What do people think of devolution after 25 years?
Monday 6 May marks 25 years since the first election to Cardiff Bay and the start of Welsh devolution.
It followed a referendum two years earlier where a narrow majority of voters backed setting up the then National Assembly, now renamed as the Senedd, with some powers transferred from Westminster to Wales.
What impression has devolution had on people in Amman Valley, Carmarthenshire, about 50 miles from the heart of Welsh politics?
"We're situated at the edge of two counties and it feels like we get the last of the share," according to Steve Holloway, 47, captain of Brynamman rugby club's darts team.
When asked if he felt connected to Cardiff Bay, Steve said "yes".
"But then I also feel suppressed by Cardiff Bay because of what they have to do, because they've got a lack of money," he added.
Zara Eady, 35, a member of the darts team, was more upbeat.
"I do think Wales is a better place than when I was a child," she said.
"I've got a son myself and the education is a lot better than what it was when I was in school."
She said she it was right that Wales could "do our own thing in our country".
"We are capable of doing it here."
Fellow player Andrew Roberts, 60, had "mixed feelings".
"I think there's duplication of work which Westminster is doing and it's a cost that we probably don't need," he said.
But his wife, Carol, 73, said politicians in Cardiff Bay "know what we're all about - they understand Welsh people".
Labour have hit the winning score in every election since 1999, allowing the party to govern since devolution began and make decisions over education, health, agriculture and transport.
The Welsh government has defended its record over the past 25 years, claiming devolution has put Wales "at the forefront of progressive policies, with a government elected by the people of Wales, working for the people of Wales".
However, back in Amman Valley, it is not long until I hear some criticism of one of those policies: cutting the default speed limit in built up areas to 20mph.
20mph changes 'poorly thought out'
It prompted a record-breaking Senedd petition which attracted almost 470,000 signatures.
"I think that was very poorly thought out," said Richard Geraghty, 74.
He moved to the Amman Valley from south-east England six years ago, so how does life in Wales compare?
"There's a lot of things that are better up here than they were down there," he said.
"I think the health service is better up here, you get better looked after."
Teenagers Samuel, 18, and Liam, 16, said they had been given little opportunity to learn about devolution or Welsh politics.
"I don't know much about it to be honest, not much at all," said Samuel.
"We didn't learn anything about that in school. The most we learn is about the general election."
"We might get an assembly once with someone to come in and talk about it, but it's not brought into lessons and talked that much about," agreed Liam.
He said he had not realised that 16 year-olds could now vote in Senedd elections, but he went on to say that it was a good idea.
"You can get more of a variety of people to vote then - you can get younger voices and older voices, and you can know what the majority of the people want," he added.
At the club's bar Phil Edwards, 57, tells me he has never voted.
"I've just never bothered," he said.
But what does he think of the state of things in Wales at the moment?
"It's not in the best state, is it? There's been no improvement."
