Okay - I think I’ve now said hello to everyone whose pic is up in this thread - apart from @PhilgJones@MarilynHames@Richard636363@aliC@gkfbux@glynsig@Macky (ohmigod that’s lots) - and only fleeting conversations with too many of you, but that’s the nature of the beast…
Phil Mari Richard Ali Gareth Glynis Macky please come and say hello at some point tonight! And if you’re feeling particularly kind for a fairly baffled old bear, say ‘Hello my name is’ (and then your actual name, yes, I know SSiWers can be mischievous)…
And everyone else who I haven’t had a chance to say hello to yet - whether you’ve got a picture in here or not - do please come and do the same thing - I would dearly love to have met every single one of you, but I do start to get tired and bit shy about hurling myself at people and saying ‘WHO ARE YOU THEN?? COME ON TELL ME!!’…
So please, please come and say hello and tell me who you are… and tell other people (who aren’t checking the forum!) to do the same thing… I’ll try and catch a lot of you when you’re sitting down at tables tonight… but hey, help me out here! COME AND SAY HELLO
Kev, I don’t think I’ve met you yet this weekend, and I really want to, because of how long I’ve seen your pic and great username on the forum and because I want to know what you were doing in that pic you just posted.
Hi Phil, I was “eistedd babi” for my daughter last week who lives in Foxholes Lane near Old Down, its interesting to know that there is an active clonk group in Thornbury. I have retired and live in New Quay but called on quite often to gwarchod plant. My Welsh doesn’t go much farther than Bora da but I would enjoy joining you at your meeting if we are on duty.
Hello John
Do you remember me from the OU Welsh course? Grace, from Bampton in Oxfordshire. You came to our house onceI think and we used to meet up with the rest of the OU Welsh group. I too am now doing Say Something and am loving it! Richard and I have moved to Ludlow, so now nearly in Wales, so hoping to practice my Welsh a loy
Hello Grace - what a nice surprise! Yes, of course, certainly I remember you! Great to hear you’ve now moved so close to Wales Do you have any plans to go to the Eisteddfod in Llanrwst? I’ll be there throughout the week Hwyl, John
It’s me that is in the debt of thanks - dwi’n meddwl dim ond i cyfle i siarad gyda Meinir a Nia [yr ddau a’r honno nyw] a Becca a pawb arall - seriously, a top, special, penwythnos arbennig - and now two parties under my belt,needing to cry with unfettered joy each time. Diolch am yr galon eich i gyd.
We didn’t get much of a chance to chat this time, but if you’re a fellow crier we’ll have to fix that next time… Very impressed with how well your Welsh is coming on, though…
If I can sell the idea of spending our wedding anniversary weekend on holiday… hopefully back-up for the Gorymdaith Annibyniaeth, I think my brother and family are going too…
