• 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

Ok I'm having a moan here. 2 points I'd like to make

1) Why is it so many people have trouble operating the car park machines in places like Mumbles, Langland and Caswell? So often I find myself.standing behind several people scratching their heads trying to work out what to do. I can't believe all of them are thick so it must be due to the instructions on the front.

2) In Langland and Caswell, there's no frickin mobile internet signal so it's often difficult to pay using the app.

Council, sort it out!
 
I haven't been to any of those car parks in a while, but are they the type that are in Welsh as standard and you have to press the button to change to English?

I know there's a few of those around and the change language button is not always obvious.

Exactly the council should move Langland and Caswell to a new location where there is better mobile signal
 
My mate is bilingual yet he was ranting about the one that was the old bus turning place in Mumbles. It was peeing down with rain and the machine kept cancelling the transaction before he could pay. Reckoned he was soaked to the skin by the time he got a ticket.
 
I used the one in Heath Park a few weeks ago. It could not have been a poorer set up if someone had tried; the instructions board was approx five foot by 2 foot and jumbled with English and Welsh content, the LCD display was face on to the sun so it was impossible to see the screen, and the button labels had faded. A dogs dinner of a pay and display.

Yes they are. Why they have a blue and yellow flag to signify the language change beats me
 
Wife and kids just got back from Caswell.
“A bloody nightmare parking!”
