chapel. And right around the way, the place i honed my seagull defense skills as a young boy. Good to be home. #Cardiff #Glamorgan

Ticked off another short section of the #WalesCoastalPath today, Not the prettiest start at #Aberthaw #PowerStation, but photographic in it's own way. A giant Rubik Cube and Die was a surprise spot, before the usual impressive coastal views of the #Glamorgan #HeritageCoast kicked in. Finished at #LlantwitMajor #beach

Good old Glammy. From being bowled out for 123 in their first innings, they've just passed 700-9. Their third highest score ever.

🏏Glamorgan’s last visit to Headingley in 2021 saw two sessions of a drawn match wiped out by snow. 🤞🏽for better weather, though rain continues to dog the #cricket season. You can listen to our commentary on #BBC Sport website and app from 1100 Thursday and it’s also on the counties’ websites video stream. #Glamorgan #Yorkshire #CountyChampionship These pics were both taken during that last match, sadly behind closed doors because of Covid, with Billy Root reaching 100 off brother Joe’s bowling.

A walk along the Glamorgan coast south of Llantwit Major between two Iron Age promontory forts today.

Cloudy and very muddy in places, but great to get out and breathe the sea air.

I feel that Glamorgan ought to have been a Scottish place name whereas Galloway should not. Apologies to everyone Scottish, Welsh or Irish.

190 years ago a general election was in progress. Among the constituencies which returned MPs #OnThisDay 1832 was Glamorgan. Its MPs were Christopher R. M. Talbot, who later became Father of the House, and Lewis Dillwyn.

A first walk after the frost down to the coast and back. The wind is has south in it for the first time in more than a week, and the fulmars were loving it, messing around in the up draughts. A buzzard joined in later. #Fulmar #Glamorgan #LlantwitMajor

🏏Five wickets in the match for Glamorgan’s Michael Neser on Test return plus 194 runs in the match for Marnus Labuschagne. Not a bad haul for the county’s two Aussies
