I'm curious - did you have your Welsh Rootschat Meet?  If you did, please tell us all about it.

Llantrisant is easy to get to from Barry, too !
Either the 5 mile lane, or A4232/M4/A4119 - Your choice :)

I'm afraid I'll have to miss this one - I'm off at the weekend for 2 weeks to central Asia - visiting the "-stans". Work has to take priority  :'(
Hope you all have a good time, and have a couple of beers for me.

Reminder, it's this Sunday !!!

so far:  Amy K 
            Berlin-Bob  (with a name-tag, see posting above)
            Ladkyis  (at Gwent FHS)
            Welsh Jen (Colbert One Name Study Polo Shirt on! Also with a name tag)
           
Where and when do we meet ???

Suggestions so far:
Quote from: Ladkyis
I will be there because I am in charge of the Gwent FHS stall. so there's a rallying point. On the other hand I am hoping that the refreshments will be as last year because their bacon butties are just to die for and that would also be a good rallying point

Quote from: Berlin-Bob
so ... we meet up at the Gwent FHS stall and drag you off for a bacon buttie and a cuppa

PS to  Everbody and Anybody, If you are anywhere near, why not come along !

- You don't have to speak welsh,
- you don't have to be welsh,
- you don't even need to be searching for welsh ancestors !!

Just come for the fun of it, and to meet other RootsChatters !

Hi everyone,

I'm hoping to make it as I live near Newport...but I have to say I have a terrible driving record in this area.  I was working in Cwmbran and driving home the first night I ended up in Usk!  :-[ So I'm hoping it is really easy to find or you never know where I'll end up, Birmingham perhaps  ???
