The Stories of Rhys - Children's Welsh book series
09/12/12 05:28:53PM, by Christopher R. Williams
Hi everyone, Please take a look at my Welsh children's story series 'The Stories of Rhys' that I have just released on Amazon Kindle. A mystery adventure story set in North Wales that I hope will find an audience in America where children from a Welsh background who have never been to Wales will be inspired them. Full details in the Welsh Literature section and on my website. Christopher R. Williams www.thestoriesofrhys.com
Best and Worst of the Welsh National Anthem ?
07/08/13 01:31:48AM, by Lawrence Davies2
The Welsh National Anthem, Hen Wlad Fy Nhadau, "Land of My Fathers" was written by Evan James and his son, James James, who came from the town of Pontypridd, and was written at the start of 1856. So, in the last century and a half, plenty of people have sung it, played it, and even murdered it. Thinking about the best and worst versions I have ever heard, I can come up with a few renditions at either end of the spectrum. One of the best version would be Titch Gwilym, whose cover on electric...
What’s happening to all the Welsh societies in America??
10/14/11 02:12:58PM, by Doug Zimmerman
Whats happening to all the Welsh societies in America?? After attending a number of Celtic festivals, all within 100 mi of Washington D.C. A small group of us (with Welsh backgrounds) noticed an almost lack of Welsh supporters. So we decided it might be worth wile to form a local (to Frederick MD) Welsh Society. We started doing some research to identify what was out there, and what we found was that a lot of the web links for groups near us were dead and the groups were gone. So with the...

11/10/10 04:58:09AM, by Ceri Shaw
This is something of a crusade for us. We already do a lot of course. We regularly feature reviews of books and interviews with Welsh authors and promote them on this site and on Facebook, Twitter and elsewhere. We feature competitions with books by Welsh authors as prizes .And this year we raised money ( with your help ) to bring authors to Portland for the Wordstock literary festival. Next year we hope to bring over a number of Welsh writers for our West Coast Eisteddfod in L.A.BUT...

Siarad Cymraeg yn y Fyddin. Speaking Welsh in the UK Military
08/14/08 11:22:43AM, by Gareth Williams
Seen a lot of changes in attitudes over the last 20 years.Strange about turns on stuff.Long history of usage, and was OK'd when it suited the establishment, ie going clear in Welsh on the net with another speaker to save time on BATCO as recorded examples in WW2 right up to Bosnia and even today. But back in barracks, I remember you could get a bollocking for it when on duty.Operationally, I've used it to get info through if I knew there was a fluent speaker on the other end that could...
The conversation piece: a Welsh boy in London by Martyn Winters
02/13/16 01:27:30AM, by Martyn Winters
John sat on his square of cloth and newspaper outside the Whitechapel Art Gallery. You could find him there most days, with his big, square shoulders, knobbly nose and scruffy growth of ginger beard. I remember his coat more than anything. Brown herringbone with wide lapels; two of the four buttons missing and the other two held on with electrical wire forced through the eyes and fastened with a tail of knots that disappeared into the folds of his coat. What you could see of his eyes beneath...
