Here’s another of my archive Mari Lwyds that I’m posting through December and early January up to her night, Hen Galan on January 13th. It’s the old New Year, which doesn’t make much sense until you find out it’s the Julian, or pre-Gregorian, calendar.

More From The Folk Club.
Husb sings in a local community choir, Aderyn Du Brynmill Blackbirds, and they gave a short performance of Medieval Christmas Carols at the Riverside Folk Club in Loughor earlier this week.

Man In A Stripey Shirt.
I was at a meeting this evening, The Friends Of The Glynn Vivian Art Gallery’s Annual General Meeting, and I spotted this chap in a stripey shirt. Of course I had to have a scribble, in Faber Castell Pitt drawing pens into a smooth, cloth-bound A5 sketchbook.
