Merthyr Yobs

Thursday night a bit of the horses field behind my house was set alight.

Earlier on it was again.

And now a big part of the mountain in Troed-Y-Rhiw (the village over from me) is alight. (Dafydd maybe has more news on that as its his village)

People are really sad, they have nothing better to do

Forgot to add last night too

i live it trecynon and could see the smoke coming over the mountain

The fire on 'Rhiw mountain still going strong

There are fires up by me on Penrhys mountain, loads had to be evacuated.

Some people are so stupid

Passed Tonypandy on thursday & the mountain was ablaze & tonight Llantrisant common was on fire. There's not some weirdo out there with a box of matches.

yes it was effin huge that fire young fish i noticed it as i staggerd home pissed,feckin idiots its not long before someones house gets burnt down and dies cos they light the fires awfully close to the houses!

for fux sake i thought this was a football board.

Lets hope that those who cause the fires get trapped in it, harsh but sometimes its the only way they;ll learn.

Yeah, I saw these fires as I was picking my girlfriend up from her mother's in Merthyr as I drove along the A470. It looked quite spectacular in an ironic sense but it's so stupid that people persist in this. It was obvious it was done on purpose by the way the fire was in rings. Very dangerous and I hope they catch whoever did it because sadly it's becoming the 'cool' thing to do with the remedials.

so all conversations must be kept to footy?...........dont be daft !

Practically the entire Rhondda valley has burnt these past few days.
The bit of scenery we have these muppets think it's good to burn it and ruin the views for everyone else.
It would be a shame if they got hurt in one of thier own fires.

You always know if its a dry day in Merthyr Tydfil as there is a fire.
