MYDDFAI WI

The meeting on 4th March was held at the home

of Secretary Nesta Davies, before going on to

the Red Lion, Llangadog, for a cawl supper.The

meeting began with the distribution to members

of the programme for 2009. A letter had been

received from Keith Brown, of Cilgwyn Lodge,

requesting that we would again do the teas at his

Open Garden Day on Sunday 19th July. This

year will be the 10th anniversary of opening the

garden for the National Garden Scheme. An

extra attraction is planned, a stall selling

Myddfai crafts and other items made locally.

Four members had taken part in an evening

of dominoes at the White Hart, Llandeilo, and

had enjoyed a jolly time, as usual.

The Brianne Spring Group Meeting will be

held on Friday, 20th March, in Llangadog. The

guest speaker will be David Walters, Chief

Executive of the Royal Welsh Show.

A discussion followed on the entries for the

‘Show within a Show’ on Saturday 27th June at

the National Botanic Gardens. Some members

offered to enter items for some of the categories.

Next on the agenda was deciding on the

venue and date for the annual May outing. The

final choice was the Cathedral city of Wells in

Somerset, and the possible date 14th May. We

very much hope to welcome anyone who would

like to join us that day, so that we can fill the

places on the coach.

Two members hope to go on the Carmarthen

town ramble on Wednesday 22nd April, and

several plan to attend the spring council meeting

on Monday 27th April at St Peter’s Civic Hall.

Carmarthenshire, when the speaker will be Peter

Shaw talking on his experience of being

kidnapped in Georgia in 2002. The next meeting

will be on 2nd April, when the speaker will be

Richard Keen.
