Would anyone be interested in getting together for practising Welsh during the day on a Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday in Whitchurch, north Cardiff? I have access to a public venue in the centre of the village. I don’t have many free evenings and Saturdays so I never manage to make it to the other SSiW gatherings. Hope to hear from someone
I’ll get that one in next week’s email - thanks for the heads up Aran
Could do Tuesday or Thursday. johnloaring@gmail.com
Hi, I am usually free on Wednesdays. On Tuesdays I could do later in the afternoon (after amser stori )

Hi I am Des and I live in Llanishen …not far from you
I am interested in a meet-up , perhaps not every time but certainly quite often.
Any of the days are OK possibly except Thursday as I go to a Welsh Siarad Group in Rhiwbina in the morning

I live pretty locally and would like to come along. I work, but might be able to get some time free at the start of the day (although evening’s would be even easier )
Keep us posted on plans and I’ll do my best to fit in.
Looks like there are quite a few of us interested It would be really nice to have more opportunity to practice locally. I am always up for a coffee/cake/beer even if I can’t make a set time every week. Evenings also a possibility
Hi, I live in Rhiwbina and would be interested on either Tuesday morning or any time on Thursdays or Fridays.
I’m delighted that there are so many people interested in a Whitchurch meetup. I hope to meet you all soon. The venue is Aro Ling Buddhist Centre. This is behind Chambers Estate Agents, and accessed from the car park. These are the times that the centre could be available for us to get together: Tuesdays 1pm; Wednesdays 1pm or 3pm; Thursdays 1pm. I can be a little bit flexible on the times, but have to fit around the other daytime events at the centre. Please could we arrive at a decision on the most popular day and time out of the above? Sorry to those of you who mentioned evenings, but I specifically do not want to meet in the evening. There is the Mochyn Du meeting already for the evening.
PS I could possibly do 9:30 on either a Tuesday or Thursday as well, as the first centre session is not till 10:30.
Thursdays at 1, or 9.30 if that turns out to be best, but would prefer 1 pm. Could do Wed on, but not every week. Gobeithio, dyn ni’n gallu cwrdd â ein gilydd yn fuan. Hwyl, Chris
Wed anytime for me. Cheers, Jenny
Any further thoughts about this?
As an aside, I heard there was a meetup in the Maltsters this Friday at 6 and wondered if anyone had been before/was planning to go and whether it was friendly to those of us with less Welsh
Diolch
Sorry to have gone quiet for too long. I propose two meetups a week at Aro Ling Buddhist Centre. First on a Tuesday at 13:15 and second on a Wednesday at 16:15. I will be there anyway and will be delighted to welcome any dysgwyr who are able to call in. I suggest we aim for 30 minutes to an hour and see how we cope! No need to ring the bell, just come up. Dw i’n edrych ymlaen ar eich gwrdd chi. Do get in touch if you need directions.
Sorry but I will not be able to start these meetups till the second week in March. My mother died this morning and so I am closing the centre for 10 days. So let’s say that they can start on Tuesday 10th March. Mum was 98 and had not been well for a while. Looking forward to meeting you.
Very sorry indeed to hear this sad news, and wishing you strength in this difficult time.
So very sorry to hear your sad news. What a wonderful age she was! Am looking forward to meeting you and everyone else at the first meeting on Tues 10 March. Can’t make Wed meeting at present.
Tues 10 . Thank you for arranging the meeting today. I enjoyed it.
Thank you for your condolences. Looking forward to meeting you on 10th.
I am interested in both Tuesday 1-15 and Wednesday 4-15, although I cannot make the first
Wednesday mentioned in the email. I am from Rhiwbina btw
