I had a call from a recruitment agency today who were asking about some work I did at a local authority. The recruiter asked which one and I said "Ceredigion". She said what, and I had to repeat it three times. In the end she asked me to spell it and as I started she said "Oh, Cardiff".
When I finally got it across, she said "I always struggle with the Welsh councils because there's so many, and it's almost like another language".
Almost.
There’s an increasing and very welcome degree of analysis of Welsh politics and the looming #Senedd26 election out there.
We’re trying to fill the niche niche of combative analysis here, it’s very un-Welsh because there are no punches pulled. Have a listen and feed back! 👇 #wales #cymru

“We are at a turning point in how we exist online,” says @jaz, Director at Tŵt Cymru. “The legacy platforms are failing to provide safe, joyful spaces for community connection. By focusing on the “pethau bychain”, we are proving that digital sovereignty isn’t just about technology; it’s about hospitality, kindness, and taking control of our own digital heritage. This is our cyfraniad to Cymru – our contribution to the nation.”

I'm running a fundraiser for an awesome Welsh speaker and ex Welsh teacher who desperately needs a new wheelchair that is suited for her body.
We are already so nearly a quarter of the way there in just 2 days, which is incredible! Thank you everyone!
Every penny helps so please donate and share: https://gofund.me/fa7ef1edf .
