In just one week’s time it will all be over. Election night will be done, and as the dawn breaks just a light chorus will remain of activists and politicians wandering home as they come to terms with where the public has left them.
But such serenity is still one long week away. A week which, much like this one, will be dominated by the final acts of an election drama which remains too close to call.
As such it is no surprise that Labour Leader Ed Miliband was in Wales once again on Tuesday to set out his plans on immigration. Speaking in Cardiff the prospective Prime Minister pledged an extra 1,000 border staff, full exit checks and measures to stop serious criminals entering Britain.
Without wishing to be outdone, the competitors were also out in force as George Osborne defended the UK’s slowing economy in Powys on Wednesday; the Liberal Democrats launched their "city deal" on Tuesday; and Plaid Cymru promised to end "postcode lotteries" over NHS funding for new drugs and treatments.
But perhaps what is most interesting about the election trail in Wales is that it all takes place while the nation’s own legislature (the National Assembly) remains hard at work - supposedly unaffected - within the curved walls of the Senedd in Cardiff Bay.
As such this week saw further progress made on the innovative Planning Bill, along with a debate on the Government’s Legislative Programme for its final year and further committee scrutiny of the Regulation and Inspection of Social Care Bill.
Such developments serve to remind us that when all the electioneering is said and done, the other four and a half years are spent by people (regardless of their political persuasions) crafting and scrutinising legislation which aims to make positive changes to our society.
In the mean time there is still an election to fight, and it would be remiss of the last Week in Wales before the big day not to give a final prediction on how the nation’s 40 seats will fall.
And in short the night is likely to hold few surprises, with only two seats projected to change hands as Labour gains Cardiff Central from the Liberal Democrats and Cardiff North from the Conservatives. Given that this election has become a scramble for each and every seat, one can’t help but feel that Labour will be somewhat disappointed by such a small rebound from their low point of 2010. As such it perhaps says more about the current state of the Party in Wales that it looks unlikely to make substantial gains in places such as Arfon and the Vale of Glamorgan.
Conversely the Conservatives will doubtlessly think they have weathered the natural erosion of support which comes from being in Government fairly well, as they still hold an outside chance of picking up Brecon & Radnor from the floundering Liberal Democrats.
The unknown factor remains Plaid Cymru, which is still clutching to the SNP’s coattails as it attempts to prove that there is a left-wing nationalist alternative in UK politics to the established norm. The good thing for us all of course is that we’ll find out the answer very soon.
