Llongyfarchiadau - Congratulations

I am not a sporty person, just ask my friends who have spent a fruitless two years trying to persuade me along to their netball games. However, in deference to my two sons wishes to watch the final of the Six Nations I spent this afternoon on the sofa and to my surprise found I was clenching my fist each time it looked like France would score. I was so pleased when Wales won. I might not understand the rules, I have no desire to start playing, and I have never supported a team before at anything but I think today I found that my heart was with Wales and regardless of blood I felt Welsh.

Typical politicians, always jumping on the bandwagon!

...just kidding ;-)

I found my way to your blog, after following links form a Wikipedia article called: 'List of active autonomist and secessionist movements' http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_active_autonomist_and_secessionist_movements#United_Kingdom_and_associated_territories_.28Europe.29 and was surprised to see the Wales Green Party listed in Wales. I'm led to believe that the Scottish Green Party is in favour of independence, but seeing as the Green party in Wales is part of the Englandandwales Green Party, I'd have thought that even greater devolution was top of it's a priorities. I'd amend the Wikipedia artice myself, but can't find the Green Party's stance on Welsh independence anywhere to back up my edit.

Anyway, as a blogger from Wales, you might be interested in an aggregator called www.blogcymru.com - it might bring more readers here.

Hwyl Rhys
