I’m not sure if you understood what I was inelegantly saying on Friday about Mr Go Compare, Wynne Evans. He was in the celebrity program Cariad@iaith in 2012 that I have been watching. https://www.s4c.cymru/clic/programme/504715320

He also did a few podcasts for Pigion for BBC Sounds https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p07r2vrf which I enjoyed.

Just have to get his book from the Amdani Series next!

Diolch, @johnwilliams_6, for telling me about the lecture on TB in cattle on the AmGen site. I found it very interesting, though I can’t pretend to have understood every word. The pictures helped.
Today’s lunchtime story was by Bethan Gwanas.

I have a plumber coming to house . Unfortunately there is low cold water pressure and now only a trickle from taps upstairs. :frowning: Coming at 9.00 am on Wednesday. If this is sorted hopefully I can join you on zwm, I may be late. Any problem I will put message on forum. Bethan

I hope he can sort it out - not good!
Sue

Thanks! I expect it will be ok ! He will be wearing mask and gloves!

Helo pawb,
I am trying to track down two books from the Stori Sydyn series. “Inc” and “Y Stelicwr” by Manon Steffan Ros. I know that I lent them to somebody quite a while ago, but I can’t remember who it was.
Sue

It was me! I’m afraid I’ve been very slow with my Welsh reading. I’ve read “Y Stelciwr” but not “Inc” yet. I’ve also got your copy of “Y Gosb” by Geraint Evans.

I’ll bring them to Radley when we meet up for the walk.

Hi @chris-roberts
If you would like to hang on to “Inc” and “Y Gosg” until you get a chance to read them then that’s fine. I just wanted to find out what I had done with them. Or would you like to swap them for “Stryd y Bont”? It’s a nice easy read to get the confidence up and a fun story.

Thanks Sue - maybe I’ll give “Stryd Y Bont” a go.

I can see you have zwm problem now Sue so I m leaving too! I really enjoyed scwrs! Cadw’n ofalus Hwyl Bethan

Hi Bethan,
I was really enjoying that, but BT had other ideas. My broadband went out - red light on the router. It seems to be more or less OK now.
Hwyl, Sue

Is anyone else finding a message “Sorry! We’re currently doing some essential maintenance on SaySomethingin.com” when they try to get to the forum? Luckily I still have an e-mail with a link to here, so I can get in that way.
Sue

I’ve rejoined if you want to continue !
