Welsh National Eisteddfod Bae Caerdydd/Cardiff Bay 3 - 11/08/2018

Wow, what else to say!!

Nicky · July 17, 2018, 9:05pm

I bought an official programme, which comes in the form of a 125-150 page booklet, but the details of your contest are minimal in there too
I’ll take a photo of it tomorrow!

Nicky · July 17, 2018, 9:06pm

Also, is your event a one-off final sort of thing? I only ask because if there is a final, I want to make sure that is noted in the guide - plus any prize giving etc.

Hi Nicky,
That really thoughtful to hold a meeting especially to include me. Diolch yn fawr iawn.

Nicky · July 17, 2018, 10:48pm

After your journey down are you sure your knackered legs will be up for an 11am meet?!?

No in all seriousness it’ll be great to see you and all congratulate you!

Macky · July 18, 2018, 7:20am

Great bit of work fair play. That’s going to make my week a lot easier. Diolch.

Nicky · July 18, 2018, 8:43am

I’ve just modified the spreadsheet a bit this morning, thanks to a great suggestion from Mark Hinton.

It should look a lot friendlier now! No new additions yet, but should be easier to read.

Karla · July 18, 2018, 4:34pm

It’s a preliminary - the finals happen on the Friday I think…I haven’t really looked past the initial thing, to be honest!

Nicky · July 18, 2018, 6:00pm

EDIT: Ignore this bit, confusion sorted - the correct details for the prelim and the final are now in the spreadsheet

chrome_angel · July 19, 2018, 8:05am

that’s great, i’ll hang on for the thursday one, i should have been travelling home then, but would be great to meet you all

Karla · July 19, 2018, 9:46am

No, it’s not a choir event…it’s the solo soprano (rhif 40). I’ll have a look at the program and find out when the finals are for you!

Nicky · July 19, 2018, 10:05am

Thank you!

The programme I’ve got hasn’t got a rhif 40 so I’ll await your advice

Karla · July 19, 2018, 11:16am

Hmm…maybe I could take a screenshot of the competitors’ timetable then and email it to you? That might be a little more informative…

Nicky · July 19, 2018, 11:41am

This sounds like a plan

I’ll DM you my email address now!

Nicky · July 19, 2018, 11:55am

This will probably be a good time for any other SSIWers to put their hands up if they are taking part in anything this year! Roll up! Roll up!

margaretnock · July 19, 2018, 1:58pm

I’m not taking part in anything, and will only be in the Eisteddfod for one day. Would love to be there on the Tuesday to hear @elizabeth_j_corbett, @elizabeth_jane, but find I have to talk to Yr Henoed, in Gorslas about my travels last year at EXACTLY the same time. And then I’d love to be there at the announcement of the Dysgwr y Flwyddyn, but I have to work sometimes! So in the end, I’ve decided to spend the Thursday in Cardiff and go and support @Karla. Anyone else around and I’ll be happy to meet up.

Nicky · July 19, 2018, 2:19pm

There’s a scheduled SSIW meetup outside the venue of Karla’s performance straight after!

malnet3 · July 20, 2018, 7:32pm

Hi Nicky I will be in Cardiff on Thursday and would love to meet up with other SSIW learners during the day.

I am taking part - but not in a competition!! I am singing in the Eisteddfod choir - one of about 300, so I wont be noticed! - and anyway, all the tickets are sold!

Nicky · July 22, 2018, 12:07pm

Give us the details! Even if its sold out, some people from here may have bought tickets without realizing you’re taking part!
