Sorry to have been a bit rubbish over the summer (read: a parent of small children) but, unusually, I am able/planning to make the pub this Wednesday. Paging @s-coates1 in particular - are folks likely to be around this week, or away on their hols?
Hi Richard - weāre taking a break until September now with people being on holiday and such. Iāll post again when weāve decided when the next one is
Hi @RichardBuck - Iām around this week but canāt make Wednesday unfortunately.
Double dog-sitting at the moment (!) through to the end of next week, but other than this Wed or next should be able to make a weekday afternoon/evening meetup or weekend late morning/afternoon/evening if that might be on the cards for anyone
Next weekās bank holiday probably means Mondayās not a good choice for a meetup, so Iām suggesting either 2.15pm on Tuesday 28th or Thursday 30th, or both - we could perhaps have one in the Bap Cafe and the other in the Royal Blenheim. Let me know if you think you could make one of these slots.
Hwyl, John
Looks now as if I can only make Thurs 30th. Is anyone up for a 2.15pm (or later) Royal Blenheim meetup then?
(Bank holiday Monday or this weekend are other possibilities but Iām guessing most people will be off doing other things )
A quick reminder that we have a meetup tomorrow, Thurs 30th, at 2:15pm (note change from usual time) in the Royal Blenheim, St Ebbeās/Pembroke St. Let me know if youāre planning on coming along.
Hwyl, John
With the start of the autumn/ Michaelmas (Gwlhengel) term, itās back to the usual schedule next week:
-
Monday, 3 Sep, from 11am in Welsh Mikeās Bap Cafe, Abingdon Rd (over Folly Bridge, just past the White House pub)
-
Thursday, 6 Sep, in The Royal Blenheim, St Ebbeās/Pembroke St from 12 noon.
I wonāt be able to make Thursday , but with luck Iāll be there on Monday .
If you can make either day, do please post a message so that others will know to expect you!
Hwyl, John
Just to say Clive has emailed that heās planning to come on both Monday and Thursday
I am hoping to be there on Monday. Itās the last Monday when I donāt have to hurry away. I canāt be there on Thursday or either day next week what with gas man, dentist etc.
Just got back from Abertawe. I didnāt manage to speak Cymraeg, but I did have laverbread for breakfast.

A quick reminder about tomorrowās (Mon 3 Sep) 11am meetup in the Bap Cafe - hope to see you there
Hwyl, John
Just to confirm that (unless anyone wants to suggest changes ) our meetups for the rest of the month will follow the same pattern:
- Mondays from 11am in the Bap Cafe
:
- Thursdays from 12 noon in The Royal Blenheim, St Ebbeās/Pembroke St
I wonāt be able to get to any meetups until the last week in September, so each time do please let people know beforehand via this thread whether or not youāre planning to be there. (Hopefully thatāll avoid people turning up and finding nobody else there , or deciding not to go because they believe no-one else will be there )
Bydda i yno yfory, dw iān edrych ymlaen at gwrdd Ć¢ Clive a phwy bynnag arall bydd 'na.
Iāll be there tomorrow, looking forward to meeting Clive and whoever elseāll be there

Shwmae @rachaelseculer-faber!
I wonāt be there tomorrow Iām afraid, but Iām very much looking forward to meeting you and getting back to some clecs with the others too. Just let me get over this back-to-school mountain and Iāll be back!
Anyone planning to meet up next week?
PS If for any reason you find you canāt post a message to this thread, you can instead contact me at this email address percolin2000-cymraeg@yahoo.co.uk and Iāll post a message for you
Looking at what my timetable is likely to be for the year, I suspect that occasionally popping along to the Thursday at the Blenheim after finishing teaching for the week will work quite well ā Iāll continue to be unable to make Mondays, but at least I wonāt be trying to speak to you all in Greek!
I waited for half an hour but no-one showed. Sadly the Royal Blenheim are having gas/electricity + vegan chef problems again, so dim ribs llysieuol i fi chwaith!
Hi Rachael,
Iām sorry to hear that. As I said above, I canāt make it next week either, but I hope that someone else will. Iām not sure that I believe in these ribs llysieuol.
Sue
Iām hoping to make it next week, but Iāll confirm nearer the time to be sure.
Hi Rachael - very sorry about that - I havenāt heard any more from Clive, so I donāt know if he was late or never turned upā¦
ā¦ a bechod am y ribs - tro nesa gobeithio!
Hwyl, John
Turns out that last Monday Clive did mention he couldnāt make it on Thursday but I failed to pick up on it - maeān wirioneddol drwg gen i @rachaelseculer-faber
On Monday, though, Clive says he will be there at the Bap Cafe (likely heāll be a bit late) - is anyone else planning to go along?
