Tryweryn documentary next week 19:33 - Oct 13 with 5799 views | Darran | Capel Celyn was a rural community to the north west of Bala in Gwynedd, north Wales, in the Afon Tryweryn valley. The village and other parts of the valley were flooded to create a reservoir, Llyn Celyn, in order to supply Liverpool and Wirral with water for industry. F*cking Scoucers drowning Welsh homes. http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b06jsxbk | |

Tryweryn documentary next week on 20:22 - Oct 15 with 1677 views | trampie | Surprised the old Free Wales Army hasn't smoked out Lohengrin, they were seen as comic figures by the English press but taken seriously by the Authorities. The threat of things that might have happened [whether real or not] might well have been a result for Wales in a general sense. | |

I was a professional soldier, Tramp. Not a numpty playing dress-up. | |

The FWA got results, Aberfan being a point in case, the problem with lots of professional soldiers in a regular army is predictability and no free thinking meaning they can and have been out manoeuvred and outwitted by so called amateurs. | |

Tryweryn documentary next week on 23:28 - Oct 18 with 1462 views | yescomeon | There are places in Wales I don't go: Reservoirs that are the subconscious Of a people, troubled far down With gravestones, chapels, villages even; The serenity of their expression Revolts me, it is a pose For strangers, a watercolour's appeal To the mass, instead of the poem's Harsher conditions. There are the hills, Too; gardens gone under the scum Of the forests; and the smashed faces Of the farms with the stone trickle Of their tears down the hills' side. Where can I go, then, from the smell Of decay, from the putrefying of a dead Nation? I have walked the shore For an hour and seen the English Scavenging among the remains Of our culture, covering the sand Like the tide and, with the roughness Of the tide, elbowing our language Into the grave that we have dug for it. | |
