The Grapevine team wishes to pass on their sincere apologies to

Grapevine is now available around the world: issuu.com/lampetergrapevine/stacks … but we are also really interested to know how far and wide the paper versions have travelled; what local villages and communities it has reached and what route it has taken - Or perhaps how many people have passed it on to someone else?

Are you planning any travels over the coming months? If so please don’t forget to pack your copy of Grapevine - we’re always fascinated to find out where in the world it goes with you.

Can your copy of Grapevine be the most environmentally friendly traveller? Or will yours be shared in a variety of unusual ways, be found in an quirky local location, be upcycled or recycled? Where will your copy of Grapevine end up? Why don’t you send us your photos to: lampetergrapevine@gmail.com and we’ll publish them in future issues. Eds.

Gardeners Woe The garden is great The slugs are too!

This former royal residence in East Cowes, was built between 1845 and 1851 for Queen Victoria and Prince Albert as a summer home and rural retreat.

Thanks to Annie for taking Grapevine to visit too.

GRAPEVINE no. 51, July / August 2017 Post: c/o Victoria Hall, Bryn Road, Lampeter, Ceredigion SA48 7EE Email: lampetergrapevine@gmail.com Published by: Transition Llambed Development Trust, Victoria Hall, Bryn Road, Lampeter, SA48 7EE Printed by: TSD Reprographics, Lampeter, on paper from sustainable resources Printing costs sponsored by:

Croeso / Welcome to another issue of the Grapevine …

In the light of all the recent tragedies it is difficult to find the right tone for an issue where we have ‘Celebrations’ as our theme. I am sure that all readers would join the Grapevine team in expressing our heartfelt condolences to all who have been affected. Words are difficult to find in situations like these and it is even harder to imagine what the people directly and indirectly involved are going through. Yet, maybe there is something to celebrate in these dark times, when we consider the responses of people close by … the heroism of individuals who stood up to, and fought attackers on behalf of total strangers; the courage of all the emergency services - fire crews, police, ambulance and medical staff tackling horrific scenes and dealing with these traumatic incidents time and time again; all the people who have instinctively gathered together to offer help, in whatever form they can, from offering a place to stay, or giving donations of clothing, food, water or transport, to those organising distribution of items, co-ordinating displays of solidarity or offering support and solace …

There has been an outpouring of grief & anger, but at the same time, a real sense of community – a coming together of every section of society, regardless of all the usual barriers; a demonstration of mutual

respect, restoring confidence in humanity. This also highlights the value of building strong, sustainable, resilient communities that can survive whatever happens; something that is often reflected in local development plans. So, although it feels a bit awkward, it’s important to build on this positive element and finish by honouring everyone who has been involved, over the past five years, with making the Grapevine the success it now is; definitely an achievement worth celebrating.

Cothi Gardeners’ Club Our next meeting will be on 19 July, starting at 7.30pm when our speaker will be Jenny Matthews.

Jenny and Kevin Matthews run Moorland Cottage Plants, a nursery and garden near Crymych in Pembrokeshire. Their site is on the northern slopes of the Preseli mountains and often exposed to wind and very low temperatures in the winter. So, Jenny is certainly qualified to present to us an evening of ‘Plants for Problem Places’.

Whether you have a large or small garden, there are sure to be one or two spots where you’re not sure just which plant will thrive. Come along on 19 July for some tips and advice.

Jenny will bring some plants for sale, grown at her own nursery. She does not use a polytunnel so all her plants are hardy and ready to go straight into your garden.

More information can be found at www.moorlandcottageplants.co.uk At this time of year, many of our members have spare plants which they bring along to sell, proceeds going towards club funds.

Our August meeting will be a ‘Members’ Medley’ social evening, then our first meeting of the Autumn will be on 20 Sept.

Join us at 7.30pm, visitors pay £3 (includes tea / coffee), annual membership is £14.

Click cothigardeners.com to learn more about the club, connect with us on Facebook or phone Julian & Fiona on 01558 685119.

We meet on the 3rd Wednesday of each month at Coronation Hall, Pumsaint, SA19 8UW. Donna Worrall

Totally Locally Llambed Totally Locally is all about Me, You, Him & Her. It’s about shopping in Your street, Your town, Your district.

It’s about jobs & community; and it’s about investing today for a prosperous tomorrow.

It’s about making our towns better places to live, work & visit.

It’s about supporting local growers, producers and services - be it furniture makers, accountants, farmers, butchers florists or bakers.

Totally Locally is an ongoing campaign to open your eyes to the great independent shops and businesses which grace Lampeter’s streets, and is here to encourage you to turn into the door of that shop you walk past every day. Go on, give it a try - there’s a good chance you’ll want to go back.

Most of all though Totally Locally is about people. Great people. People who care about what they do, what they grow, what they make, and ultimately the people they sell it to.

It’s about all of us, and our collective responsibility to support these businesses … because when we do

our towns thrive.

If you support a local shop or business, chances are they support at least ten others.

It’s the very structure of what we have come to love about this wonderful town of ours. * * * * * Totally Locally is a national social enterprise, and was set up to encourage people to make people rethink the place they live. It’s won a few nice big awards, received national recognition, is in over 60 UK towns and has spread as far as New Zealand & Australia.

The 'blueprint' has also been made totally free to any town that wants it. It’s nice to be nice!

Head Office is run by a small group of marketeers and designers people who want to see our towns thrive, and keep the individuality they have, rather than join the ranks of the many ‘clone towns’ around the country. They make no money from Totally Locally, and neither do the small group of Lampeter voluntary co-ordinators.

Totally Locally is quirky and fun, but backed with a serious message - use your local shops and businesses and the place you live will be nicer - it’s that simple!

To get on-board, support the Totally Locally Llambed message, and see how you can locally make a difference join in at www.facebook.com/TotallyLocallyLlambed Lampeter Chamber of Trade

Diwrnod 1: Ar ddydd Sul, am wyth o gloch yn y bore, roeddwn i, Llion, Gruffydd, Gabriella, Harrison, Steffan, Miss Mared a Mrs Heini ar ein ffordd i faes awyr Stansted. Roedd cofrestru bach yn anodd ond ar ôl cael bach o help fe gyrhaeddon ni’r awyren 5 munud cyn iddo adael.

Roedden ni’n lwcus iawn i wneud hi mewn pryd!

Diwrnod 2: Dydd Llun oedd ein diwrnod cyntaf yn yr ysgol yn Latvia. Fe gwrddon ni â’n gwesteiwyr ac wedyn roedd rhaid i ni fynd i ganu. Fe glywon ni pob gwlad yn canu ond fy hoff wlad i oedd Latfia. Roedden nhw’n dda iawn. Ar ôl ysgol, aethon ni i ysgol arall i wylio côr gwahanol. Cerddon ni o’r ysgol i’r cychod er mwyn hwylio ar yr afon Lielupe. Fe welon ni hwyaid a hyd yn oed carw! Ar ôl y cychod, aethon ni nol i dŷ ein gwesteiwyr.

Diwrnod 3: Ar ôl ysgol aethon ni i siop losin. Roedd y siop losin hon yn arbennig oherwydd roedd yn gwerthu losin sydd ddim ar gael mewn unrhyw wlad arall. Wedyn, cerddon ni o’r siop losin i dŵr lle welon ni llawer o dai, ysgolion a’r gwesty lle roedden ni’n aros. Diwrnod tri oedd un o’m hoff ddiwrnodau.

Diwrnod 4: Ar ddydd Mercher, aethon ni i Camp Ledini lle'r oedd pwll nofio allanol. Aethon ni i gael bwyd ac yna i’r pwll nofio. Y plant o Gymru oedd y cyntaf i fynd mewn a’r olaf i ddod mas!

Wedyn aethon ni i ddawnsio dawns draddodiadol. Roedd y dawnsio yn gyfle da i wneud ffrindiau newydd.

Diwrnod 5: Ar ddydd Iau, aethon ni i barc natur Tērvete.

Cerddon ni o gwmpas a gweld anifeiliaid wedi eu stwffio a ffeithiau amdanyn nhw. Yna cerddon ni draw i weld pryfed wedi eu gwneud allan o bren, ac roedd rhaid i ni ddweud os taw ffrindiau neu elynion oeddent. Wedyn, aethon ni i’r ardal gwifrau gwib. Diwrnod 5 oedd un oedd un o’m hoff ddiwrnodau hefyd.

Diwrnod 6: Ar ddydd Gwener aethon ni i’r traeth. Aethon ni i roi’n traed yn y Môr Baltig. Ar ôl y traeth aethon ni i gael crempogau. Roedd un crempog yn sawrus a’r un arall yn felys.

Yna aethon ni nol i dŷ ein gwesteiwyr am ychydig. Am 5 o’r gloch, roedd rhaid i ni fynd draw i’r ysgol i baratoi am y parêd i ddathlu pen blwydd Jelgava. Yn y parêd siaradais i â Christina, athrawes o wlad Groeg, am fytholeg Groegaidd, rhywbeth sydd o ddiddordeb mawr i mi.

Diwrnod 7: Ar ddydd Sadwrn, fe ddihunon ni am wyth o’r gloch er mwyn mynd i faes awyr Riga. Cyrhaeddon ni adre am wyth o’r gloch y nos – roeddwn i jyst mewn pryd i ddathlu pen-blwydd fy mrawd.

Rydyn ni’n lwcus iawn i gael teithiau fel hyn ac rydw i’n ddiolchgar dro ben i Ysgol y Dderi am roi cyfleoedd fel hyn i ni.

Day 1: On Sunday, at eight o'clock in the morning, me, Llion, Gruffydd, Gabriella, Harrison, Steffan, Miss Mared and Mrs Heini were saying goodbye to our families and were on our way to Stansted airport. I was very excited because it was my first time flying on an aeroplane. Check in was a bit stressful, but with a bit of help we found ourselves sitting on the aeroplane five minutes before it took off. We were very lucky to reach the aeroplane in time!

Day 2: Monday was the first day of school. First we went to meet our hosts, and then we went to sing in assembly. We listened to each country sing. My favourites were the Latvian children. After school, we went to another school to listen to another choir sing.

After that we walked from the school to the boats to sail on the Lielupe river. We spotted some ducks and at one point, a deer!

After the boats, we went back to our hosts' houses.

Day 3: After school, we went to a sweet shop. This sweet shop was special because there were sweets there that are only in Latvia and unavailable in other countries. After going to the sweet shop, we went to a sight-seeing tower. From the tower we could see the hotel we were staying in, schools, and other buildings. Day three was one of my favourites.

Day 4: On Wednesday, we went to Camp Ledini where there was an outside swimming pool. We went to get food first and then we went to swim. All of us from Wales went into the pool. We were the first ones in and the last ones out! After that we danced traditional dances which was a good opportunity to make new friends.

Day 5: On Thursday, we went to Tērvete nature park. We walked around to a section where there were taxidermies and facts about them. Then we walked over to an area where there were insects made out of wood and we had to say if they were friends or foes. Day 5 was also one of my favourite days.

Day 6: On Friday we went to the beach and dipped our feet into the Baltic Sea. It was very cold! After the beach we went to get pancakes. One was sweet and one was savoury. Then we went back to our hosts for a short while. At five o’clock, we went to the school to get ready for the parade to celebrate the birthday of Jelgava. In the parade, I talked to Christina, a teacher from Greece, about Greek mythology, my favourite interest.

Day 7: On Saturday, we woke up at eight o’clock and headed for Riga airport. We arrived back home at eight o’clock in the night - I was just in time for my brother’s birthday.

We’re very lucky to have trips like this and I’m very grateful to Ysgol y Dderi for giving us such opportunities.

COEDWIG GYMUNEDOL LONG WOOD COMMUNITY WOODLAND Celebrations It seems that summer has crept up on us this year and is now in full effect. Spring and summer see a shift in the nature of the work here at Long Wood. The raspberries have already flowered and the rosebay willow herb is shooting up along the woodland edges and will soon be providing late season forage for visiting bees, butterflies and other invertebrates.

In June, Long Wood were pleased to welcome the Llais y Goedwig group as part of their annual gathering. The group, hosted this year by Denmark Farm, visited for an afternoon and enjoyed workshops on woodland management, timber framing, sawmill operation and forest schooling.

Our summer activities focus on attending shows and hosting events here at the woodlands. We will be attending the Lampeter Agricultural Show and the Lampeter Food Festival promoting our services and our goods, so do pop in and say hello if you are there on the day. If you’ve got a timber supply query that you think we may be able to help with, one of our staff will be pleased to answer your questions. Unlike last year, we have no large scale celebrations planned this summer at Long Wood but will focus on small scale, more personal events including further arts exhibitions at Canolfan Long Wood over the weekends, family pond dipping and other outdoor activities. You can keep up to date with these

activities by checking here in the Grapevine, on our website or via our Facebook page.

Our Woodland Wednesday volunteer group continues to deliver in the woods. They undertake everything from path maintenance to the more recent hare and dragon themed installations. We are grateful to each of our regular and occasional volunteers who continue to give up their time to deliver tangible change that improves the visitor experience here at the woodlands. If you are interested in joining this group of mixed ages and mixed abilities, why not give us a call, drop us an email or just pop in. The sessions run from 10am-4pm on Wednesdays (but you are obviously free to leave whenever you like!).

Dont forget, we are also running a regular photo competition. This month’s theme is “Leaves and Flowers” so get creative, get out into the woods and send entries to info@longwood-lampeter.org.uk before 5pm, Monday 17 July, for your chance to win a bird or bat box.

Entry Classes for 15 & under; and 16 and above You can enter as many photos as you like Once we've whittled down to the final 5 they will go to a popular vote on our Facebook page Prize would be for collection (unless you are local and we can drop it off on the way).

Good Luck!

Sculptors Garden & Bwlchau Duon Gardens OPEN FOR CHARITY as part of the NATIONAL GARDEN SCHEME Sunday 25 June Raising funds for McMillan cancer care, Marie Curie cancer support and many other worthy charities.

A joint opening of the Sculptors garden and Bwlchau Duon in the village of Ffarmers, will see these gardens open in aid of charity. The admission fee of £5 includes both gardens and all the funds raised go to charity. The gardens will be open on 25 June from 2–6pm.

Sculptors Garden can be found in the centre of the village of Ffarmers and was developed by the owners who are both sculptors. They have been multi award winners at the Chelsea Flower show. The courtyard garden with formal and informal planting on different levels was created to form back drops for their garden sculptures. Leading on to a newly opened piece of land giving a contrast of a shady area of established beech trees, natural stream and meadow.

Bwlchau Duon which is further up the mountain on the out skirts of Ffarmers is a 1 acre, ever evolving garden set in the foothills of the Cambrian mountains at 1100ft. This is a plant-a-holics haven, where borders are full of unusual plants as well as lots of old favourites. There are raised vegetable gardens, a 100ft herbaceous border, newly planted natural bog area and winding pathways through semi-woodland with magnificent views over the Cothi Valley. There are also rare breed turkeys, chickens, geese and rabbits.

There will be home made teas available at both gardens and a interesting range of plants for sale at Bwlchau Duon.

Sculptors Garden, Old Post office, Ffarmers is 7 miles SE of Lampeter, 8 miles NW of Llanwrda. On A482 take turning to village of Ffarmers, SA19 8LQ. Sculptors Garden is opposite Drovers Arms.

Celebrations

Cymdeithas Hanes Llambed The current series of talks and lectures came to a close with the May meeting, when Hannah Epicheff, House Steward at Llanerchaeron gave a Power-point presentation on the renovations at Llanerchaeron, and its history over the past 2 centuries. Selwyn Walters, Chairman, thanked her for her interesting and informative talk.

The Annual General Meeting was held during this meeting, and the Chairman and Treasurer gave good and favourable reports for the past year, - both for Cymdeithas Hanes and The Museum, which is run by our members. Gaenor Parry resigned from the Committee, and was thanked for her work since the beginning of Cymdeithas Hanes, and latterly as Education Officer for the Museum. Yvonne Davies stepped down as Press Officer, and Euros Jones and Rev. Beti Morris left the Executive Committee. They were replaced by Alan Leech and Angela Roberts. The other officers remain the same as last year. During the June executive meeting, Alan Leech agreed to take on the post of Press Officer.

The annual Summer outing at the end of June was to the Woollen Mill at Drefach Felindre, and on to the Museum of Power at Rhydlewis. This visit was arranged by our Secretary, Barbara Jones.

The new season of talks will re-commence in September, more information in the next issue of Grapevine.

Amgueddfa Llambed / Lampeter Museum Another valuation Day was held at the Museum during the month of June, and quite a number turned up with their belongings.

A grand raffle has been organised for the Museum funds, tickets on sale now at the Museum and with Cymdeithas Hanes members, so please support the Museum by calling in and buying a ticket.

Yvonne Davies

The word conjures up soft focus images of food, family, laughter, music and maybe even a bit of dancing. I think of day dreaming, planning, preparation, hard work and even stress. I dig deeper and my work (Postnatal support and Reproductive Healing) means my thoughts go straight to women. The everyday Masterminds behind our celebrations - times of joy, hard work and ritual so essential to the happiness and wellbeing of social groups the world over. And I wonder how often we celebrate women?

We have Mother’s Day and International Women’s Day marking the awesomeness of women - BIG public statements that come round once a year to remind us of how great women are. And then we forget – drinking in Magazine Covers , TV Shows, Adverts, Fashion gurus, Parenting gurus who belittle us and play on our Not Good Enough Feelings and our not so secret fears.

In my work I bear witness to the stories and experiences of women – their fears, feelings, hopes and dreams, sadness, loss, trauma, triumphs and celebrations. Women who have just grown a whole human being and pushed that little person out of their amazing bodies worrying about an extra belly roll and pre maternity jeans. Women giving their all to grow and nourish little people, continually second guessing their parenting decisions.

Women growing older, worrying about grey hairs and laughter lines, health and “women’s issues DOWN THERE”, invisibility and loss of value as they transition from Mother to Enchantress and Crone. I hear much self-criticism and self-deprecation and I hear little celebration of power, knowledge, wisdom and achievement. And I want to nourish that in the youth, beauty and wealth driven celebrity culture we live in.

The dictionary definition of Celebration is: “to perform (a sacrament or solemn ceremony) publicly and with appropriate rites to honour especially by solemn ceremonies to mark, hold up or play up for public notice.”

And I think it is time we remembered to celebrate and honour ourselves as women. In private moments as well as on public occasions!

Come along to fortnightly Cwtch Up Mothers Lunches in Mydroilyn Village Hall to celebrate your Mothering or get in touch if you’d like to learn more about Mizan Therapy’s self-care techniques for Honouring your Womb and Reproductive Health.

A Resurgence for Transition Llambed?

A Guerilla Gardening project like we saw in Demain -

At our screening of the film Demain (“Tomorrow”) on 3 June, we asked people to fill in Postcards to Tomorrow with their hopes and concerns for tomorrow's world.

We’d like to be able to take some of the responses forward and develop them - if there are people in the community who would like to join in.

Incredible Edible Todmorden in West Yorks, where people have planted fruit, nuts, veg, salad leaves in unused spaces all over town.

We recommend the inspirational online TED talk by its founder Pam Warhurst (search her name at www.ted.com ).

Maybe the council would help, or maybe we could “just do it!” like Pam and her friends did.

Is it too late in the year? Let’s plan together for next year. Are you up for it?

Are you interested in seeing any of these initiatives start up in Lampeter?

a Repair Café like the ones that have started in Machynlleth, Cardiff, Llandrindod Wells - see https://repaircafe.org/en It’s a free get-together where people share, and teach each other, skills for repairing or mending their broken or worn-out possessions - clothes, toasters, electronic gadgets! This not only reduces the amount of “stuff” going into landfill sites, but is also fun and satisfying in itself.

So do you have repair-type skills, and some time to spare for a “make do and mend” project? Or are you eager to learn, or to teach your children simple repairs (sewing on a button, for starters)?

Or we could have a foraging workshop… learn how to cook roadkill (yes!)… start a community renewable energy scheme…

Have a look online, or in the library, at projects other Transition Towns have created.

What would you like to see happen here, and can you help make it happen?

Some of the hopes expressed on the postcards were:

Victoria Hall needs a bit of help!

As you probably know, Victoria Hall is run by a small group of volunteers who form TLDT, a not for profit company. At the moment, there’s more to do in running and improving the hall than there are people to do it!

We really need an extra volunteer to take responsibility for the cleanliness of our catering kitchen. This would involve a bit of day to day cleaning and tidying (we pay to have it deep cleaned at regular intervals), keeping up the necessary paperwork to record this, and making sure we’re stocked with cleaning materials, bin bags etc. Ideally the person doing this should have food hygiene certification or be willing to gain this. We would be happy for this person to also make use of the kitchen when it’s not booked.

Could you help with this?

Would you like to be involved in supporting Victoria Hall?

If you’re interested in this please get in touch with us via email: victoriahall.llambed@gmail.com Facebook: Victoria Hall Lampeter or call in to a People’s Market (2nd and 4th Saturdays) to chat to one of TLDT. Diolch / Thanks 15

That all Llanbedr and surrounding area residents can live and work HERE in community for all * “A flourishing biosphere and a convivial society” (quote from Colin Tudge who came to town to speak at a Green Party event).

* Recreating a healthy and peaceful world… a world my grandchild can live in… * Yes, we can!

15-16 Gorffennaf 2017 Rhwng 10am. a 4-30pm yn Abaty Ystrad Fflur, Pontrhydfendigaid, SY25 6ES NI CHODIR TÂL MYNEDIAD I’R DIGWYDDIAD NA’R BENEB Dydd Sul 16 bydd cyfle I ddathlu

1000 o Fflynddoedd o Addoli yn Ystrad Fflur a chyfle I weld Cwpan Nanteos 16

A Special Weekend at Strata Florida Last August, the Strata Florida Trust bought a complex of historic buildings, called Mynachlog Fawr which lie immediately to the south of the Cadw monument. These include the original gentry home of the Stedman family, built out of the remains of the Abbey’s Refectory. The intention is to preserve the buildings using traditional materials and skills and use them to create the Strata Florida Centre. This will promote greater understanding of, and access to, Strata Florida’s important history within Wales, and build an experience for all who come around the extraordinary cultural and spiritual values of the place. It will promote also its historic landscape setting, the story of Welsh life since the Dissolution and the story of the Celtic monastery which was there before the Cistercians.

To present all this to the public and to the local communities we are holding a two-day event, called ‘Dathlu Ystrad Fflur’ (‘Celebrating Strata Florida’) on the weekend of 15 & 16 July in and around the Abbey site and the recently-acquired property. Cadw are allowing the public into the monument free of charge on both days and the Trust will make no charge for entrance to the event. There will be things for everyone, of all ages, to see and do, and everything that happens on these two days will be related to the long history of the place. The event will also launch the Council for British Archaeology’s Welsh Festival of Archaeology and so there will be demonstrations of archaeological techniques and discoveries, including an excavation children can join in as part of a Young Archaeologist’s Club.

In collaboration with the National Library of Wales the Nanteos Cup will be on public display in front of the High Altar of the former Abbey Church, but on the Sunday only.

On the Saturday (15), there will be Talks in the parish church of St Mary’s by eminent scholars about the history of Strata Florida; as well as by the sculptor of the Pilgrim, a figure on the hill behind the Abbey. There will be four Guided Walks: the Abbey ruins; the Trust’s buildings and our plans for their future; the archaeology and ecology of Abbey woods; and the excavated medieval Gatehouse. Other Activities (including many for children) include re-enactments, demonstrations of traditional crafts and skills, performances, workshops, story-telling, medieval music and harp performances. For children in particular the Small World Theatre will have performances with giant puppets, story-telling and workshops making tabards; the Freemen of Gwent will see people in medieval costume, armour and weapons with re-enactments of how battles were once fought; a chance to create small sculptures from soapstone and make leatherwork embossed with medieval decorations; and they can enjoy activities devised by the Trust and the Royal Commission for Ancient and Historic Monuments in Wales. There will also be Stalls selling local crafts as well as large Exhibitions about the story of Strata Florida by the Trust and its partners. In the evening there will be a Twmpath in Pantyfedwen Village Hall, Pontrhydfendigaid.

On Sunday (16) in addition to most of the activities happening on Saturday, including talks on other subjects and poetry readings, we will be ‘Celebrating a 1,000 years of Worship at Strata Florida’. This will consist of short ceremonies spread throughout the day which reflect this long history beginning with a short service taken from the early Book of Common Prayer in the Welsh version of 1620; then Sext, an office of the Cistercian day in Latin with plainchant, and later a Christian Well Service related to the presence of a holy well at the centre of the Abbey church. In the evening in Rhydfendigaid Methodist Chapel will be a Cymanfa Ganu.

To find out more about this, our discoveries and plans for the future please visit our web-site a bit closer to the date: www.strataflorida.org.uk and follow us on Facebook.

(RTEF) Croeso Cymru, mae’r grŵp wedi datblygu ap newydd gyda chwmni digidol ‘Locly’ o Fangor i ddod â thirwedd chwedlonol Ceredigion yn fyw, gan gyflwyno storïau, gemau sy’n seiliedig ar chwedlau, gweithgareddau a gwybodaeth i ymwelwyr wrth iddynt grwydro’r ardal gyda’u ffonau clyfar.

Mae’r ap newydd yn gweithio drwy dechnoleg y System Leoli Fyd-eang (GPS) ac iBeacon i ddod o hyd i’r defnyddiwr a gwthio cynnwys i’w ddyfais. Y bwriad yw annog ymwelwyr i ymgysylltu’n ddyfnach â diwylliant y rhanbarth ac ymweld â mannau sy’n gysylltiedig â’r chwedlau a gynhwysir ar yr ap.

Gyda thref Llambed yn hawlio’i lle yn hanes fel man geni rygbi yng Nghymru, mae’n briodol bod y cynnwys sy’n son am y dref yn canolbwyntio ar ei threftadaeth chwaraeon.

Roedd tymor rygbi 2015 /2016 yn dathlu cant a hanner o flynyddoedd ers chwarae’r gêm rygbi gystadleuol gyntaf erioed yng Nghymru rhwng Coleg Dewi Sant (Y Drindod Dewi Sant bellach) a Choleg Llanymddyfri gerllaw.

Derbynnir yn gyffredinol y cyflwynwyd rygbi i Gymru gan y Parchedig Athro Rowland Williams, a ddaeth yn Is-brifathro Coleg Dewi Sant yn 1850 ac a oedd wedi chwarae Rygbi yn fyfyriwr yng Ngholeg y Brenin, Caergrawnt. Mae Undeb Rygbi Cymru hefyd yn cydnabod pwysigrwydd Llambed i ddatblygiad rygbi yng Nghymru, gan roi ei gefnogaeth lawn i’r tymor o ddigwyddiadau llynedd.

Gydag erthyglau yn archifau’r Brifysgol sy’n cynnwys cyn-fyfyrwyr yn hel atgofion am chwarae rygbi yn Llambed yn y 1850au, credir bod gemau rygbi wedi’u chwarae rhwng myfyrwyr o 1850 ymlaen, er ni chwaraewyd y gêm gystadleuol gyntaf gan ddefnyddio rheolau rygbi tan 1866.

Mae’r hanesydd lleol Selwyn Walters wedi ysgrifennu llyfr o’r enw ‘The Fighting Parsons’ am le’r dref yn hanes rygbi ac mae yntau’n ymddangos ar yr ap ac yn adrodd hanes treftadaeth chwedlonol y dref ym maes rygbi.

Mae Lindsey Gilroy, Swyddog Datblygu Busnes ar gampws Llambed Y Drindod Dewi Sant wedi bod â rhan allweddol yn natblygiad y prosiect ac mae wedi bod yn gweithio mewn cydweithrediad â Phartneriaeth Rheoli Cyrchfannau Ceredigion.

Y Drindod Dewi Sant yn dathlu’i lle yn hanes rygbi Cymru fel rhan o ap Ceredigion - Chwedlau’r Gorllewin I ddathlu Blwyddyn Chwedlau Cymru, mae Prifysgol Cymru Y Drindod Dewi Sant wedi bod yn cydweithio â Phartneriaethau Cyrchfan Ceredigion a Biosffer Dyfi i gyflawni prosiect a fydd yn traddodi straeon, chwedlau a llên gwerin y rhanbarth i gynulleidfa newydd ac ehangach.

Mae cyfraniad Y Drindod Dewi Sant yn canolbwyntio ar le Llanbedr Pont Steffan yn hanes rygbi gan fod y dref yn cael ei chydnabod yn fan geni rygbi yng Nghymru.

Bydd y Brifysgol yn nodi ei rhan yn y prosiect drwy groesawu tîm rygbi'r Scarlets i'r campws a fydd yn rhedeg gweithgareddau ar gyfer plant Ysgol Bro Pedr yn ystod y prynhawn.

Bydd arddangosfa o ddeunydd sy'n gysylltiedig â rygbi hefyd yn cael ei lansio - arddangosfa sydd wedi’i churadu gan fyfyrwyr Astudiaethau Treftadaeth y Brifysgol.

“Mae ap Chwedlau'r Gorllewin yn drosolwg ardderchog o chwedlau cyffrous Ceredigion ac mae’n cynnwys Dewi Sant, Twm Siôn Cati, cwpan Nanteos, a hyd yn oed rhai chwedlau cyfoes megis y sioe deledu lwyddiannus Y Gwyll a ffilmiwyd o gwmpas Ceredigion. Mae’r cynnwys am Lambed yn cwmpasu peth o’r hanes ynghylch sut y daethpwyd â rygbi i Lambed, gyda Selwyn Walters ei hun yn adrodd y stori, ac mae’n cynnwys ffotograffau hanesyddol o’r dref a’r Brifysgol, a gwybodaeth ynghylch Rowland Williams yn ogystal â llun ohono.

“Mae’r Brifysgol hefyd yn lansio arddangosfa rygbi dros dro gan gwmpasu’r cyfnod o eni’r gêm i’r oes gyfredol, a bydd honno ar gael drwy gydol yr haf. Mae’r arddangosfa wedi’i threfnu gan fyfyrwyr Astudiaethau Treftadaeth ac wedi’i chefnogi gan Undeb Rygbi Cymru.”

Yn ystod y dathliadau llynedd, dadorchuddiodd y Brifysgol gofeb ar gampws y dref i goffáu cyfraniad Rowland Williams i rygbi yng Nghymru. Hefyd chwaraewyd gêm rygbi arbennig rhwng y Brifysgol a thîm gwadd yr Academyddion Cymreig (Welsh Academicals).

“Roedd tymor rygbi 2015 / 2016 yn un arbennig iawn i Brifysgol Cymru Y Drindod Dewi Sant. Nododd 150fe mlwyddiant chwarae’r gêm rygbi gystadleuol gyntaf erioed yng Nghymru yn ogystal â chyfraniad Rowland Williams i’r gamp,” meddai Dr Jeremy Smith, Deon Cyfadran y Dyniaethau a Pherfformio yn Y Drindod Dewi Sant.

“Ein nod o hyd yw codi ymwybyddiaeth am gysylltiad Llambed â’r gêm ac ar yr un pryd caniatáu i staff a myfyrwyr y Brifysgol, trigolion Llambed a chefnogwyr rygbi ar draws Cymru ddarganfod mwy am ei hanes a'i gwreiddiau,” ychwanegodd.

“Rydym ni’n ymfalchïo’n fawr yn rôl y Brifysgol yn natblygiad rygbi ac wrth ein bodd ein bod ni’n gallu dathlu lle Llambed yn hanes rygbi drwy fod yn rhan o brosiect ddigidol mor gyffrous.”

Celebrating at UWTSD - Graduation Lampeter’s Graduation ceremony is being held on the 7 July this year. We are very proud of all those who will be celebrating completing their studies with us this year and look forward to welcoming their friends and families to both the campus and the town on the 7 July.

Celebrating Harmony and Peace The University is really pleased to host, on the 11 July, a day dedicated to Chinese alternative therapies, medicine and heritage. The day will consist of a range of different workshops and practical sessions enabling people to understand and sample the rich variety of alternative approaches to healing the body, mind and spirit. For example there will be sessions on Chinese alternative medicine, Tai Chi and Kung Fu demonstrations, and traditional Chinese clothing and music. The University will support with its own practical workshops on mindfulness, wellbeing, Chinese acupuncture, meditation techniques and yoga. The event is free of charge and we hope as many people from the local community can attend all or some of the sessions. Chinese food will be available in the Refectory. For more information contact Jonathon Harries – Jonathan.harries@uwtsd.ac.uk 01570 424723 UWTSD celebrates rugby heritage as part of Ceredigion’s Legends of the West app On Tuesday, 23 May, the University of Wales Trinity Saint David (UWTSD) celebrated its place in Wales’ rich rugby history as it launched its involvement with a new and innovative heritage app. To mark Wales’ Year of Legends, University of Wales Trinity Saint David has been working in partnership with Ceredigion and the Dyfi Biosphere Destination Partnerships to deliver a project that will bring the region’s stories, legends and folklore to a new and broader audience.

UWTSD’s input focuses on celebrating Lampeter’s place in rugby history with the town being recognised as the birthplace of rugby in Wales.

The University marked its involvement in the project by welcoming the Scarlets rugby team to the campus to run activities for the children of Ysgol Bro Pedr during the afternoon.

An exhibition of rugby related memorabilia was also launched – an exhibition that’s been curated by the University’s Heritage Studies students.

Celebrating at UWTSD

With funding from the Regional Tourism Engagement Fund (RTEF) from VisitWales, the Ceredigion and the Dyfi Biosphere Destination Partnership group has developed a new App with Bangor based digital company, Locly to bring Ceredigion’s legendary landscape to life, delivering stories, legend based games, activities and information to visitors as they roam the region with their smartphones. The new app, works with GPS and iBeacon technology to locate the user and push content to their devices, encouraging visitors to engage more deeply with the culture of the region and explore the places and spaces associated with the legends contained on the app.

As Lampeter is the birthplace of Welsh rugby, it’s fitting that the content about the town focusses on its sporting heritage.

The 2015/2016 rugby season marked the 150th anniversary of the first competitive rugby match ever played in Wales between St David’s College (now UWTSD) and nearby Llandovery College.

It is widely accepted that rugby was introduced to Wales by the Rev. Professor Rowland Williams, who became Vice-Principal of St David’s College in 1850 and who’d played Rugby Football as a student at Kings College, Cambridge. The Welsh Rugby Union also acknowledges Lampeter’s importance to the birth of rugby in Wales, giving their full support to last year’s season of events.

With articles in the University’s archives featuring former students reminiscing about playing rugby at Lampeter in the 1850s, rugby matches were certainly thought to have been played between students from 1850 onwards, although the first competitive match using the rugby rules wasn’t played until 1866.

Local historian, Selwyn Walters who has written a book about the town’s place in rugby history entitled The Fighting Parsons features on the app and tells the story of the town’s legendary rugby heritage.

Lindsey Gilroy, Business Development Officer at UWTSD’s Lampeter campus has been instrumental in the development of the project and has been working in collaboration with the Ceredigion Destination Management Partnership.

“The Legends of the West App is a wonderful overview of the exciting legends of Ceredigion and includes St

David, Twm Sion Cati, the Nanteos cup, and even covers some contemporary legends such as the successful TV show Hinterland filmed in and around Ceredigion. The Lampeter content covers some of the history of how rugby was brought to Lampeter, with an audio narration

by Selwyn Walters himself, including historical photographs of the town & University, and information about Rowland Williams as well as his portrait.

“The University is also launching a temporary exhibition of Rugby covering the period from the birth of the game to the current era, that will run over throughout the Summer. The exhibition has been curated by our very own Heritage Studies students and has been supported by the Welsh Rugby Union who’ve loaned us some artefacts from their collection.”

“The 2015 / 2016 rugby season was a very special one for the University of Wales Trinity Saint David. It marked the 150th anniversary of the first competitive game of rugby played in Wales as well as noting Rowland Williams’ contribution to the sport,” says Dr Jeremy Smith, Dean of the Faculty of Humanities and Performance at UWTSD “It is our continued aim to raise awareness of Lampeter’s connection with the game whilst also allowing University staff and students, the people of Lampeter and rugby fans across Wales to find out more about its history and its origin,” he adds.

“We are very proud of the University’s role in the development of rugby and are delighted to be celebrating Lampeter’s place in rugby history by being part of such an exciting digital project.”

A class of seven-year-olds are making maps to show where their food comes from. Choosing suitable symbols, they mark their homes, the school dining room, the local cafes, chip shops and the supermarkets where their parents shop. The weave of their daily lives is revealed: the Saturday shop at Tesco followed by football practice, Sunday lunch at the pub, the family meal in the evening or maybe chips on the way home from school. Then they go a bit further up the food chain: where do these shops and cafes get their food from? It’s time for a discussion about farms and whether you can grow oranges in the UK.

The children soon realize how much they don’t know.

They plan an enquiry into the matter, using the internet and interviews. A farmer comes in to answer their questions, and it’s then that the magic happens.

Children are enthralled to find out that it might actually be someone’s job to grow potatoes, milk cows and drive tractors. They lap up not just the fascinating details – like the existence of machines for scratching the backs of cows and how the potato farmer buys his potatoes back from the supermarket in the spring because he doesn’t have cold storage on the farm and his own potatoes have started to sprout by the end of the winter – but also the generalities of what it feels like on the inside of farming. “What’s good about being a farmer?” “If you hadn’t decided to be a farmer, what job would you have chosen?” they ask more than once.

He talks about being in the fresh air, caring for animals, sharpening his skills and deriving satisfaction from producing food that people need.

Without thinking about it, he is giving the children a lesson in values. This matters, because children are growing up in a world that endlessly gives them the message that happiness comes from earning lots of money, having the latest gadgets and wearing the right brands of clothes. The education system, meanwhile, is increasingly based on the notion that academic achievement is all that really matters, leading to an emphasis on the things that can be measured – numeracy rather than creativity, literacy rather than self-expression. Qualities like kindness and courage, literally, don’t count. This can create a dichotomy between success, status, money and security on the

cont.d. one hand, and generosity, community and connection with nature on the other, and it is worth a closer look at what is going on.

Research from social psychology collated by the Common Cause project, which aims to make compassionate values central to public life, reveals a complex picture. It shows that we all hold a broad range of values, many of them apparently contradictory, but all corresponding to a genuine need. Thus, success is an important value (if you doubt that, consider failure), but so is humility, in the sense of appreciating our dependence on others. Our brains however find it hard to hold both these values at once, and so we seesaw between them, depending on where we are and what we are doing. In the garden, cutting lettuce for dinner, it is easy to feel close to nature, but in the bright lights of the supermarket we easily forget that and look for a tasty bargain. Similarly, talking about money makes us selfish, while the story of a refugee child drowning can inspire an upsurge of generosity.

What does this mean for education? A fascinating experiment carried out at Cardiff University shows how excessive enthusiasm for academic success might have unintended consequences. The experimenters asked one group of people to sort through cards bearing words like ‘capable’ and ‘successful’, so that they were tuned into their desire for achievement, while another group sorted words associated with altruism, like ‘forgiveness’ and ‘helpful’. They were then given a puzzle to solve, and asked to help the experimenter with a task. The result was that the group that had been primed for achievement did better at solving the puzzle than the other group, but they also turned out to be less likely to help the experimenter. Could it be that pushing young people to pass exams will make them selfish?

Fortunately, good teachers – left to themselves – know how to guide children towards a more rounded view of life, helping them to widen their circle of concern from themselves and their friends to humanity in general and to nature and the planet. They see how the security of belonging to a family or nation can nurture their curiosity and give them the confidence to explore new worlds, coming up with fresh solutions to the challenges that humanity faces. They know that success is a wonderful thing, but it needs to be contextualised. Achievement should help children to develop self-respect and confidence, and to share their gifts with others; it should not be about becoming ever richer and more powerful at the expense of the planet. And that is where food

education comes in – as an antidote to consumerism, targets and competition.

There is something inherently democratic about food. We are all equal in our need for it. Sitting around the table for a meal reminds us that we all deserve to eat, and that we have an obligation to ensure that others can too. Studying the food chain cuts through the notion that we are selfmade individuals, and reminds us of our interdependence.

Not only do we rely on a vast worldwide network of farmers, growers, supermarket shelf-stackers, cooks, bakers, abattoirs, vets, food scientists and lorry drivers to feed us three times a day, but we are all ultimately dependent on healthy soils, rainfall, sunshine, bees, worms and the rest of the biosphere to keep us alive. We cannot separate ourselves from this.

On a farm visit, children encounter the natural world, appreciating the compromise between human needs, animal welfare and wildlife. When they make the connection between farm animals and the food chain, or see the uncultivated margin around a cereal field where wildflowers and insects flourish, or learn how drought and flooding can destroy crops, they see the tough decisions that need to be made if we are to feed ourselves. Back in school, following crops such as broad beans and potatoes from seed to plate, they gain skills and confidence as they learn to partner with the rhythms of the seasons. The enthusiasm and earnestness with which some children will plant, weed and dig in the school garden suggests they are gaining something more necessary to them than exam results. Maybe it is because they sense their need for a deeper connection with nature, which according to the RSPB report Every Child in Nature is an important support for health, well-being and personal and social skills.

The school curriculum is notorious for its pendulum swings, from a prescriptive top-down approach to local autonomy, from narrow academic goals to a child-centred focus. Schools may yet be freed from the assumption that they exist to produce a skilled workforce that attracts inward investment, and instead be encouraged to embrace a wider more holistic vision of the education they provide. In Wales, a new curriculum arriving from 2018 balances academic achievement with ethical citizenship, creative expression and confidence, and offers hope of a fresh start in our schools. Until that time, food education should be embraced not just because of the contribution it can make to attainment but also for its moral basis. It’s time to give children a proper grounding in the interdependence of humans and nature, starting with the meals they eat three times a day.

Multiple Sclerosis Support Group - Ceredigion ‘Celebrations’ Today we have had, at our house, Hazel (chair) and Rod Ellis from Ceredigion MS branch, plus Urtha Felda from MS Cymru, to discuss issues arising for our branch, and with our roles as Support Volunteers. We talked about the success of our Support Group in Lampeter, ‘Celebrations’, although this week nobody turned up, in the awful weather, even the Mustard Seed was very quiet! The generosity of the Mustard Seed to allow us to use their ‘back room’ for free is to be applauded, ‘Celebrations’.

We have decided that we will have a trip to the National Botanic Gardens, probably in July (date to be confirmed) Celebrations’.

We will be working on plans for a conference to be held in Lampeter about Progressive forms of MS with support from Urtha and MS Cymru, and lottery funding. I have always felt that progressive MS has been left out of discussions and the media, and feel now that this conference will be a good acknowledgement of the fact that people with progressive MS can be living very isolated lives, especially in rural areas where transport may be an issue. As Support Workers we really want to help but apart from talking to people in this situation there seems little we can do. By holding this conference, we can highlight the issues. It will have eminent speakers, plus workshops.

We shall now put in for a lottery grant. A similar conference has recently been held in North Wales and we want to do something here in our part of Wales. We shall hopefully help people, highlight the issues, and bring them to the attention of the media and politicians, and develop a network of people for the future. When this all comes off there will certainly be ‘Celebrations’. Phew!

‘Celebrations’ were certainly in abundance when Graham and I went, with friends, to Chelsea Flower Show. It was such an amazing experience. ‘Celebrations’ and thanks to the lady who paid for our trip and to National Express Coach drivers and staff for their excellent service for me, travelling as a disabled person.

The MS nurse, Sue Mullock, is coming to our July meeting so if you have questions for her, or me come and join us on July 3rd at 1.303.30, in The Mustard Seed back room. We welcome anybody with MS, carers, and anybody wanting to know more, from wherever you are. You are also welcome to our Aberystwyth group which meets in the new Tesco’s community/charity room 12.30-2.30 on the 2nd Tuesday of the month.

Life is a Celebration!

Even when things aren't great, there is always something, no matter how small, that can be celebrated. Whether it's sitting with a nice cup of tea and the latest copy of the Grapevine, sharing a smile with a stranger or watching the joy on your dog's face as it explores the undergrowth - every day gives something to treasure and celebrate.

By consciously noticing and rejoicing in the positives in our lives, we become more aware of them and notice them more and more. It's like when you are buying a new car and, suddenly, everywhere you see the same car as yours. Or when I was pregnant, the world was suddenly swarming with babies and prams. Our conscious mind tunes in to whatever is important to us at that time. By noticing the positives, our reality can therefore be seen from an increasingly positive angle.

It's easy to only focus on the negatives though, and many of us get stuck in that trap. We have a tendency to focus on the things that are going wrong in our lives, that didn't go as well as we wanted. Add to this the constant barrage of negative media stories and we can end up having quite a skewed perspective of our world.

Being thankful and celebrating the positives every day has been shown to improve feelings of well-being and to help reduce depression and anxiety. Even if you don't struggle with these things, there's no such thing as too much good stuff, so let the celebrations begin!

Daily Exercises to Celebrate Life!

At the end of each day take a few moments to think about: Something you've enjoyed that day Something you are grateful for that day Something you are satisfied with that day There are no wrong or right answers – it's just whatever you feel that day. The negatives may try and creep in but make sure you don't dwell on these. Push them gently aside.

This is your time to celebrate the goodness of your day … and to go to sleep with a smile on your face!

Recent Reviews Who is The Decision Maker?

Review of “I, Daniel Blake” benefit screening at Cellan Film Club 19 May A packed hall saw this Ken Loach film, which Cellan Film Club screened in support of Lampeter Food Bank. Food donations and more than £250 were given, for which we are truly grateful.

The film has been described as a “slow-mo train wreck that you know is going to end badly”, but suspense about the outcome is not the main reason to see it. We followed the travails of Dan and Katie (whom he befriends after she is rehoused from London with her two children), as they struggle to negotiate the benefits system, find work and to put food on the table.

It starts with Dan receiving a letter telling him The Decision Maker has refused his claim for ESA because he is fit for work (despite being told by his heart specialist he must not work). He wants to appeal but cannot apply to do so until he has been called by The Decision Maker: the letter has apparently arrived too early. There is no way he can call the Decision Maker himself, and he cannot meet the Decision Maker, who is referred to frequently by staff at the job centre in their dealings with claimants. He simply has to wait and is told to apply for Job Seeker’s allowance (even though forbidden to work by his specialist).

This is one of many systemic Catch-22’s that he and Katie are faced with. The film is based on information from DWP staff (“necessarily anonymous”) and shows the ways that language is used to distance staff from the claimants they see: staff who offer support are “not acceptable”; expecting to have a question answered is “inappropriate”; attempting to explain yourself is “aggressive”. Dan and Katie’s experiences echo what many food bank clients tell us: the choices Katie is faced with to feed and provide for her children are not unexpected but shocking nonetheless. This is a system that we have allowed our governments to create: food for thought indeed.

In contrast, fellow-feeling is shown to Dan and Katie by some ordinary people they meet. None of us can predict what may happen to force similar decisions and problems upon us. That is why it was good to hear on the night about the new Lampeter Food Project, which is offering a free community meal on Thursdays 4-6pm in Victoria Hall using supermarket food that would otherwise go to waste.

Celebrating Community and Creativity!

It’s that time of year again, when the Grwp Llanfair Clydogau artists prepare for their annual Art Exhibition in Llanfair Clydogau Village Hall! This year’s exhibition runs from Thursday 3 August to Sunday 6 August, opening 11am–6pm daily, and with late night opening until 8pm on Friday 4 August.

The artists are all local to the pretty village of Llanfair Clydogau, near Lampeter, and their work encompasses a range of approaches in response to the beautiful Ceredigion landscape and coastline, as well as its people and animals. The group includes felt artists, collograph and lino printers, potters and painters. This year’s guest artists are figurative and mixed-media artist, Blue Powell, and wood carver, Ali Smith, who will join Ali Scott, Sue Powell, Claire Parsons, Aerwen Griffiths, Cynthia Westney and Nantyfelin Potters, Dodie and Jamie Herschel, for the now well-established and popular annual Llanfair Art Exhibition. Of course tea, coffee and homemade cakes will be ‘on tap’ as usual!

The group are also working in collaboration with Long Wood Community Woodland to stage a special art exhibition in the beautiful Visitors’ Centre which stands in the Allt Cefn Foel car park just above the village of Llanfair Clydogau. The stunning building has been constructed using wood almost completely sourced from the woodland, and has walls of straw bale build with a covering of clay plaster.

The Long Wood art exhibition will take place on the weekend of 8/9 July and will be a great opportunity for visitors to enjoy a close look at the interior of this remarkable building, as well as meeting some of the Llanfair artists in person. The exhibition is open from 10am –6pm each day and dogs are welcome, so there’s plenty of opportunity to enjoy the paths through the woodland as well as a stroll around the exhibition. Refreshments will be available over the weekend and Long Wood staff will also be on hand if you are interested in finding out more about the wide range of resources they have to offer, including private hire of the centre for meetings and parties, purchasing of firewood, milled timber and a growing range of finely crafted furniture.

Celebration through Dance Not only is the Grapevine celebrating its 5th Anniversary this year, but the Lampeter Food Festival will grace the University lawns with fabulous food, local produce and entertainment for all, for the 20th time. Make sure you have 29 July in your diary!

Tribal Unity Wales will be dancing two sets in the entertainment tent for the third year, 11.15am and 2.15pm and I’m excited. For the first time, beginners, intermediate and advanced dancers will share the dance they love with you all and, of course, there will be the opportunity for you to come up and join us.

In June, 10 years ago, I taught my first belly dance workshop and have been dancing, teaching and performing ever since, both Egyptian belly dance and American Tribal Style® belly dance. It has been a privilege to introduce ladies to a dance style that supports and strengthens the female form. Many of the moves are ancient, danced by our ancestors, providing us with a link back to our female history.

Ladies in Lampeter have a choice of belly dance classes; Egyptian bellydance and ATS®, so there’s no excuse not to get dancing… that’s something to celebrate!

Nothing remains of this 6th century church building, although the present 12th century church, dedicated to St Tudno, stands on the same site, and has a continuous history. The church is still open for worship, and the patronal festival is still celebrated on 5 June annually; local records record the importance of this local holiday historically.

The churchyard is now closed, but in the early 20th century coffins (and mourners) were transported for burial via the Great Orme Tramway, for which purpose three special tramcars (numbered 1, 2, and 3) were available. Currently tram number 4 is named St Tudno.

Saint Tudno Ascetic Reposed 6 century Remembered June 5 Saint Tudno (pronounced Tidno) was a royal who lived as a hermit in a cave on the Great Orme (‘the great rock’) at Llandudno (church of Tudno) in Gwynedd on the North Wales coast; although it is on the waterline and only accessible by sea. There is also a well which is on private land and also difficult to access.

Saint Tudno is said to have been one of the seven sons of King Seithenyn, whose legendary kingdom Cantref y Gwaelod in Cardigan Bay was submerged by tidal activity.

Tudno studied at St Dunawd's college in the monastery of Bangor Iscoed, in order to make recompense for the drunken incompetence of his father, which had led to the loss of the kingdom under the waves.

Llandudno Seeking a place to live out the religious life, Tudno went to the great ancient limestone outcrop of the Great Orme (Cyngreawdr), jutting from the Creuddyn Peninsula, to bring celebration of the message of Christianity to its people. He lived initially as a hermit in a small coastal cave with difficult access known as Ogof Llech, which provided protection from the elements, and a source of

HISTORY DEPARTMENT TRIP TO BELGIUM In May, a bus full of Year 9 pupils ventured on a Trip to Belgium with the History department. Specifically designed to teach the pupils all about the First World War, the trip allowed them to visit a selection of notable historical sights, monuments and museums. They learnt all about the area’s stories and rich history as the tour guide led them around. Everyone had a fantastic time and would like to thank the teachers for organising such a memorable trip for them.

The Platform on Agriculture and Land Use Post Brexit Lots of vegetables, little meat, maximum diversity! That was a simple but effective message from Colin Tudge, keynote speaker at Ceredigion Green Party's Platform on Agriculture and Land Use Post-Brexit on Saturday 27 May at Victoria Hall, Lampeter.

He argued that if agriculture adopts the above strategy, it will be good for the health of the biosphere and good for the health of humans.

left to right, Wyn Evans, Mared Rand Jones, Jane Powell, Colin Tudge, Tony Little, Grenville Ham and Angie Polkey

margins, they'll run out of food in a matter of days should something go wrong. The system is not resilient at all and we need to urgently address this.

The Platform was ably chaired by Grenville Ham, Leader of Wales Green Party. Himself an expert on community owned renewable energy schemes, he kept the audience on target, asking people to look for solutions rather than focusing on problems. He explained that much of the electricity grid in Wales is full, and described new opportunities to divert excess power generated by small scale renewables to polytunnels, to increase the growing season and provide another income stream.

Summing up the afternoon, he said,

“The most important thing to get right is agriculture.” said Mr Tudge.

“Enlightened agriculture, also known as ‘real farming’, is expressly designed to provide everyone with good food – without cruelty, injustice or wrecking the world.

“Food production needs to be resilient; it needs to be able to absorb shocks such as climate change. Current food production is not resilient and the reason for it is because it is driven by profit. The neo-liberal model of economics is the root cause of the many problems that beset agriculture. We should not view agriculture as just a business, like any other.

“We currently produce enough for 14 billion people, one billion go undernourished, that's one seventh of humanity,” Colin continued, and went on to argue that planet Earth is perfectly capable of feeding 7 billion properly. In the first place agriculture should be seen as the most important policy of all. It also has to be recognised that at the core of most conflicts on this planet lies an agricultural problem and that without resolving these, the wider issues won't be sorted either.

Colin's take on Brexit was that the arguments at the time of the referendum dealt with trivia. He believes Brexit will be bad for the UK, that cheap food will come and flood the markets, that this is not sustainable. It is part of the race to the bottom and the consequences are awful from a food security perspective and will also speed up the loss of species on this planet.

Colin's comments on Brexit were echoed by Wyn Evans, President of the NFU in Ceredigion, who commented, “I think we will come to regret Brexit.”

Wyn spoke about his fear for the Welsh farmers who rely heavily on subsidies. Currently 95% of Welsh food is exported to Europe, 56% to France. He also explained that for many farmers in the hills of Wales, growing crops is difficult.

Bob Shaw from Tir Coed gave an emotional account of his involvement with the soil. He warned that food shortages as experienced in WWII are a distant memory but, because our supermarkets work on such tight time

“Our farmers are a key pillar in our economy and our society here in rural Wales. Every single holding in Wales is different – we can’t have a one size fits all policy. We need to ensure that food production and agriculture is central to government policy.

“Are we going to be seeing a future in which our food market is flooded by products from all over the world, created at much lower environmental standards? One answer could be to place an environmental tax on these sort of products.

“One thing we can be certain of - this is the most uncertain period for agriculture and land use for generations. One of the key things we have kept coming back to today is that we need to have resilience in our agricultural economy because we know climate change is going to throw up some great big shocks.”

The organisers wish to thank all participants for their input. Thanks is due also to Transition Lambed Development Trust for allowing Ceredigion Green Party to use the Victoria Hall. A special thanks goes to Sarah for providing such delicious food.

Ysgol Henry Richard

Urdd Pupils at Ysgol Henry Richard swept the board in the Arts and Crafts competitions at this year’s Urdd National Eisteddfod winning a total of 13 prizes at National level.

Those who visited the Arts Exhibition on the maes in Bridgend were full of praise and many of the winning entries were shown on the daily S4C programmes. Congratulations also to those who won prizes in the literary competitions for creating and presenting a radio programme and a project based on a Welsh legend. During the Eisteddfod week itself further success was proven by Elin Williams who came second in the solo competition for those in years 3/4.

Sports It’s been a very busy season so far on the sports field with pupils competing locally, at county and national events. Teifi were the winning team at the end of a very successful school sports day where we witnessed five long standing records being broken by Zara Evans, Jac Hockenhul and Nia Rees. The Ceredigion NASUWT School team athletics event was held on our school field and special congratulations to the year 7/8 girls athletics team on their success. Pupils also travelled to the Ceredigion county sports in Carmarthen where a total of 33 competitors came in the top three (7x1st, 12x2nd ac 14x3rd).

Congratulations also to Wil Hockenhul on his success at the Urdd National Cross-country event where he came 4th.

A Welsh Youth Parliament

people’s issues are discussed and be an excellent media opportunity to raise awareness for the fledgling youth parliament. Additionally, I hope that the Welsh Youth Parliament should be able to write legislation and motions, which with a reasonably large number of sponsors from National Assembly Members could be debated and voted upon by the Senedd.

I intend to stand for the Welsh Youth Parliament, with elections to be held in late 2017/early 2018. I'm sure you will be hearing plenty about this nearer the time!

For now, the priority is to create the best possible Welsh Youth Parliament, through the ongoing consultation. We need to get as many young people as possible to fill out the consultation below, to ensure the Welsh Youth Parliament has the powers to be effective and actually works: www.YouthParliament.wales The consultation focuses on the following issues: Name: what should our parliament be called?

Aim and Role: what should the aims and roles of our parliament be?

Membership: how should members of our parliament be elected?

Remember: the consultation closes on the 30th of June and the results will be analysed and announced by the autumn.

I'm extremely excited for the creation of the Welsh Youth Parliament. Fill out the consultation to have a strong youth parliament and therefore a strong youth voice and presence in Cardiff Bay. Cyffin

The beginning of the consultation for the upcoming Welsh Youth Parliament began in Ysgol Bro Pedr recently. I was fortunate enough to be part of the effort for a representation of the young people of Wales in the creation of the Parliament for Wales’ young. The Presiding Officer of the Welsh Assembly and former pupil of Lampeter Comprehensive, Elin Jones AM, was there to open the consultation and speak with media.

Elin Jones said: Our duty is not only to today’s voters, but to all citizens whose lives the Assembly touches. Children and young people have the right to take part as citizens now. This consultation is an opportunity to think afresh about how this should happen.

I am very proud to be launching a consultation which means they will have a voice at a national level and put in place a system which will heavily influence the work of our Parliament and decisions makers in Wales.

The Welsh Youth Parliament is not the first attempt at creating a youth parliament for Wales. Funky Dragon was founded for this purpose but never gained traction.

With more professionalism and Assembly support, the youth parliament may have a long-term impact on Welsh politics.

But, this is only possible if the Welsh Youth Parliament has meaningful powers, to stop it from being a mere talking shop. I believe that it should decide what topics are discussed in the Senedd one day a year. This would give it important decisions to make, ensure young

Recent Reviews Celf Llambed Arts Review On Friday night, 26 May, at Victoria Hall in Lampeter we were absolutely spoilt for choice with three sets from some of the most influential music creators new on the scene.

A marvellous night of Cabarave was had by all, it was an absolutely epic night. The night will go down as one of my Cabafaves getting us all ready for the festi season. It was turbo-charged and sweaty with much dancing to be had.

Firstly My Bad Sister, a high energy all singing and dancing duo with amazing mirrored moves and toasting style of lyrical wizardry.

They were accompanied by a mash

up of heavy beats laid down by an awesome selector of breaks and beats. They are a force to be contented with, what a treat.

Support came in the form of a Welsh language elector pop queen from Cardiff, Ani Glas. Her haunting clean voice with an eclectic pop slant was sheer beauty.

The evening was topped off by the stage presence of a master of his craft, the one and only Dutty Moonshine. Having it as always, laying down his baselines and chunky beats with underlying classic sample,s referencing old school tunes and electro swing to boot.

A great evening of dancing and fun 40

was had, stuff to make you smile and have a swing in your step until the next one.

The next big one at the Victoria Hall is 30 June, featuring the one and only Firepit Collective, an edgy anarcho folk trio with bouzouki, guitar and violin. These guys are not for the faint hearted, the real deal, hold on to your hats. Support comes in the form of localish and loved, marvellously saucy band of ragamuffins, the truly unique Quercus Burlesque. This is going to be a stomping night, not to be missed!

Jottings

Over the next few weeks, weather permitting, many of us will be visiting beaches; some of us even fetching up at exotic shores. Wherever the location there are bound to be interesting objects washed up along the tide line and found in any pools left as the tide recedes. In Ceredigion, we have both sandy and rocky beaches, for example Ynys Las and Aberaeron.

From Ynys Las it is possible, at low tide, to walk into the remains of the submerged forest at Borth where prehistoric cattle may have roamed; you may even be lucky enough to find a fossil from that time. You’re more likely to come across a ‘Mermaids purse’. These are the egg cases of Rays and Sharks. The one pictured is most likely from one of the Dogfish species (members of the shark family). Along with crabs, starfish and sea anemones these fish become trapped in the rock pools. Mermaids feature in folk tales from along the Cardigan Bay shore. These young women are usually portrayed as beautiful and alluring, but any man attracted to them ends up in trouble!

A stunning deep red-pink chested bull finch and his more muted mate entertain us whilst gorging on forget-me-not seeds. The bird table is fiercely attended as breeding pairs feed their young and then the fledglings appear too; father great spotted woodpecker proudly feeding his raucous babies from the nut feeder.

Visiting other Ceredigion gardens is another pleasure I will savour in the summer months.

Have a great summer whatever you are celebrating.

Just a flavour of Summer Celebrations at Yr Efail The gales have stopped, the storms moved on and the garden is blooming as if they were never here. Nature is so resilient. My summer breakfast is adorned with freshly picked strawberries and we are planning meals to include broad beans, baby carrots and the first courgettes. These freshest of vegetable flavours bring such simple pleasures with many more to come as the summer unfolds. We are so lucky to be able to grow and cook our own food.

Bottles of elderflower cordial adorn the store shed shelves alongside jams and jellies with chutneys and pickles to follow. The promise of a bumper crop will encourage me to peruse the schedules of local shows and enjoy some friendly (!!) competition.

Finding yellow rattle growing in the meadow and seeing the young saplings become identifiable trees are worthy of a celebratory shout. Donkey muck deliveries ensure the compost heaps are busy creating next year’s goodness. A neighbour’s escaped turkey caused worried nights but a homing instinct (or desire for a corn breakfast!) brought her back before Y Cadno or the jet black, fierce mink could pounce.

Holes in the Harvest

Starburst

by Mandy Pickering

by Karen Gemma Brewer

The summer holidays flamed on we at a loose end hid under the Rhododendrons in Mr. Reutlinger’s garden trying to glimpse his swimming pool.

He knew we were there because every now and then wearing only a rag of a loin-cloth holding a pair of sheers he’d peer into the gloom.

Then we’d run back down the lane into the cover of the woods trail through the wild garlic by the dwindling stream and climb the gate to the wheat fields where scarlet pimpernel bled into gold.

We waded out under a flare of pheasant wings their klaxon calls lifting over the hawthorn as we plunged in deeper, up to our waists trampling the crop into hollow pools.

Submerged beneath a sea of rippling grain we lay on our backs listened to the rustling wheat as we floated in sky.

Or could it be that just like me you have been evolving since the beginning of time.

Enlighten me master, from the birth of language and the first post-it note chiselled in stone, was your existence inevitable as minds pushed for dominance?

From idol to idle hero to zero star to meteor that burned up on re-entry you’re dust on the bed of a four poster ocean your rock and roll now Atlantic wave motion when you raise your voice it’s for more suntan lotion to rub on the gut that hangs from your belt.

You used to hang on my wall.

You should have been bottled preserved for posterity or locked in a cupboard where you couldn’t stare at me while I stare at you a vision that stings.

This picture is locked in a circular memory that spins in my dreams recurring too frequently like the seven inch scratch on your greatest hits record.

They deleted your albums.

Now tell me friend, how can you learn from mistakes if you never make any?

Do you struggle?

Do you feel pain?

Can you feel passion?

Can you go insane?

But most importantly, can you love my children as I do?
