At 4:27pm on August 25, 2009, Byn (Bynbrynman)Tavarn Ty Elise said…: I forgot to mention the huge spectacular in Plogonnec for the 20th anniversary of the twinning from next wednesday. (I shouldn't have written 'more fluent').

At 3:37pm on August 25, 2009, Byn (Bynbrynman)Tavarn Ty Elise said…: Hi Menna, I'm looking through the names of the members and I know quite a few personally, you are more fluent in Welsh than I am, I've got a book of your poetry in the house lent to me by Bernez Tangi the Breton poet, a close friend of mine,(I've also known Marc Phillips since he was eleven) the title slips my mind but it's in a bi-lingual form. Do you remember the Cymdeithas ? coach tour around Aberteifi, I think it was your boyfriend who always wore a cap (neither Irish nor Dai); It was either during the Eisteddfod or the Ysgol Bask or Haf in Ffostrasol when Cleif (Prendelyn) Harpwood was serving there; our guide was Cynog Dafis. If it was the Eisteddfod Aberteifi, I was staying in Sian Tesni's parent's house at the local bakery in Pen-y-cae, Llanarth with her and Gwawr, who sadly left us not long after whilst at university, you would have been or still are, very friendly with Gwawr's sister

At 10:25am on August 15, 2009, Victoria (Vicki) York said…: I thought your name sounded familiar. I used to be a member of the choir but family commitments had to become a priority so I'm not currently singing with the choir. I also would like to know if your books ever get translated to English.
Hope you had fun in San Francisco.

Dwi hefyd yn newydd i'r safle hwn. Fydd yn cymerid amser i mi ddod yn gyfarwydd ag e. Wrth gwrs, dwi wedi clywed amdanoch o'r blaen, ond doeddwn i ddim yn gwybod am eich cysylltiad gyda'r Unol Dalaethau. Diddorol bod eich tad yn dod o Beniel. Nawr dwi'n meddwl amdano, o Bont ar Sais roedd fy nhad yn dod, dim Rhydargaeau--mynd i'r capel yn Rhydargaeau roedd y teulu. Cafodd fy nhad i eni yn yr hen felin ym Mhont ar Sais, ac i godi yn y ty ffarm yr ochr arall i'r Stag & Pheasant.

At 10:52pm on July 2, 2009, Mark Powell said…: Hello Menna,
Glad you joined Americymru! I just bought your book Perfect Blemish: New and Selected Poems 1995-2007, ISBN-13: 978-1852247799, after reading some of your poetry on your web site. I would have bought the hard-cover, but Amazon didn't have it.

I hope you enjoy the site.

Welcome!
--Mark Powell

Gaabriel and I created this site less than a year ago as a Social and friendship site for the Welsh, Welsh ex-pats, persons of Welsh descent and Cymruphiles around the world. It has grown considerably since its foundation and we would like to extend a warm welcome to you....our latest member. Feel free to invite any friends that you think would be interested in joining. The network has many features which allow people with a shared love of Wales to communicate and share photos, videos, links, blogposts etc and we will be adding new features from time to time. Make yourself right at home. Once again...

Croeso!
