I didn't know you were going, Sian, we were doing our bit in Llanfair Caereinion all week, running a tearoom and selling our crafts.
The town was busy with the preliminaries during the day, but at night there were Welsh rock bands playing at the Institute, and the town was packed. The Black Lion ran out of beer, and the people at the chipshop will certainly have a foreign holiday this year.

The town square was knee deep in beercans and chip papers, and three hanging baskets disappeared......the sum total of the vandalism.

The "green clad maidens" were told at the last minute that their headdresses had to be real flowers, not the ones that they had spent hours making, so there are few flower gardens in Llanfair that havent been robbed!!

I had to see the proceedings via S4C, and, although I understood little of the commentary, the performances were excellent.

Cheers, Bron.
