Guess what? I’ve started answering the questions instead of repeating them! Oh well, plough on, stuff sticks, it just sticks on the way out as well! 
Diolch yn fawr am hynny! 1.16 wedi gorffen! 1.17 to come!

You haven’t heard my stuttering, mistakes and south Walian imports!
Ditto!! I am bashing on but making no claims for the effectiveness of my exposure to the Challenges! 1.20 heddiw! Does that mean the Listening practices get even quicker?? Is that even possible???

I’m already speaking an unholy mixture of North, South, and anything else Welsh, depending on where I picked up a phrase or what pops into my head first! So far be it from me to complain about south Walian imports – nobody’s going to be checking your speech with a “gog-o-meter” to determine whether it’s “pure” enough! It’s all Welsh
And Aran doesn’t even speak exactly like a WJEC “Northern” course after all. (There’s “Northern” and there’s “Northern!” Not everyone says dŵad, for example.)
As for mistakes, I make my fair share as well! I’ve just refused to let myself be discouraged, thanks to Aran’s frequent encouraging remarks during the lessons that mistakes are good for you, if you can get out something before Catrin most (not necessarily all!) of the time you can move on, and so on.
It seem that you are similarly optimistic, which is great! Dal ati!

I admit to being shocked when I heard certain southernisms from Aran! I try to go by what Catrin says, as far as accent goes! However, I do realise accent is accent and sounding de or gog isn’t a crime! Mixed up idioms is a bit naughtier!! Lets face it, I have been taken for - French, Belgian, Yorks, American, Cardiffian (fortunately not by a Jack)…and just ‘has a rough edge to her tongue’! (the last of these, when at an all-girls Grammar, got me Bolingbroke (which I wanted) instead of aged York, which I did not!)
