  • The Worm's Head Hotel in Rhossili Was a Very Fitting Setting for Kathy
    The Worm’s Head Hotel in Rhossili was a very fitting setting for Kathy Ace to tell us how she got into writing and the journey she has been on developing the characters she uses in her various series. It was delightful on a lovely summer’s day, to sit eating scones and drinking tea looking at the Worm! Today’s venues might not be quite so picturesque, but will be equally as enthralling! Firstly there is Gowerton School at 1pm for the Children’s Concert and then we are back in Newton this evening to hear the wonderful pianist Llŷr Williams perform, but please allow plenty of time to get to the concerts as due to the Swansea Airshow this weekend, which includes a display on Saturday evening which won’t finish until after 10.30 pm; many of the roads around the bay will be closed from midday Friday to early Monday morning. This means that there will be no direct access along Mumbles Road. There will be diversions in place, but from my own experience last year, with everyone using the same diversion, traffic jams are inevitable. This means your journeys will take a lot longer so please leave plenty of time to get to any concerts over the weekend. (for further details please see the official Swansea City Council Wales Airshow website where there is free access to all the roads closed and traffic management details. Go to www.swansea.gov.uk . enter the keyword ‘airshow’ and you will see ‘wales airshow’ click on that and then scroll down to ‘Airshow FAQs including …….road closures’ click ‘road closures’ and the information should come up.) There are still tickets for the children’s concert available on the door, whilst the concert at Newton is another sell-out, but there may be one or two returns on the door.

  • Environmental Events, Swansea 2009
    Environmental Events Digwyddiadau Amgylcheddol Swansea 2009 Abertawe Introduction This 2009 Environmental Events leaflet lists details of over 300 events taking place in and around Swansea from March to December. These include guided walks and cycle rides through some of the most beautiful countryside in the UK, and many talks and workshops/training courses where you can learn about environmental issues and wildlife. There are also lots of children’s activities in local parks, on beaches or in other interesting places. Many of these events are FREE or at very low cost so everyone can get involved. Following the success of Earth from the Air in 2007, Swansea Environmental Forum is bringing another open-air exhibition of amazing and inspiring photographs to Swansea. The Hard Rain exhibition has toured much of the UK and many other countries across the world but this year we will see its first visit to Wales when it comes to Swansea in June. Look out for the programme of linked activities and events taking place throughout the summer. The number of events and organisations arranging them continues to increase so it isn’t possible to include everything in this leaflet. Please note that details of regular local produce markets have been collated on p.5. For further information on local organisations please refer to the contact list at the back of the leaflet and for additional events throughout the year visit the City and County of Swansea and Environment Centre websites (see details opposite).

  • Adroddiad Blynyddol 1967
    ADRODDIAD BLYNYDDOL / ANNUAL REPORT 1966-67 WILLIAM REES 1967001 Ffynhonnell / Source The late the Reverend Ebenezer Rees, Enfield, per Mr Trefor R James, Enfield. Blwyddyn / Year Adroddiad Blynyddol / Annual Report 1966-67 Disgrifiad / Description Journal of the testator's father, Rev William Rees (1839-1919), Independent minister at Llechryd, co. Cardigan, who, with part of his congregation, had been locked out of the Old Chapel on 26 February 1880 (NLW MS 12863F). Two obvious reasons for this dispute were the minister's uncompromising views on temperance and his adherence to the teachings of Emanuel Swedenborg. The journal commences on 2 March 1880 and the last entry was made some time after Christmas 1917. The contents of this volume may be broadly divided into three sections: the author's career and the history of the new Tabernacle at Llechryd, 1880-1903 and 1911-[?1918] (pp. 1-228 and 457-94), a section which began with his wife's death, and contains, in addition to material such as that found in the first section, a considerable volume of verse, 1904-10 (pp. 229-436); and a brief sketch of his life (pp. 437- 57).
