A Pinch And A Punch - its the first of the month 
and a happy St David's day to all Welsh men world wide .
Very windy here , just noticed rain on the window , they say March comes in like a lion and goes put like a lamb .
and due to high winds our level crossing is closed again 
, with all the new regulations a couple of years ago they fitted new motors to the gates , modern reg's only allow certain voltage and HP from motor , thus in windy weather the motor can not cope 
, now the union's wont allow a man to assist because a helper on another crossing was entangled with a Automobile and enjoyed his stay in hospital 
, but the Network Rail have promised new Telescopic gates 
, but we have to wait until 2017 
, but the good news is the local town council are contemplating employing a man to assist in bad weather
