Y bont: 2004: january: pdf (english)

As we enter a New Year we hope you all had a good Christmas and have recovered from the New Year celebrations.
Our last edition caused us some problems and only through the persistence of A5 Publishing did we succeed in producing edi- tion three. Because of these difficulties the photograph with the caption ‘Who do you recognise?’ might have resulted in the answer being ‘Nobody’, due to the quality of the picture, however, we did receive two replies. This month we have another contribution from Gareth who assures us he has not used any words, this time, which cannot be translated into Welsh! We should also mention the dedicated team who now help with and deliver this news sheet (which is gradually becoming a newspaper)! The time consuming translation into Welsh is carried out by Sue Jones with Tina Lloyd typing. Delivery is by Bronwen Lebbon with assistance from staff and sometimes children from the school. Parc is delivered by Jenny (Fruit and Veg) Jones, the Farms along the A5 by Tina Lloyd, Jenny Jones or Steve Davies do the Morfydd, Eddie Fisher the Fedw. We are very grateful to them all, but if we are to continue without stressing out the few, we need a bit more help from volunteers. For those we do not man-age to deliver to - you can get your copies at the Post Office or the Grouse.
Our article on ‘Where is Carrog?’ brought a varied response as you will read below and we are sure that everyone will be grate- ful that our Community Councillor has already raised the issue. This month has also brought two letters from Janet Fox who already has the issue of the speed limit well in hand. Well done Janet. The Editors have also been in contact with Martin Jones our local MP who has also agreed to pursue the matter.
Please keep the contributions coming in - by 20th January for the next issue. Telephone Ian - 430625 or Paul - 430397 or Colin- Where is Carrog?
