Re: Oakwood closes

Sad to see this. Many on here will have memories of going or being taken by their parents and taking their own kids etc.

Let's ban the English during Covid, that will be great for future tourism.

Increased NI costs taking effect, second home triple council tax reducing tourists as landlords sell them on, when's the tourist tax coming to kill off the rest of the Welsh tourism industry?

How long would it take to drive from Cardiff to Oakwood at 10mph?

It does take sometime these days particularly with the ongoing work on the A40 to make it quicker eventually, strange really, as there won’t be much open to go to by the looks of it. Despite running a holiday let down there for 20 years until last year, I never even considered taking the kids there….

Cafes, pubs and restaurants only open on weekends, laundrettes and cleaning companies going bust, anyone lucky enough to offload there business before the influx of houses for sale was very fortunate….as soon as my long term tenant goes I’m just putting mine on auction…f*ck paying 3 x c tax.

I'm no fan of the Welsh Govt at all, and I think they actively make Wales a worse place, but that's not to say they are to blame here or for every business failure.

I doubt the last (UK) budget helped mind
