You’re invited to join the Welsh Group, at the usual venue, for a traditional “Noson Lawen” (Fun Evening) on the 30th of September.  There will be competitions, dramatic pieces, charades, songs and poetry readings.  Most of the events will be through the medium of Welsh, rather like having our own Eisteddfod, but don’t let that put you off.

It’s a bottle and plate night so book your place as soon as you can.  Places are limited.  Ring Jane on 526 2530
