Can anyone help me with this, please?
If I take the transport by Menter Caerdydd buying bus tuckets online, will it be enough printing them out or I still have to tet them from somewhere. If they send them there’s no use for me to buy anything online.
The same question goes for Eisteddfod tickets
Well, I could e-mail or call though, but asking here is kind of more handy for me. If no one answers then I’ll go for this “last” option.
Diolch.
Diolch yn fawr iawin, iawn, Sara. What an interesting and highly travelled and highly qualified chap! He has made several of his publications accessible as pdf files and i have downloaded
A Harmony or Concord of Several and Diverse Voices«: Autonomy in 17th-Century German Music Theory and Practice
in full acceptance that it will be a tad too specialised for me. 
Diolch eto. Huw
Is there any special SSIW advice for getting the most out of the Eisteddfod as a learner? I’m trying to decide which days to go, there seem to be so many interesting things, I’m trying to maximise my enjoyment based on going on 2 separate days (driving as I live locally). I like harp playing, choirs, contempory music and opputunities to improve my Welsh of course.
Welsh weather is unpredictable, you could have a swelteringly hot humid day, that turns into heavy rain. So bring both light clothing and sun goo, and a coat, warm jumper and wellies; I know from many British ‘summer’ festivals. Temps from 10-25 degrees
You can use the Menter Caerdydd service, but it’s only one bus a day. you may find greater flexibility with regular services? http://www.trawscymru.info/
Nope, not really. Just talk to as many different people as you can, and don’t use any English…

This is my 3rd Eisteddfod. I like to go to the Cymanfa Ganu on the first Sun night, stay locally, then spend the Mon there for the Crowning of the Bard, and home on Tues.
I’m going to take an umbrella/sunshade and decorate it with SSiW and any of you, please accost me if you see me !
I’m wearing a Here to Help jacket Saturday, Sunday, Monday and Friday mornings and will be in Maes D Thursday afternoon and the second Saturday morning. And @tatjana and I will be in Maes D on the Wednesday afternoon, 3pm.
Looking forward to meeting lots of you throughout the week.
We’ve just had confirmation that my wife is off work Wednesday so we will (hopefully) be there all day on the 3rd. I’ll be wearing my long beard so you can recognise me, please say hello.
It might be an idea for someone who is there earlier in the week to find a good spot (with seating away from the music stage so we can chat without needing to shout) and then post on here directions where to go before Wednesday comes around. Also a specific time. I would rather it be closer to 4pm than 6pm but a little inside info wouldn’t go amiss. 
Two years ago we all met up then disappeared for food and fetched it back to the table, it kind of worked.
Yes, this usually works (no matter what festival and where … ).
Well, as newbie I’m a bit like going with the flow at the moment.
I was hoping for that.
HELO!
(on a sirious note) Of course I’ll say helo (if I wouldn’t be too startled upon everything being little girl in “the big city” for the first time ever).
Dw i’n edrych ymlaen d’ailweld ti dydd Mercher, 3 fed Awst @gruntius.
I haven’t yet chosen which beard I’ll be wearing, but It’s likely to be the shorter full set with a slight sprinkling of grey. 
I will be there hefyd at 4pm on the Wednesday - I’ll be the one with no beard; unless something uncontrollable happens between now and then. Nic
I think Maes D is open till 5pm so would it be best to meet there before it closes? This is a question not a suggestion.
I’m going to suggest 3pm on the Wednesday, as I said earlier. @tatjana’s bus goes back to Cardiff at 6 pm so if it’s later she will miss out on time with her SSIW friends.
Hmm… I can see a trend starting. Should I get a false beard? A bit like the women in Life of Brian…
I can leave my beard on. - haha 
I shall expect a lot of pictures posted on the Forum of you all, with and without beards, on various parts of the Maes!!
I promise to leave my beard at home.
OK, that’s it. I insist everyone at the SSiW meetup has a beard of some sort 
Any face painting on the Maes, Dee? Then we can all come with beards.
