Sounds like some long train journeys - I think I'll need to takes some good books to read. Got any recommendations for accommodation while I am there ? Also, got any recommendations on how to approach the event in terms of what to do, where to go ? Jiggers |

He's part of Carreg Llafar and attended last year. He will probably know if the Welsh contingent goes en masse; may be a possibility of travelling with whoever is booked for 2006. Similarly, Geoff Cripps at Rhondda Cynon Taf (based in The Coliseum, Aberdare, I think) who went out with his group, Allan yn y Fan. Siân |
