• 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

I was down there Wednesday morning as the sea was at high tide. Beautiful. Shame about the dog shit on the prom though.

Needs more cloud.

Turn to the left a bit there’ll be plenty.

And the sulphurous stink that wafts it's way to glorious Mumbles when the rare Easterlies wend their way.

PT - Such the blot on the landscape and disastrous to the environment.

Pan 180 degrees to the vast council estate.

Great photo, mind.

I can't explain it but there's something I find bewitching about the juxtaposition of heavy industry in a beautiful natural setting. And Aberavon Beach is one of the best examples.I love the views, yet somehow in a strange way the grossness of what's adjacent makes the views even better.

Commuting through Stoke-on-Trent in the 1980s, gazing at miles of dead and dying heavy industry under a glorious sun with a beautiful rural backdrop - it was spine-tingling. Weird, right? :)

The beach picture is boring, pretty much like every other beach at sunset pic
The steel works at night is a magnificent sight always
