Well, another lost weekend for my teams. Wales lost to France and Cardiff FC let still another one slip away at the end. At least they got a draw out of it. Cardiff looks headed to another playoff and not automatic promotion.

I was gutted by the Wales rugby loss. They say we have some of the best players in the game...when oh when are we going to put it all together?

Glad Scarlets were idle this week as they probably would have gone down the tube as well.

On an even sadder note, I watched the final episode for the season of "Jonathan" yesterday. Rats..love that S4C show.

Anyone looking for a good read would do well to get a copy of "Half Time." the autobiography of Welsh rugby ref Nigel Owens. It's a quick and enjoyable book.

Husband as usual is in unshakable mode.

Thats a nice song, did you write it?

Yeah I did actually, I wrote it for you because I love you so much. I also wrote Candle in the

Windregardless of what Elton John says. I sent it to him anonymously because I didnt want to be famous, you know, cause Im shy and stuff.

Youre very clever wife, what did I do to deserve someone like you?

Something really good probably, like winning a Peace prize or inventing Xbox.

Better late than never, Dewi and I drove to Chicago for a lively night of hwyl with friends in the Tafia and music by David Llewellyn, et al.

Dewi rests a bit when we hit the hotel--has to save his strength for the party!

Dewi is a hungry draig and this looks just about right. YUM! Note bottle of Moosehead.

Dewi purchased large quantities of raffle tickets--note shot glass of Penderyn. Later Dewi won an embarrassment of riches in the raffle.

Dewi has apple cobbler for dessert. Note empty beer glass.

No worries. Dewi never drinks and drives--we got a ride back to our hotel.

Until next year...Dewi says, "Diolch i Chicago Tafia!"

Sadly, there was a cloud right on the horizon, so I didn't get to see it rise. These were taken about 90 minutes later. I am going to see what the moon set looks like in the morning.

I wonder if this in in Wales--the sheep have spray paint on them. Very fun to see!

KID FRIENDLY!!

What Sheep Herders Do When They're Bored....This video will put a smile on your face.
Very cool! You wonder how someone thought of this. Sitting around over a pint someone says, hey, what can we do with the sheep? (And not get arrested.)

It is with immense pleasure that I can announce the demise of the English attempt to win the Grand Slam. No words can convey the admiration I have for our Celtic brothers in Hibernia.

Sparingbeing bombarded by anotherflagstone ofEnglish propoganda leadingup to the next Royal shindig, I can only say that The Celts can show the sons of Saxony a thing or two when it counts.

This is a photo of a slate pig sty I took at St. Fagan's in 2005.

THE new director general of National Museum Wales yesterday pledged to take the nations most popular visitor attraction into the future, while holding onto its past.

, who was appointed to the role last year, said the museum at St Fagans had an important emotional appeal to people in Wales, as he spoke to Cardiff Breakfast Club yesterday.

The site, founded by Iorwerth Peate in the 1940s, is Wales biggest tourist attraction, drawing in more than 600,000 visitors a year.

The concept of St Fagans has a very powerful emotional appeal, he said. Generation after generation have been brought to St Fagans by their parents and grandparents. Families are two-thirds of our visitors, and that is an extraordinarily high proportion.

Mr Anderson outlined his radical overhaul for the museum, which will see the National Museums archaeological collection brought to the site. The move will take St Fagans from a museum looking at Wales history from the Middle Ages to one looking back to the days of the first human habitation in Wales.

Twosigns welcoming visitors to a historic Cardiff suburb vanished after Welsh-language campaigners insisted: Theres only one f in Llandaff.

The 2,000 signs were unveiled on March 2 by the Llandaff Society featuring only the anglicised version of the word. That reads: Llandaff.

But 16 complaints to City Hall then insisted that if only one version of the name was used it should be the Welsh version Llandaf. So overnight the council confiscated the signs, just weeks after giving them the thumbs-up.
