No probably about it, unless you’re flying. And even then there is more here than you could possibly do justice to in a day.
Can anybody give me an idea about when the crowning ceremony will end tomorrow? I can see from the programme that it starts at 16.30 but not when it finishes. Diolch
You can park at my house for free! I live in the street opposite the turning to the MD - approximately a three-minute walk. It’s permit-holders only, but we have a visitors’ permit. PM if you’d like to do that
Sorry I am not good with technology and can’t make the badge. Is it possible for me to have one as well please.

True, but I really wanted to say,that I saw you on Dal ati and I think you were as good as any of the others. It doesn’t help that they put the program together after choosing the 5 to go through and so gave them longer on screen than the rest of you! I suspect that they didn’t think you were doing as much for your community as the winners, but based on what was shown, they only really asked you about SSiW and you certainly demonstrated that it works! You also showed that you speak totally naturally with a lot of humour!!
Probably too late to answer this now, and I’m not an authority, but as far as I remember from previous years, it lasts about an hour. However:
- It depends if it is won. If there is no actual crowning it is over faster!
- After the Crowning, the Procession slowly leaves all in a long, slow progress which must take quite a long time! The TV follows the Archdruid and Crowned Bard and I usually go off to have my tea, so I can’t be sure at what stage the audience can escape!
p.s. @tatjana Looking out for your hat on TV!!!
Diolch yn fawr iawn. Hwyl, Carol
Diolch yn fawr iawn! PM sent.
Super. Favour in return - would you be able to do me a badge? I can’t work out how to open the various shared files to edit them (which might be a Mac thing), and I don’t have a colour printer.
Of course! No probs.
Diolch @henddraig for your kind words. I thought that the community bit, and plans for the future where the weak bit, and possibly I didn’t look the part. There was a certain sameness about those who did get through I felt.
ORDERS for EISTEDDFOD BADGES
There seem to be two of us providing badges (mine available only on Wednesday after 11-ish), but the more the merrier, I say.
Just to avoid duplication, I have made badges for @Y_Ddraig_Las, @gruntius, @pippapritchard, @carolevans, @margaretnock and little old me
From now on, can you specify whether you want @netmouse or me (@hewrop) to do your badge. (I’ll try not to be hurt ).
@netmouse - if you’re going to be on the Maes before Wednesday, you’d be the obvious choice - can you perhaps post here to say when you’ll be there?
PS - my deadline is still tomorrow (Tuesday) late afternoon.
PPS - Newyddion gwych am targed iaith newydd 'nd y fe? Targed Iaith Newydd Bydd rhaid i’r Fab 4 i weithio’n ddwywaith mor galed.
@hewrop seems to have everything under control on the badge front! (Sorry, no intention whatsoever to muscle in on the act! )
I’ll also only be there Wednesday and Friday. I’ll do one for @sarapeacock as I’ll be seeing her first thing Wednesday, but I’ll leave the rest to you…
Oops! I think that’s my fault - sorry. i just though I’d ask Netmouse as I’d be seeing her first thing… Sorry to have confused matters.
Thanks @netmouse - would have welcomed your “muscle” as long as your badges aren’t prettier than mine.
Dw i’n edrych ymlaen at gwrdd â ti (eto?) Dydd Mercher
Happy to provide any ‘muscle’ if required - just let me know! (Within the power of a 'mouse…)
Hum ho, how about a rival design, now…
Na, dyn ni ddim wedi cwrdd eto. Edrych ymlaen at gwrdd a phawb - mae’n gyffrous iawn!!
If it was left to me we’d all be wearing a white sticker with a name scrawled on in marker pen.
wait till you see what I’ve created for you!
I have visions of a pretty pink bow to tie the badge to his lovely beard!!
To @margaretnock They are all much of an age! I’d say you therefore deserved it more, but I’m prejudiced!
