    Yes happy St David’s day to my Celtic friends.
    I have no Welsh DNA in me but I do have a percentage of Irish. Fortunately any English DNA in me is as common as hens teeth.

    Your English DNA is the bit that allows you to type messages on a modern internet forum in this technical world we live in with relative ease. :)

    The Welsh Dragon - Y Ddraig Goch (always facing to the left) was only adopted as the flag of Cymru in 1959.

    Happy St David's Day - Dydd Gwyl Dewi Sant - to everyone either born in or who have links to the country to the West of Offa's Dyke.
    Thriving Welsh community in Carlton 1940-70 - Welsh Chapel etc. Many descendants of those Taffs still in Barnsley -

    And a happy St David's Day to those who (sadly) haven't a drop of Welsh blood in their veins.

    YMA O HYD ! - WE ARE STILL HERE ! - (despite what the English tried to do to us !)

    I was just reading the BBC news on line and Sheffield City Council acknowledged St David’s day by flying the Scottish Saltire.
    Astounding show of ignorance here.

    As a matter of interest, what's your connection with Barnsley? Are you a Welsh man who now lives in Barnsley or do you live in Wales but have an affinity with Barnsley?

    My grandfather used to own a corgi. Would that qualify me to represent Wales?
