On Wednesday 15th May, two of our members, Margaret V and Dianne joined Aberaeron WI for an evening of 'New Age Kurling'. Neither had done it before and didn't know what to expect, but after a wonderful evening of fun and excitement, they both have said they'll be doing new age kurling again.
Everyone had training for an hour on how to move the 'Kurling Stones' either by hand or by stick and then a knockout tournament was played out and Dianne got through to the semi final.
Tea, coffee and biscuits were provided and a great evening was had by all. Roll on for the next New Age Kurling event.
Despite a very cold evening on March 11th, three members from Llanarth joined members from New Quay and Pontgarreg at the Cross Inn venue for their 'Welsh Tea' evening. A beautiful spread of a 'typical' Welsh tea awaited us - plenty of bread and butter, jam, cheese, Welsh cakes, scones, pikelets and bara brith, with lots of hot tea to wash it all down with.
After we had our fill, we all sang 'Jerusalem' and then the Cross Inn choir entertained us with songs both in Welsh and English to which we all joined in. They then enacted a sketch of the local character known as 'Shani bob man' which was hilarious. The evening ended with us all singing 'Hen Wlad Fy Nhadau'.
Many thanks to Cross Inn WI for a most enjoyable evening.
