Ronald Anthony "Ron" Berry (23 February 1920 – 16 July 1997) was a Welsh author of novels and short stories. Born in the Rhondda Valleys where he remained for most his life, his books reflect the working class of the industrial valleys though his vision is more optimistic and there is less concern for politics and religion which was expressed by many of his contemporaries.
Although largely overlooked during his lifetime, Berry has been embraced by contemporary Welsh authors including Rachel Trezise and Niall Griffiths, and also by contemporary researchers.
Berry was born in 1920 in Blaencwm, a small village at the head of the Rhondda Fawr. The son of a coal miner, Berry left school at the age of 14, and he too took employment at a local colliery. He remained a coal miner until the outbreak of World War II where he served in the British Army and later in the Merchant Navy.
Berry undertook several roles in his younger days, including amateur boxing and also played association football for Swansea Town, reportedly scoring a vital goal in a cup match. Though a knee injury in 1943 ended his sporting career. He later became a carpenter, working around Wales and in London. He married Rene Jones in 1948, with whom he had five children, two sons and three daughters. He took up various jobs, and wrote some early essays and poetry for which he was unable to find a publisher. In the 1950s, Berry studied at Coleg Harlech, a further education college in Gwynedd. There he became an avid reader and honed his left-wing political views. A failed attempt to enter teacher training college saw he and Rene return to the Rhondda, taking up residence in Treherbert. It was in Treherbert, where he took on a job as the assistant manager of the local swimming baths, that he first began writing his first published novels.

A MECHANIC has managed to transform a 1970’s VW camper into the one of the world’s wackiest race cars by putting it on its side. Jeff Bloch, 44, aka Speedycop has made a name for himself for his outlandish race car builds which, include an upside down Chevrolet Camaro and a plane that was converted into a street legal vehicle. The veteran cop of 21 years took just five weeks to create the car which he has dubbed the, Trippy Tippy Hippy Van. Videographer / director: Speedycop Producer: Bunmi Adigun, Nick Johnson Editor: Jay Sohrabi With special thanks to the Gang Of Outlaws, Matthew Williams and Damion Jedlicka.

Die Zeit, sie trennt nicht nur für immer Tanz und Tänzer.
Die Zeit, sie trennt auch jeden Sänger und sein Lied,
denn die Zeit ist das, was bald geschieht.
Die Zeit, sie trennt nicht nur für immer Traum und Träumer.
Die Zeit, sdie trennt auch jeden Dichter und sein Wort,
denn die Zeit läuft vor sich selber fort.
Zeit macht nur vor dem Teufel halt,
denn er wird niemals alt,
die Hölle wird nicht kalt.
Zeit macht nur vor dem Teufel halt,
heute ist schon beinah' morgen.
Die Zeit, sie trennt nicht unr für immer Sohn und Vater.
Die Zeit, sie trennt auch eines Tages dich und mich,
denn die Zeit, die zieht den längsten Strich.
Zeit macht nur vor dem Teufel halt,
denn er wird niemals alt,
die Hölle wird nicht kalt.
Zeit macht nur vor dem Teufel halt,
heute ist schon beinah' morgen.
