Hi Ruth. Could you tell me which day this group meets at the Mulberry Bush please and what time. I live fairly near to Lampeter. Feeling apprehensive about next week but looking forward to it. Jayne.
They meet upstairs at the Mulberry Bush every Tuesday from 11.00-12.00.Fortunately Iām too occupied (doing a live-in care stint at the moment) to fret too much! Iām sure itāll all be fine as long as we keep our sense of humour about us!

mmmmyeah, what could possibly go wrong lol!
Getting really excitedā¦ just wondering what special things we should bring.
I have a Scrabble yn Gymraegā¦ intending to bring that. I also have some authentic mĆŖl Gymraeg. (Please remember, air travellers, that airport security has problem with fluids.)

Hi @ruthcooke and @Jaynehp,
Iām planning to get along to the group in the Mulberry Bush tomorrow, bringing @Bobi with me. We can have a little pre-bootcamp getting-to-know-you session

Iām sure Dee will set your minds at rest regarding bwtcamp, but really, there is nothing to worry about. The main thing that will happen is that everyone will start talking something that sounds like Welsh and has a lot of Welsh rules, but with a grammar that is, well, some say suspicious, some say innovative.
There will be a lot of laughter.
There will be some singing, lots of sleep, and some really nice food.
And then you will all go home about three years further forward in your Welsh speaking journey than you were at the beginning of the week.
Itās a holiday, and you will enjoy yourselves. (Anyone found not enjoying themselves may be publicly flogged until they do enjoy. Itās in the terms and conditions).
Just the holiday happens to be in Welsh.
