Welsh Space Agency Calendar

12/21/11 08:29:39PM, by Dilwyn Griffiths

We may well have forgotten about our man out there in the icy depths of space. But we haven't forgotten to produce an all new 2012 Welsh Space Agency Calendar. And unlike some other lesser space agencies we could name ourone's completely for free. Just click http://www.welshspaceagency.org/ <- there and download yourself one. Some self assembly may be required. Ask mummy or daddy (mom and pop in the US) to weld it together for you. That's right we don't ask for any money. But if...

12/29/16 04:47:45PM, by Rapscaliwn Pritchard

I'm just trying to gauge whether there is a market for Welsh language t-shirts, hoodies or mugs in the USA and whether anyone can advise of a particular theme or subject that may promote some interest.  Many thanks, Diolch

Welsh Poetry Competition 2010

01/10/10 04:25:00PM, by DaveLewis

The new international competition is now open folks - http://www.welshpoetry.co.uk and we are keen to get many more US writers onboard as we know many people there write great poetry. Based in Pontypridd we are in our 4th year now and need help promoting the competition further afield as we do not get any grants or bursaries from the Arts Council or Academi and we rely purely on entry fees to keep going. Please pass on to anyone who might be interested.Diolch yn...

Examples of Welsh Influence on America

08/06/08 10:55:46PM, by Ian Price

I'll start you all off.In 1826 a Welsh woman living in Wales called Felicia Dorothea Hemans came across an article - two years out of date - in a newspaper from Massachusetts. It had been used to wrap up some goods she'd purchased. The article concerned a founders' day celebration in Plymouth in which the Pilgrim Fathers and The Mayflower were mentioned. Inspired she took pen in hand and wrote a poem called ' The Landing of the Pilgrim Fathers ( in New England ).This poem has given millions...

The Welsh Highland Railway

02/09/11 12:55:42PM, by Gaynor Madoc Leonard

Anyone visiting Wales this year might like to add the Welsh Highland Railway to their itinerary. It's a 25 mile journey from Caernarfon via Beddgelert (readers of The Carmarthen Underground might glimpse the tea plantations there!). Eventually, it will terminate at Porthmadog but even without that it promises to be a spectacular journey. Information can be found on the Festrail website.

A Welsh Hard-Rock Mine

04/01/11 11:49:36PM, by Stephen Peter Lloyd Harvey

Silver-Lead Mining was once a major industry in Cardiganshire (Ceredigion) and Montgomeryshire. In 1860 there were over 100 mines in operation. The 1880's were unkind! Competition from Australia and Colorado wrecked the market. Many of our Welsh Miners emigrated to the Red Mountain Mining area of Colorado (San Juan Mountains) near Silverton. We have rescued a whole mine from obscurity and reconstructed it! Now I need to retire (it's taken 36 years to achieve) and we have looked at open...

Welsh referendum March the 3d

03/02/11 02:01:05AM, by TARW DU

This Thursday March the 3d 2011 is a Welsh referendum day on more efficient lawmaking powers for the National Assembly of Wales. This is the only chance in a generation to say yes to a Wales that can pass laws in the already devolved areas without having to go begging for permission like vagabonds to the Government in London . It is basic common sense that will save Wales time and money whilst giving us greater efficiency and self respect. A yes vote would give Wales...
