³ÉÈËÂÛ̳

The sun's gone and it's raining - it must be time for me to pack up and go to Tenby and smile, whatever the weather throws at me this year. I'll be packing and unpacking quite a bit over the Summer, some holidays, some doing things other than the day job.

There will be intermittent blogging over the next few weeks, mostly from colleagues who didn't see me coming in good time. They'll have plenty to get on with. There were rumours in Westminster that the new coalition government, in the not too distant future, will look kindly on Plaid Cymru's Lords-in-waiting; that we'll know more soon about S4C's future budget; rumours abound in the tea room in the Bay about who will head the Conservative list in the South East - AMs getting very worked up about that one, though it's a case of no smoke, no fire, say the party centrally.

Before I go, let me unpack one more thing - the comments area on this blog. There've been times when healthy, informed debate has taken a leave of absence. Too often debates start to feel like family feuds. It's not exactly an easy conversation to join.

From September the team who will moderate your comments on this blog and on David Cornock's blog are going to be on hand to steer comments back on course if they veer off topic and step in if debates cross the line. The aim? That all of those who tell me they read - but would never dream of contributing to - this site think again; that all of those who already comment have a more interesting time from now on.

Until then, hold your thoughts and entries will re-open to comments from September.
