Highlights of an unforgettable day - the view (when I dared open my eyes) from the road down the Great Orme in Niaâs speeding campervan); Tom Parryâs delightful war story; the little bird pecking a hole in the wall of the art gallery; the fascinating story of the perfidious Mostyns who helped themselves to, and still own, Llandudno, and last but not least the chocolate cake in the Rabbit Hole Cafe. It was lovely to meet old friends and make new ones; now Iâm planning an SSiW day out in Cricieth next year. I just need to find an equally eccentric and well-informed bunch of local guides to show us round. Thanks for everything, Nia!

Diolch Yn fawr i ti @BronwenLewis
Iâm sure youâll get to know all the character in Cricieth soon enough 
Glad you all had a good time and sorry I could not join you. I was about to join you all, but had to take care of urgent family responsibilities instead. Hopefully I can join you next time

Snowdonia is very, very, temping, but will have to see how the logistics work out, given school holidaysâŠ
Is the Machynlleth visit (from the first post) still likely to be happening as well, or does Blaenau Ffestiniog take its place?
Weâll be sticking to this programme for the next 3 Days Out
( had to change the date for Mavhynlleth because more will be going on in town on the 28th)
Blaenau Ffestiniog - 31 Awst | August
Machynlleth -28 Medi | September
Bethesda - 12 Hydref | October
Looking for an invite from the South in November !?
Either
Casnewydd or Caerdydd

Hey, youâve changed Machynlleth when I was just thinking what a perfect timing it was, since Iâm likely to be in Wales for a few days around the 15th. 
But oh well, never mind, I guess I can go there anyway and look for Michael Williams so I can listen to his fab accent instead! 
Sorry about this, there will be more happening around town on the 28 th, but heyâŠwe can have a day out in Machynlleth anytime. Keep me posted, what about coming on the 16th.Diwrnod Owain GlyndĆ”r, but I know there are celebrations in Corwen @BronwenJones will be going to up there 
on this date

To be honest, I donât know what it is, but I trust you on that!
(My problem could be that I know I have to be in Italy on the 18th so not sure itâs going to work with flights, etc. but weâll see!).

@nia.llywelyn I am interested in Blaenau Ffestiniog. Itâs a bit far ahead to be certain yet (family eventsâŠ).
I was in Machynlleth today 25th July. Interesting place but whatâs going on at the Canolfan Owain GlyndĆ”r? It was closedâŠ? Sign said open 11am to 3?pm (during school holidays) but it wasnât⊠Really strange, just no-one there.
Good time in MOMA though. Got talking to a volunteer. Exchanged a little Welsh but she originated from the Midlands and was married to a Welsh speaker for 40 years but not fluent. I mentioned SSiW and said, âhad she heard of itâ. A couple came up the stairs and said âyesâ theyâd been learning with it since 10 years ago! Could be some of the early students? What a coincidence!
