Meeting up in Betws y Coed during Eisteddfod '19

I suggest we meet in Cadwaladers which is at the station next to the pizzeria. Earlier on from taking the pic there were chairs and tables outside but, if there is no room, I am staying in a flat above it so could retire there. So, 10.00am tomorrow. The other event organised by Aran is on Tuesday morning on the Maes.

I have decided that the path to learning Welsh is not a straight one. Went to the Maes tonight to get a ‘feel’ for it and was close to asking on one of the food stands what Archie’s Cow was. I stopped myself just in time.

Staying at lety betws which is other side or river, on main road to Eisteddfod.Stephrn and i walked in last night. Really.little on and not worth £10 each. Think today better with Shmae open. Did see lovely Bronwen from New Zealand and we joined in a Twmpath which was fun.Please look out for me. Grey haired old lady with bald husband.

That narrows it down a bit :smile: If you feel like joining us at Cadwaladers at 10am today, come along. It’ll be good to know some faces before we’re all let loose on the Maes.

I don’t think Aran and I will be able to make it this morning I’m afraid. We spent an afternoon at the Eisteddfod yesterday and by the evening Aran’s back was in a terrible state and he was in quite a lot of pain. It was an early night dosed up with painkillers for him and he’s still resting. But we are here all week and hopefully we’ll see most of you on Tuesday! Enjoy your meet up!

All Betws y Coed stayers (sorry but I had to restrict numbers somehow) are invited to supper at my Airbnb tomorrow (Monday) for about 7.00pm(ish) though turn up any time really (before 7.00pm I mean). It will be a vegetarian version but not vegan (and ingredients have come from Londis so after trying to remember my favourite recipe I have changed nearly all of it - I will buy some bars of chocolate in case all goes horribly wrong. You won’t be alone as a few have foolishly agreed to come already. The flat is above the railway station with the entrance door between the pizzeria and the bookshop. I will need to know who is coming so that I can work out how much to cook.


And to @HuwJones and his wife, I have a spare room if you want to come and stay overnight but it means you might have to help out with the washing up.

Ti’n dyn neis iawn, Peter. Diolch yn fawr. Dyn ni i gyd yn dod - pedwar bobl (ond mae ‘na problem fach adre felly mae ‘na siawns bach bydd rhaid i fi fynd adre a symud car :grimacing: - ond bydda i’n trio gwneud y yn y bore nesa os dw i’n gallu)

Flip - sorry - that should have been in English. Language lock clearly works both ways!

That’s extremely kind, Peter, but I’m resigned to “commuting”. Maureen will be stayimg at home to look after the kittens. :smile:
I look forward to seeing you on the Maes

Ahem QUICK for-Aran-read-CATRIN!

Seriously, Pete. We’ve met. I know perfectly well you’ve seen no signs of organisation from me so far, and I give you my word that’s not just for show :joy:

@peterallen, I’d love to come but I’m volunteering on the Maes tomorrow (today now) evening. Sorry I had to leave Cadwaladers so early this morning. It was to go the Oedfa which I though was on the Maes but was, in fact, in Llanrwst.

I am sure we will meet up again, must come and look for you on the Maes as well.

Diolch am y cynnig Peter, we’re going to Nefyn and Llandwrog today so we’re not sure what time we’ll be back in Betws so to save us being late don’t count us for food but thank you! If we’re back at a reasonable time we’ll pop in and say hello :slight_smile:

Dw i wedi coginio lasagne so will be plenty if you come late. If you can’t make it then no worries. Hwyl.

Just to ask what happens at the meet up tomorrow Tuesday on the Maes and at what time?
Carl
