You may have heard of Rules Restaurant, the oldest restaurant in London. Well I spoke with Brian Silva, their well-known barman and cocktail supremo. He's also now running a new cocktail course where you can learn from the maestro himself. working at some of the greats including the Cumberland Hotel he certainly knows his stuff.


He had a wealth of stories to tell but we couldn't mention names.


And Peter Maylin has been the doorman there for over two years with experience at such top spots as the Savoy. Peter talks about Rules Restaurant with great enthusiasm and any boss would be more than pleased to have such a dedicated member of staff.


The restaurant is of another age and venison, pheasant and wild duck are amongst the most popular dishes.


I watched diners being treated like royalty and thought "This is the place for old fashioned service and opulent surroundings. Take a look at their website at http://www.rules.co.uk.

What is the link with my guest on Thursday who owns Pollock's Toy Theatres shop in Covent Garden Market  and was in Coronation Street as a long standing character that we loved? I remember building one of these myself, in fact several and also with my children. Listen on Thursday at 7pm You could visit the website at http://www.pollockstoymuseum.com/index.html

Here is the link.      You'll remember Derek Wilton in Coronation Street played by Peter Barlow. We'll he spoke with me and we recorded an interview about the life and times of Toy Theatres. He owns the Benjamin Pollock Toy Shop in Covent Garden Market and is often there. Climb the stairs and you'll enter an world of toy theatres and much more. Buy a theatre and you'll get pure enjoyment in making ion up and performaing a short play. If you've got children, grandchildren or just young friends you'll see amazement in their eyes as they help you. Peter has published a book called Toy Theatres of the World which is becoming rare and valuable. Copies are available in the shop or on-line at the above website.

Paulette Pelosi was born in Cardiff but a short time later moved to her parents' home town of Swansea. She was educated at convent and grammar schools, but illness terminated 'A' levels and plans for a journalistic career. Chronic illness was often a disruptive force in her childhood and adolescence and continues to be so in adult life. In 1976 Paulette collapsed at the end of her training as a State Registered Nurse - a diagnosis of Systemic Lupus Erythematosus put a name (at last) to the previous episodes of ill-health. Within two years of diagnosis she became heavily involved in promoting knowledge about Lupus within a national charity, and went on to become Public Relations Officer for the South Wales Lupus Group (since retired). Paulette says that writing is one of many personal survival tactics. She continues to live in Swansea where she maintains a healthy sense of humour. Her Welsh and Italian roots are both highly important to her identity.

Paulette's Italian roots and the direct involvement of her father in the scandal of Italian men, many of whom had grown and had families in Wales, and who were an integral part of the community, were interned as enemies of the state . Some had sons fighting in the Britsh army. Listen to this tragic story and the memorial that is being laid in Cardiff on July 2nd this year.

Details can be found on the site at

http://www.arandorastarwales.us/Arandora_Star_Memorial_Fund_in_Wales/HOME_PAGE_1.html

Interestingly, Terry Clarke, who features each week sang his composition Aranora Star when I heard him play at the Brunswick Arms last Thursday and we hope to feature that number as soon as we can set up a recording session. Meanwhile Terry has asked if we'd play his number Maria Callas as it continues the Italian theme with both Paulette and the singing of Seija.

Maria Callas is on Night Ride to Birmingham on the Terrapin label and features Wes McGhee. Recorded in September 2004 and available from Terry. I'll try and get a Paypal button on the site. Meanwhile, I hope you enjoy Terry's music as much as I do. I'm awaiting the release of his Dylan Thomas CD which he has been working on over the last few months with Swansea poet and Dylan Thomas specialist Peter Thabit Jones
Terry says:
My first musical memories come from listening to the radio when I was a child. My mother always had the radio on in the house. My favourites  were the popular opera singers of that time such as Maria Callas, Erinco Caruso and Mario Lanza. . .  to me Maria Callas is hardcore, a blues singer almost. Her singing "Casta Diva" from Bellini's "Norma" is one of those pieces of music I return to constantly, like I do Mikes Davis "Sketches of Spain"

Donna Phillips and Dan Morgan talk about young film-makers in Swansea and their ideas they are currently working on.

The full team are featured here and we look forward to seeing their first production starting in the Spring. This will be a series of shorts that they hope to place in local, national and international competitions.

Finally Ollie will be reciting another couple of poems.

Keep listening.

See you next week

Thursday 21st January Show

PLEASE WAIT THROUGH THE FIRST 90 SECONDS OF SILENCE AS THERE IS A FAULT BEFORE THE SHOW STARTS

This is the third In Town Today Show from Swansea South Wales in the UK and about people and places with news, views, interviews and your contributions, here at intowntoday.co.uk every Thursday.

We have some great interviews for you today. The Show seemed much easier to manage last week and I‘m hoping it’ll be even better today. I’ve recorded the interviews but hope to include much more live material soon. Please bear with me.

In store for you today I’ve brought together an artist whose work can be found all over Swansea, Our own Rock & Roll king with his own number, Manhattan Blues and a most intriguing story of this  song he wrote in the States when he arrived on the day the twin towers disaster happened in 2001. There’s Ollie the Street poet who has been unwell for a week or more and we wish him a really fast recovery. I just love his material and the 2 very short poems today will get you both smiling and thinking. And there’s Jamie Denyer who by day is a plasterer based in Neath but who has made a dream come true. A dream for some local families who have a real need. His is a really inspiring story.

I was hoping to have Rob Warlow back today but I met him yesterday and we had so much to talk about that time wasn’t sufficient to record anything. But watch out for a really exciting new project I’m planning that he’ll feature in regularly. It’s the new and exciting half hour show for small business call Biz Talk Radio. I’ll let you have full details just as soon as I have them myself. He’ll be back here too, soon.

I know that we all think about our lads and lasses in the armed forces and about the terrible job they are faced with every day at the front-line, so to speak. It’s hard and we particularly support those who have been injured and their families together with those families who have lost loved ones.

So on a lighter note I’ve found a bunch of intrepid retired ex army soldiers who will be putting in a brief appearance from time to time. They include General Havock, Private Parts and today I’ll be talking to “grumpy old man” Major Disaster. There will be others that I’ll be dragging up from the depths of my imagination.

And we’ll conclude with Prab Chadha the Gadget Angel with a quick thought about a new gadget.  I did laugh when we spoke yesterday and I asked him what he wanted to speak about and he said “I put my thinking turban on!”

Zaal Restaurant are featured on the blog and have a Facebook group “Save Zaal Indian Restaurant” so please join. Just click here

This is a fine restaurant serving great food so please support them. We don’t want them to have to close.You can call in and sign the petition too.

 Jamie Denyer is a quiet man who came to the interview, bought me a coffee and  was a pleaseure to interview. In fact I didn't need to ask much. Just one question and he was so enthusiastic he just told his story.

Jamie has created ETSETH, made up of the initial letters of Enlarge the Spirit, Encourage the Heartand the stories about those whom he has helped just accentaute how successful this has been. He started giving just one day a week free to help someone in need. And having spent some time with Jamie I found him quite humble in his success. He just can't stop telling you about the difference it has made to those who he has worked for - as if he still doesn't accept that his simple gesture has had such an effect. It is obvious that this work will grow through the help of others who are giving their services free too, by local companies who are supporting Jamie with donations of free building materials and through donations from the public.

You can get involved by either working with Jamie for just one day a month, you could give goods or other services or you could make a donation, no matter how much. And I guarantee you'll feel good inside. So do it now. Simply go to Jamie's website by clicking here

There isn't a place to make a donation now but I'm sure if you check the site out in a few days there will be.

Jeff Phillips is a great artist with paintings galore. He uses a whole range of medium including iols, acrylic and water colour, but he also uses unusual materials too.

He has worked with many schools and run adult art courses too. So his involvement in the cultural side of Swansea is immense.


Watch out for more of off and put his exhibition in your diary, althoughh we will be telling you nearer the time. It's at the Grand Theatre during August. And having seen some of the exhibits alrweady I can tell you that this will be a real treat.


To see Jeff's work on-line visit his website where there is much to see and where you'll be able to purchase works too. Just click here

Just a couple of paintings to show Jeff's wide range of work and painting ability.

On 23rd November 2001 Jeff received a life long fellowship for his millennium award winning project “The Wheel”, to Spain where he delivered a series of talks to the students at the Torrevieja institute and at local schools in the Alicante Province. Using “The Wheel”, and his other paintings he have developed exciting and thought provoking environmental art workshops, working in schools with children of all ages, youth groups and adults with learning difficulties. He has worked on projects with such bodies as The Environment Centre Swansea, The Princes Trust, B.T.C.V, Mumbles Development Trust and The Mo Green Project.

He is also featured in Art Slant, the New York contemporary art website where you can see a further selection of work. Click here.

Jeff is also a partner in the Dylan Thomas Experience. He is preparing an extensive series of both water colours and oils that will be exhibited at the Grand Theatre, Swansea through August 2010 and will be making these available in limited editions.

Jeff is available for commissions of all types and in just the last few weeks as has worked on several portraits, a large stunning oil painting of the Dylan Thomas group at the BBC Studios , back-drops for a Santa Grotto and music events and designing postcards.

    Terry Clarke, back again by both personal and general demand. Great as ever.  He performs locally in pubs much for his own enjoyment as anything and that shines through in his intimate performances where he includes his own work that is often inspired by local events and certainly always by personal experiences. 

Green Voodoo was released in 2002 and here is a review:


"A weird and wonderful mix of smokey jazz, country, rock 'n' roll and ballads...with the feel of hot, sweaty US nights."
Nick Dalton Daily Express, August 2002



Terry has kindly agreed to talk more about his music and for use to use it in the Show. I'm getting a lot out of this, he is so informative.

Prab Chadha of Gadget Angel is always a welcomed guest and with his own slot on Radio Cardiff 98.7fm on Fridays at10 for an hour you can join him there by clicking here and then on listen live. Prab has been really helpful with the show and offers endless encouragement.

If you have any problems using gadgets at home or work give Prab a call and reduce your stress levels.

I look forward to hearing from you

kind regards

Your host Mike Leahy.

A varied show with some great interviews.

A big "Thank You" to my guests and to you my listeners and readers. Please tell your friends about this show. We try to make it interesrting and varied and welcome your input. Call or text me today on 07976 364681 with your news, views and concerns. Be part of the local community.

Show Number Two so many wrinkles now ironed out. We were really pleased to welcome Terry Clarke and Rob Warlow talking about really contrasting subjects and I could have continued with both as we only scratched the surface.

Rob Warlow of Small Business Success talked about his return from Africa and his new venture getting small businesses up and running despite the continuing recession.

Click here for his website, join his free newsletter and see what other goodies he has on offer. I've been reading his work for at least a couple of years and it's always refreshingly to the point.

He also has a group on LinkedIn where you can join in the various discussions so if you are belong to LinkedIn click here. If you are on LinkedIn then join today, it's a great place to make connections on a professional level.

The concerns about the parking in the Uplands is not just one for the local traders but for shoppers and residents too. It's a problem throughout Swansea and probably across the nation.

I can understand that residents want somewhere to park and the area is dense with families. The added problem is the high numbert of students living locally, many of whom (but not all) bring a car and who don't want to be involved in residents parking, they just want to pull up and get out of their car. I don't know the answer but I hope the interview with Neil Collier created some interest.

If you want to put another side or just make a comment let me know. This or another media platform like the Evening Post or the Wave or Swansea Bay Radio Stations will, I'm sure be happy to put your view across. Let's get it out in the open and not become a whispering campaign.

Zaal's Indian Restaurant in Sketty serves the finest food and has built up a keen reputation already in just two years as the place for good food. There are several other eating holes in the same block but they all have different menus.

Zaal have been refused a licence to sell food for consumtion off the premises and as most of this has been delivered away from the restaurant it means that in general there aren't people inside waiting or cars outside parked. I really can't see the problem.

If you have eaten at Zaal's then please support them now in this last minute pitch. Call in and sign the petition. Join the Facebook Group that will be posted up here later today. Let's try and save this great restaurant and the young entrepreneur owners. We need more young inspiring business people and should be encouraging them.

The Swansea Business Show is approaching and the Federation of Small Businesses are the main sponsor. If you are a member stands are subsidised for you and start at £99. If you aren't a member but run a small business then I'd really recommend joining.

Terry Clarke. Rock & Roll, Reading, fifties, Sinatra, Dylan Thomas. And such memories and experiences.

Terry spoke about his shortly to be released abstract album which imagines Dylan Thomas on those boozy American tours picking up the echoes of Brill Building pop, street-corner doowop and louche Miles Davis jazz lines is due out in the autumn. Walk Like A King, the latest disc from Llanelli-based singer songwriter

Terry Clarke, also homes in on the poets penchant for pinball and Mickey Spillane novels, and it spies on him shucking oysters in San Francisco harbour while reminiscing about Oystermouth and home. Some of the tracks were aired on The ITV Wales Show as part of their report on The Hay Festival, along with readings from Swansea poet Peter Thabit Jones, who helped initiate the record.

The 11th album in a career which has dipped into Texas swing, traditional rock and roll, ska
and narrative balladry, the singer has always been happy to pay homage to his heroes in
words and music, with Laura Nyro, Johnny Cash, Gene Vincent, Johnny Burnette and Maria
Callas all moving Terry to verse in the past.

And he says his interest in looking beyond the image and the hyperbole of stardom, as well as
his desire to wrest Dylan the man back from the airless halls of academia for a while, is what
will give the album its fizz. "I first paid tribute to Dylan Thomas in the sleeve notes to my album The Shelly River back in 1991, and he has always been an influence," he said.

"But, in my mind, he sits alongside Elvis and Johnnie Ray as much as he does alongside
Yeats and Ted Hughes. "And getting to Dylan the man was the most important part of this project — the man who loved pulp fiction and who would get his driver to pull up at the kerb if he saw the lights of a
pinball machine through a bar window when he was on his way to a posh reading in front of
these eminent academics in New York because he became addicted to the game."

We'll be talking to Terry again in a regular slot so if you have any questions make a comment on this page.
