Hello guys! So glad it is this time of year again.
The title of this thread sounds a lot like Welsh Farmers but I am really looking for lovely FAWM folks from God's Own Country.
I'm in Swansea. Maybe we could meet up this month and write songs? Or just talk about how awesome FAWM is.
Anyway, just say hello. -

Hello! I’m near Montgomery in Mid Wales. Probably a bit far for meeting up but nice to know I’m not alone :)
-
@mariekevinkmusic Jan 2022
Well, we could end up with a big Welsh FAWM Fest at the end of it all. Who knows.

Did you know Feb 4th is Welsh Music writing day?! We need to make it a thing this year! Hey @mariekevinkmusic !
-
@mariekevinkmusic Jan 2022
Is it? Well, it is now. Let's set up a Skirmish with a Welsh theme for that day :-)

Was there only the one FAWM song in Welsh last year, or were there more? I can't wait to visit one day. Some of my family came from Aberystwyth.

Time to hit the Welsh Duolingo lessons again! ;)

@mariekevinkmusic Jan 2022
@metalfoot I started that and now it keeps reminding me that I gave up after 4 lessons...

Hello @mattwdunn. I am itching too. To get started I mean. Hopefully more Welshies will join us.

Last year, one Welsh FAWMer(I don't recall who; it was lost in the site relaunch) gave me a phrase seen on public signage in Wales for me to turn into a song: "tra bydd golau coch sefwch yma." This year I intend to make good on it and turn it into a song as part of my Foreign Signage project.

@emkaydeebee Feb 2022

Don’t forget Feb 4th is Welsh song writing day! -
