I am waaay too close to the end of the event late last night (or, er, early this morning), and way too exhausted, to comment in detail yet, but:
Wel, am hwyl. How much fun was that??
Aran did the easily-predictable wonderful job with his two seminars (āWill Welsh Win or Lose the 21st Century?ā and āWelsh as a Global Languageā), led not one, not two, but FOUR SSIW meetup sessions, and generally was a huge asset to NAFOW. But even better (sori, Aran) was having SSIWers prospective, new, and not-so-new come and meet him and each other and form even more bonds of community. Iāll probably hijack someone elseās thread to talk about that (um, once Iāve had some sleep), but for here, and for now, I just want to say:
Aran, diolch o galon am ddod. Aran, thanks SO much for coming. Thanks for your warmth and for welcoming everybody in to being part of the future of this wonderful language.

If you attended NAFOW, you should by now have received an email with a link to a brief online survey (on Survey Monkey) about your experience.
Pleeeeease fill out that survey! 
Itās hugely important in planning future NAFOW programs, and itās crucial for us to hear from all types of attendees ā first-timers, long-timers, etc., etc.
If you didnāt get the link, please PM me with the name you registered under and your email address, and Iāll make sure you do get it.

Hereās a coincidence. Last week I was contacted by a previously unknown fifth cousin in the USA. We have a DNA match and we found that we have shared ancestors from Pembrokeshire. He was at NAFOW, where he had a great time, and he speaks what he describes as āconversational Welshā. He mentioned @aranās seminars and made the comment āHe is very entertaining.ā.
