I was on welcoming duty at church today so I carefully practised and used the phrase, "Hapus Dydd Dewi Sant".
I was very pleased with myself. Until I discovered that the correct way to say it is, "Dydd Gŵyl Dewi Hapus!"
Ah, well, I tried.
Everyone was invited to stay on afterwards for cawl (Welsh for soup, traditionally made with lamb, leeks, and other vegetables) and bara brith (literally speckled bread, the name comes from the fruit that goes into it).
Sandra, one of our florally gifted ladies, made little arrangements for the tables.
Yesterday was gorgeous so I began tidying the fruit patch.
I have a cunning plan for the bit at the far end but I haven't it to Husband yet and I need his help. Well, I could do it myself but I'm sure there's a saying about that.
Then in the afternoon we walked with Elder Son, GrandSon3, and Theo to Crawley woods.

What exquisite daffodil centrepieces! Happy St David's Day to you all!
Beautiful posy. I'm glad Theo managed to keep out of the way of the swing. (Theo is the dog, isn't he?)
I love the idea of a fruit patch. Wishing you a wonderful growing season!
Happy st David's day, in any order! I was very nervous about the dog and the swing.
