• Thank you very much | Diolch yn fawr

    All at JackArmy.net would like to thank everyone who has played a part on this site over the past 25 years whether that is through writing, contributing, moderating, posting or just visting and reading.

    Without any of you the work that has gone into the site would have been pointless and we will always be proud that we built, generated and managed a community that was such a big part of the Swansea City supporting life for so long.

    It has been a pleasure to bring to you the site for so long but the time is now right to turn the lights out for the last time but we do it both with a heavy heart and a sense of pride driven by the so many messages received since we announced the closure.

    The site will remain here for a period until we archive and mothball it for the last time later this summer but all aspects are in a read only format.

    Thank you though for all the memories

    Phil Sumbler
    Owner, jackarmy.net

We've got some great stuff on our doorsteps, why bother going abroad!

We have indeed DT, funnily enough I only heard of it a few days ago, and it's only 5 minutes drive from the Margam turn off of the M4.

Brilliant! I often discover places I should know that are only an hour away or so.

It's a great spot Dar, I've just read somewhere that it's an algae, that makes the water so blue, any idea if that's true.🤔
 
There's another reservoir in that neck of the woods that occasionally has the same colour. Cwmwernderi.

Yes I believe it’s true.
Baglan res was absolutely awesome until the f*cking water board drained part of it.
