I think I need a new #Welsh Tutor, mine has given me the ghost for a couple weeks and tempest fugit.

Any recommendations or indeed folks here who have a Wednesday evening slot?

Only a week into the new #Welsh Government and they’ve lost control of the #weather, disgraceful scenes in #Penarth today.
#Welsh references of #FinalFantasy9, one of my favourite ever games. They include a link to King Leir of the Britons, some Welsh character names, the Excalibur sword, and even the small town of Corwen in north #Wales. #FF9 #Cymru

At last, our #Celtic nations are standing up for themselves! Or their voters are. Even now, Arthur is fumbling around on Avalon, wondering where he left Excalibur. Remember King Arthur, the famed #British leader, who spoke #Welsh?

The #Welsh #Senedd #results: Plaid Cymru, 43; #ReformUK, 34; #Labour, 9; #Conservatives, 7; #Greens, 2; #LibDems, 1. The #election was by means of a new system, that of a closed Party list system in 16 multi-member constituencies, each returning 6 #members of the Senedd, 96 in total. 49 are required for a majority. The result is an absolute disaster for Labour, & - once again - sees #Reform profiting at the expense of the #Tories.
