[Bards] Eisteddfod et al...

[Quill]

I have officially started a dozen drafts today in response to the
multitudinous subjects that have been brought up and turned over and over in
the discussion of this weekend past. So much I wanted to throw in, yet it
seems like I can't compose my thoughts, the matter gets obsoleted, or I
start to say something and Master Robin goes and says it ten times clearer
and a million time better, and then we divert onto subjects I can't even add
to.

The main point I wanted to put forward was we've got models aplenty to build
a "stand alone event" on. I mean, the name "Eisteddfod" didn't get made up
out of thin air! I once was at an Eisteddfod in Bath for their Bardic Chair,
and to be honest I was sort of expecting something like that this weekend,
only on a smaller scale! (Whoever made the comparison to a Pernese Gather?
Major kudos.)

I have to admit, I'm all in an ardent fervor now; something is happening,
and I want in on it. The matter is very close to my heart, and I want to
help, however I possibly can, in building up  our Eisteddfod to more than a
"peripheral" thing. Come on! Let's build ourselves a Gorseth of Ansteorra
then, and let the awen flow!!
