People queued for hours for balloon festival that caused traffic chaos
The festival in Carmarthen is now in full swing but some motorists waited more than four hours to enter the event at the Nantyci Showground
One driver said: “We’re from Kidwelly. It normally takes half an hour to get here. We’ve been here for three hours.”
We left Cardigan at 10am, and we’re just managing to get into the show now at 4.50pm. We’ve been waiting five hours. I feel tired and frustrated and can’t wait for a burger!”
One person who was travelling to the balloon festival has said it took them two hours to drive just three miles.

were there parking facilities
were there parking facilities for chariots?
I’m not long back from holiday and I have one message for the councils in Cornwall, Devon and the National Trust – Google “induced demand”, guys. Stop providing car parking at ends of pokey lanes.

Man caught on phone driving
Man caught on phone driving to work then rages at police in ‘PC Plonker’ rant
“The officers had to use PAVA spray to incapacitate him so they could apply handcuffs. While being held in a cell he apologised for the incident and said he was going through a difficult time.”
The court heard he had 13 previous offences on his record, though only one from the last 11 years. Representing himself, he said: “I would just like to say I am sorry about that day. I was on my phone. I have nothing to hide. I’m just worried about my licence due to my job. It was just one of them days.
