Just moving this thread here to be in the same section as the other “Events in …” threads 
Here’s a new thread to start the year! Some events here will be organised by Menter Sir Benfro, but anyone is welcome to post about events they know about. Welsh is on the increase in Sir Benfro!!
The first event is for advanced learners / new Welsh speakers wanting to increase their writing skills, so not suitable for newer learners.

My granddaughter took me to the opticians in Pembroke Dock yesterday morning and picked me up later outside the library. I had some time to kill so went into the library and was surprised to hear Welsh being spoken in a corner near the entrance. I couldn’t resist going over to see what was going on and found myself in the monthly meeting of the Menter Iaith group. I don’t know if there were any other SSiWers there but I was made welcome and enjoyed being able to join in if only for a short time. I will try to come back. Diolch pawb!
