    Twmpaths

    We have just finished playing a spate of Twmpaths (Ceilidhs) celebrating the forthcoming March 1st St Davids Day. Just two pics while setting up last night. The other twmpaths had around 100 people at each but last night must have been nearer 200. It was a fab crazy night.


    I have been wearing my Grey Spirit Cilt lately

    Sounds like you've been busy with some nice gigs.

    It'd be right neighborly if you would include a phonetic pronunciation in parentheses for the benefit of the Welsh-impaired....I, for one, would love to be able to incorporate them in my vocabulary without embarrassing meself by mispronouncing them...

    I'm working out on my ukulele, Derek...when I get over there, I hope to be able to sit in for a few tunes!

    ps:In the interest of good international relations, I'll leave the accordion at home...Homeland Security won't let it them through the airport, anyway...

    Trefor ... Unfortunately we didnt make the St Davids Day Parade this year. It was a very sad day for us yesterday. A close friend of ours gave birth to a baby girl, who was born very poorly indeed and suffered a massive heart attack and passed away after 48hrs. Her funeral was yesterday Mar 1st. It was a very sad occasion indeed.
