MESSAGE FROM OUR PRESIDENT

Thank you for your continued support. I am delighted to back again after my surgery. To all members of my Committee, past and present a heartfelt thank you for your support. A special word of thanks to Pat for acting on my behalf during my absence. I am delighted that Bryce and Olwen Henley have joined the team.  
We all look forward to a busy and enjoyable year ahead. For a start we will be having a "Nosen Lawen" and Welsh Supper next month on 17 June, and I will be asking members for contributions to the program. I know this will be a lovely night of verse, song and happy memories.  
Sylvia Williams, President.  

The rest of this newsletter contains details of our coming events, an article on the early years of WA, and members news.

This is the first Newsletter for 2009. Grateful thanks are due to James Woolcock for keeping the newsletter running for us up to this time.   Apart from Welsh Society news items we are looking for fresh ideas,  interesting news from members, items of news from Wales.  Welsh recipes would be welcome and a few good Welsh jokes!  So contributions from you,  the members, will help make our newsletter informative and fun.  If you have any news for me or interesting items, please contact me or any Committee member.
 

Diolch!
