  1. Happy #StDavidsDay to all my Welshies around the world! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🌼🐉 I think my mum is making rarebit for dinner, which is not really my favourite, but she may also be making something with leeks. I just want to eat a stack of Welsh cakes and call it a day.

    Walked the dog this morning and got to thinking about how different life looks now. Coming up to six months at Kyndryl.
    Sometimes a career move pushes you right out of your comfort zone. I went from a Microsoft stack into leading Forward Deployed Engineers - and it's been fun to focus on an open source stack. Created the capability, now scaling it to 22,000 engineers.
    Picking up dog poo keeps you grounded.

  5. Very much looking forward to Welsh-language operatic film noir TANAU'R LLOER (Fires of the Moon) premiering on S4C/BBC iPlayer at 9pm:
    "A striking fusion of opera and cinema with a hauntingly beautiful score performed by Welsh National Opera"

  7. Front cover to British Goblins (1880), a book of Welsh myth and folklore. Amongst the supernatural beings described are "Bwbachod", friendly goblins who help out with chores; and "Gwyllion", female fairies who haunt the mountain roads: buff.ly/3tjKPFI #StDavidsDay

  8. Thanks to @jaz and the @teamtoot team, I’ve upped my laptop sticker game (the other stickers were courtesy of @andypiper a while ago). #TootWales

    P.s. happy #StDavidsDay to all.

  9. Remembering Elizabeth Annie Jones on #StDavid’sDay. She died aged 22 in Oct 1916 of TNT poisoning. She had worked at NEF Pembrey. Her mother Mary Anne Williams claimed compensation for her daughter's death. Her name is on the local war memorial #LestWeForget #WomensHistory womenandwar.wales

  10. St Davids day 🌼It’s St David’s Day and the daffodils are in bloom! 💛 Did you know their sunny yellow comes from beta-carotene – think carrots, sweet potatoes – the goodness that helps keep our skin glowing and eyes bright. #StDavidsDay #DaffodilSeason #BetaCarotene

  11. Folklore describes #StDavid granting Irish monk Modomnoc permission to bring bees from his monastery in #Wales to #Ireland in the 6th century David prayed that bees would flourish in Ireland from that day forth Thank you St David! ♡ #StDavidsDay #folklore #tradition #stainedglasssunday #bees

  13. Can’t believe I missed wishing all my Welsh friends a happy #StDavidsDay 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 Went for a walk along the canal today and these reminded me! Greetings from across the Irish Sea! #Cymru #Wales

  14. I went to a #StDavidsDay event today. Theres never been one in my city at this scale before, but my experience at the Celtic Festival that used to happen here taught me to have low expectations. Despite that, I was still borderline offended. The performer was a local singer wearing a kilt 🚫 and singing Irish folk songs. 🚫 Like… wtf. That’s like hosting a Canada Day celebration with everyone dressed like Texan cowboys while playing American folk songs.

  15. CW: Lots of simultaneous in-world events today; CW: long (over 700 characters)
    Today is one of those days on which simply too much happens in the Hypergrid at the same time.

    There's the World Zero Discrimination Day event in ZetaWorlds which starts in a bit over an hour and a half.

    There's the grand opening of OpenSim World's Fair in the Wolf Territories.

    There's an unlisted St. David's Day Dance on the Welsh sim Redoutable in Speculoos Grid.

    Not to mention a whole lot of more or less regular events.

    Maybe we'll do some event hopping today.

  16. “It’s not that he doesn’t appreciate beauty, he just appreciates it in his own way. I mean, if a poet sees a daffodil he stares at it and writes a long poem about it, but Twoflower wanders off to find a book on botany.”
