The Welsh Space Campaign
06/10/13 08:04:56PM, by Robert W. Allen
Posted today at Metafilter: The Welsh Space Campaign. The suit is made of the fabric woven in the last remaining wool mills in Wales. The astronaut boots are traditional Welsh clogs crafted by a traditional clog maker. The whole pressure system that will enable the astronaut to sustain life in outer space was built by a Welsh plumber . The aim of the designer is to reveal that Wales has the capacity to explore space, and to show that off-world culturalisation can be achieved...
The Big Welsh Challenge
06/07/13 03:35:51PM, by Harold Powell
I'm sure most AC members already know about this so I posted it for newbies. This is a good supplement for beginning Welsh learners. Includes North and South Walian dialects. It's interactive and works best with FLASH but there's a scaled down version for Apple users: Free from the BBC: http://www.bbc.co.uk/wales/learnwelsh/bigwelshchallenge/
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...
Top 50 Welsh Songs Ever?
08/13/12 04:13:26PM, by Gaynor Madoc Leonard
The Western Mail has published a list of top Welsh songs on www.walesonline.co.uk/topsong . The list includes Mae Rhywyn Wedi Dwyn Fy Nhrwyn by Y Tebot Piws (on everyone's list I think) and, of course, the great Hymns & Arias. I quote: "You couldn't get more Welsh than Max Boyce if you carpeted your house with turf from Stradey Park while watching endless looped screenings of Grand Slam, eating cawl and shouting 'Over by there, mun'. And you can't say fairer than that.
Welsh Dialects (North vs. South)
05/13/12 02:37:52AM, by Brett Hull
I have been learning Cymraeg (South) for a couple of years and have come across several differences is word usage and some structural differences between Northern and Southern Welsh.

Learning the Welsh Language
12/26/11 05:15:51PM, by Bronn journey
I have been around the Welsh community most of my life but have never learned to speak the language. Has anyone checked out Rosetta Stone for Welsh? I am pondering learning the language as a New Year resolution.
What does it mean to be Welsh?
03/04/13 12:07:56PM, by Gaynor Madoc Leonard
On Friday, 1st March, in the Western Mail, there was a feature by Abbie Wightwick (English/Irish) on what it means to be Welsh in 2013. I've tried looking up the article on WalesOnline but failed to find it.She mentions at the start of the feature that her children see themselves as Welsh, even though their father is Norwegian/Scottish/English and she is English/Irish.Ten people were asked about their Welshness. (1) Vimla Patel, Chair of the Hindu Council of Wales, said that she arrived in...
Welsh in the Klondike, 1890s
12/29/10 10:00:37AM, by Gaynor Madoc Leonard
I'm reading that fine organ The South Wales Echo on the train. Anyone whose antecedents were gold miners in the Klondike might like to log on to Walesonline.co.uk for the letters page (called Viewpoints). Gareth Roberts of Deiniolen, Caernarfon, is seeking information about Welsh people who went to the Klondike in the 1890s as he intends to retrace the journey made by these people and record it in various forms. His e-mail address is garmel@fsmail.net.
