How it started & how it ended. It’s perfectly possible to fill a TV studio with a whole load of shopping on a rainy day without having to get into a car.
Falch iawn gallu rhoi beic ar y trên a gweithio ar y siwrne i stiwdio Tinopolis ar gyfer cyfrannu at raglen @PrynhawnDaS4C

Hynod galonogol gweld cwmnïoedd yn gwneud newidiadau sydyn iawn yn dilyn cwrs ar ddatblygu cynaladwy. Mae criw newydd o fusnesau bwyd a diod yn dechrau ar y cwrs yr wythnos hon gyda mi @CynnalCymru ar y cyd ag Iain Cox o EcoStudio. Edrych mlaen.

@TheRestHistory @holland_tom @dcsandbrook What non-British person has had the most influence on British history? #RIHLive

[Aled H. Jones @JonesAledH]

@CWBluejackets Might refer to St Nicholas village SE of Cardiff. Old name was "Golych", many references to Dyffryn Golych. "Ych" was often "ich/igh" in English (like Dinbych=Denbigh)

@catbateson @irishacw To a non-Welsh speaker an "ych" was often spelt like "ich" or "igh" such as Dinbych = Denbigh (just a theory)

[Aled H. Jones @JonesAledH]

@irishacw @catbateson Here is the trail I followed: Golych = modern St Nicholas/Dyffryn

Delighted to have published an article with @HistoryToday about the Welsh in the American Civil War

[History Today @HistoryToday]

Plus:
When the Civil War broke out in America in April 1861,
more than 6,000 Welshmen volunteered to fight for the Union.

@JonesAledH details how Welsh soldiers discovered that the cost of assimilation was the loss of their native language:
