For those who don’t know why Graham Norton raises a glass to Terry Wogan in song 9, it’s because Sir Terry always warned Graham not to have anything to drink until that point in case he got a bit too tipsy 😂
Such a lovely way to honour a legend 💔
Hey
@RMcElhenney
- I heard you love the Welsh national anthem? 😊🏴 here’s my easy to learn version 👍🏻
Thanks for all you’re doing to promote our language, football and culture. Diolch! 👏🏻
For all those wanting to learn the
@dafyddiwan
classic ‘Yma o Hyd’ before the World Cup starts! ⬇️
A bydd yr iaith Gymraeg yn fyw! ❤️

Diolch for the support yesterday!
I didn’t want articles written & didn’t expect to get any hate for it either, so that’s why I deleted the tweet.
If I don’t get an apology, that’s fine.
But, I will continue to sing Yma o Hyd on every game day because I am proud to be Welsh 🏴
📢 *BIG NEWS* 📢
I can finally share that I’m joining the
@BBCRadioWales
family as a presenter from April 2nd! ❤️
I’ll be presenting my own show every Sunday from 9.30-11am - playing my favourite music, speaking to cool guests and hearing from listeners all over Wales! 🥳🏴
Our postman died suddenly in a road accident.
He was a special friend to all the local people but most importantly the dogs, he gave each one a gravy bone every morning.
We all turned up today with our pets to say goodbye on Cadoxton green.
So touching 😢 we’ll miss you Des. X
I didn’t get to say goodbye to my grandmother last December.
She was in hospital a month and I couldn’t even see her one last time to tell her I loved her.
At the same time,
@BorisJohnson
and mates were having an illegal Christmas party.
How anyone supports them is beyond me.
I AM IN AWE 😲😭👏🏻
For those asking - yes that was me singing my Welsh rendition of ‘Perfect’ by Ed Sheeran on the end credits of the fantastic Scrum V this evening 🙌🏻🏴
Very honoured to have my music paired with this moment!
Here it is for anyone who missed it :
When I heard
@Adamprice
talk in person 3 years ago, a child raised her hand and asked ‘How would you describe Plaid in one word?’ He answered without hesitation, ‘Love, cariad. Love for our country and love for eachother.’ I have supported him ever since.
@Plaid_Cymru
❤️🏴
I remember competing as a kid in the Eisteddfod & my mother went up to a Welsh speaking head organiser & asked a question in Welsh (she was learning at the time). She answered her back in English. We need to STOP DOING THIS. Inclusivity & building confidence in learners is KEY.
Thank you

I have officially SOLD OUT the

tomorrow.
1,000 people.
I am very touched and humbled by this.
As the photo shows - performing was my dream (tiara and all 😂)
Bronnie bach, from the living room to the theatre stage - we did it!
See you all tomorrow for a party ❤️
GANG. I have some news.
This is something I’ve waited my whole career for, something I thought would never happen.
I’M DOING A SOLO UK TOUR 😭❤️
Cannot wait to meet you all. More dates TBC.
All info and ticket links here :
I remember I did a gig once where I was told to go home after the first set for not bringing enough of an audience.
Last night I sold out a 504 seater venue just down the road.
Hard work definitely pays off. So grateful.
Finally got diagnosed with ADHD by a doctor on Tuesday. It was really emotional for me & I can’t believe I finally know who I am after 28 years of trying to work it out.
Took a lot of consultations, tests and savings but so glad I’ve done it.
Anyone who needs advice just DM me.
My mam filmed a snippet of me singing O Holy Night at St Cynog’s Church tonight.
I loved it.
The Lucy J Morgan string ensemble were simply perfect ❤️
#nadoligllawen
So many of you asked for this, diolch!
My brand new bilingual version of ‘I Can’t Help Falling In Love With You’ that was premiered before the Wales V Denmark game in the Euros 🏴❤️
Recorded at Fieldgate Studios.
Enjoy! Mwynhewch!

I said goodbye to my incredible mother in law yesterday. It was the hardest day.
So proud of Cian for speaking so beautifully and being so strong.
She taught me so much in the 8 years I knew her. I’ll miss that smile.
Cwtch your family tonight.

Did a free Christmas sing song at a Care Home yesterday in Ystradgynlais called The Grove.
Thank you for the warm welcome and wonderful singing.
A very emotional day for myself, the residents and staff 🤍🎄

Oof. Bois bach.
My parents are learners.
Didn’t speak Cymraeg at home. Spoke and learned Cymraeg at school, we all nailed our GCSEs & A Levels. No homework issues as everything was sent out bilingually.
It’s this type of ‘I’m not anti-Welsh language but…’ that’s the problem.
Any kids or adults out there holding back on learning an instrument because they can’t read sheet music - don’t.
I can’t read a note of music (I only have a grade 3 in piano by the skin of my teeth) and I’m a professional musician.
Playing by ear/memory is VALID ❤️👏🏻
NID OES ANGEN BOD YN BERFFAITH 😊🏴❤️
English translation :
You don’t have to be so perfect,
Having every mutation correct,
Trying to speak in a way that’s formal,
Or use full sentences to connect,
(Continued below 👇🏻)
Guys there’s NOTHING more emosh for me than releasing a self written/self funded song from my OWN record label 😭
Years of chasing the big guns in the industry. Being told I wasn’t ‘commercial enough’ or to ‘drop the Welsh’. They were wrong!
Believe in yourself, BACK YOURSELF ❤️
I’m in Cardigan recording and decided to book a couple of nights in a local pub. The locals took me under their wing, chatted with me for hours, then walked me to the local indian restaurant where we watched the sun go down over a naan and a pint. Am croeso ❤️
#westisbest
Maybe this is a just known thing, but there’s a site called Cysill Ar Lein which can check all spelling & mutations in Cymraeg for you!
It’s so helpful & gets me to understand mutations (even though I’m fluent).
Dyma’r linc / here’s the link :
And one last thing, having a sing song in a pub is a tradition as old as time in Cymru. It’s where the best songs of our nation were written/performed for the first time. The day where a pub in Cymru prefers blasting chart hits over live singing in Cymraeg is a very sad day.
Not many people know that I can’t read sheet music. I play everything by ear or memory and failed all of my sight reading exams growing up.
Just because you’re not good at one thing, doesn’t mean you can’t adapt and overcome ❤️
I call it ‘playing from the heart not the paper.’
My dad always told me when you’re asked to sing there’s ‘no refusals’ - even through an iPhone while your dog runs around in the background! 🤣
Diolch
@bbc5live
and Adrian for the welcome and for asking me on the show 🏴❤️
O bydded i’r heniaith barhau!
My precious Mamgu passed away 3 days ago, still haven’t processed it.
She was a beacon of light in dark times and always thought of others before herself. Her pride and joy was family.
I wrote Ti a Fi about her and my grandfather.
Wnai byth anghofio ti Mamgu.
Cariad,

Appreciation post for my wonderful local Post Office in Bryncoch, run by a lovely lady called Julie.
She has helped me post over 700 albums since October. Always with a smile.
She gives elderly people a safe place to have a cuppa, a cake and a natter.
Nadolig Llawen Julie ❤️🎄
Our beautiful boy Ronnie died from a car hit today. He was my best friend all the way through lockdown. Always by my side on bad days.

I remember 2 years ago I was looking at my diary for January and I had NOTHING in it.
Not a single bit of work.
Now, Jan 2022 is busier than December.
Being self employed can be so terrifying as there’s no safety net, but if you believe in what you create, you’ll get there ❤️

Another day, another tiktok!
This time, my favourite song - Calon Lân ❤️
This is my own version to the tune of ‘You Raise Me Up’ 😊
Played on the piano I learned piano on.
