Eisteddfod what a load of shit ?

Promoting Wales in the USA

Isn't being Welsh seen as equal to being from any other country already?On Wikipedia The English name "Wales" originates from the Germanic word Walh or Waelisc, which referred to foreigners who had been "Romanised". Waelisc also provides the source of English word Welsh. As the terms Walh or Waelisc were not used by Germanic speakers to describe their eastern neighbours, it would have had a meaning that was more than just "foreigner".

...... Must have been a pirated copy I had.The other week I sat down in the north , placed Twin Town in the DVD player and watched Twin Town . It worked .Have you checked whether they placed Twin Town in DVD player and not VHS player (or worst case scenario BETA max)Or is the problem getting the DVD player across the border control into the north?Try sneaking it over the border control next year, around the 3rd week of August, the border control will be weak then. They'll all probably be at Twm Sion Cati's birthday bash.

The day it becomes Bi-lingual is the day Owain Glyndwr gives up the Ghost, and comes out of the cave, riding down the mountain gathering up his men of arms along the way ................................ I am not against Bi-lingualism but Colonisation. Why should Eisteddfod be in English? It is Cymraeg as is Cawl .................. NO TRANSLATION.

Some links to info on Mari Lwyd, Calan Gaeaf and Gwaseila Mari Lwyd Mari Lwyd is unique to this part of Wales. In its purest form (still to be seen at Llangynwyd, near Maesteg, every New Year's Day) the tradition involves the arrival of the horse and its party at the door of the house or pub, where they sing several introductory verses. Then comes a battle of wits (known as pwnco) in which the people inside the door and the Mari party outside exchange challenges and insults in rhyme. At the end of the battle, which can be as long as the creativity of the two parties holds out, the Mari party enters with another song. Calan Gaeaf Gwaseila
