IEUAN A PLAID CYMRU - IEUAN AND PLAID CYMRU

Welais adroddiad neithiwr am araeth Ieuan Wyn Jones yng ngynhadledd Plaid Cymru yn Llandudno. Roeddwn yn meddwl i ddechrau os oedd yn siarad am reolaeth Plaid a Llafur o'r Cynulliad pan oedd yn son am doriadau ar y gorwel i arian yng Nghymru. Be ddiawl mae Plaid wedi ei wneud yn y cynulliad ond torri, torri a thorri ar arian i'r ardaloedd yma yng Ngwynedd. Does yna ddim ysgol yn y Cynulliad ond maen't yn cyflogi 700 o staff yn yr adran addysg yno. Swm syml 700 x £40,000 (£28M) hyn heb wrth gwrs costau eraill i'r adran.

Rhywbeth arall ddywedodd fod Plaid Cymru hefyd yn cynrychioli unigolion Saesneg eu hiaith yng Nghymru. Bu bron i mi chwdu ar fy nghoffi. Does gan Plaid ddim diddordeb mewn cynrychioli unigolion Saesneg eu hiaith ar wahan y buasai yn eu galluogi i gael grym. Mae hanes rheolaeth Plaid yma yng Ngwynedd yn dangos hynny, mae sylwadau aelodau o Blaid Cymru yn y gorffennol yn dangos hynny, sydd ond yn cyfnerthu mai pwer, pwer a dim ond pwer sydd ar yr agenda i Blaid Cymru boed bynnag glwyddau maen't yn ei ddweud wrth y bobol.

Mae Plaid Cymru wedi colli eu cefnogaeth yma yng Ngwynedd sef sedd saff i fod.

Dwi'n datgan fydd Elis Thomas wedi ymddeol cyn etholiad nesaf, gan ei fod yn gwybod os fuasai yn sefyll colli fuasai ei hanes. Tybiwn mai sedd i Lais Gwynedd yn yn Cynulliad fydd Dwyfor-Meirionnydd. Mi fydd Llais hefyd yn ymgeisio yn Arfon hefyd, ac agos fydd y canlynniad yno.

Beth bynnag, hen ddigon o amser i hynny.

Felly mae Plaid Cymru yn hapus gyda unigolion saesneg eu h'iaith yng Nghymru.

Be di hwnna yn yr awyr, MOCHYN PINC ?


Last night I saw a report on the Plaid Cymru conference in Llandudno. I thought he was referring to the Plaid-Labour control of the Assembly when he stated that cuts in public finance was on the horizon here in Wales. What in heaven's name has Plaid done in Cardiff apart from cut, cut and more cuts to public funds in Gwynedd. There is no school in the Assembly, but it employs over 700 members of staff in it's Education Department. Simple sum of 700 x £40,000 (£28M), and this is of course without any relative costs and other expenses for this department.

Something else he said in relation that Plaid Cymru is a party for English speakers in Wales as well. Now this is a new one on me, I nearly chocked on my coffee. Plaid Cymru have absoloutely no interest whatsoever in representing English speaking people in Wales, apart from the fact that by saying so, will give them power in Wales. History of Plaid control here in Gwynedd shows us that, and all that they want is power at any cost whatsoever, whatever lies they want to feed the people of Wales.

Plaid Cymru here in Gwynedd have lost the support of the people. This would have been a safe seat at one time and I can predict that Elis Thomas will retire before the next election as he truly knows, having milked the system for so many years, his days are numbered and he is guaranteed to loose if he ever stands again.

I anticipate that Dwyfor-Meirionnydd will be won by Llais Gwynedd in the Assembly, Llais will also stand in Arfon, and that result will be a close one.

Anyway, there is enough time for that debate.

So Plaid (apparently) is more than happy to represent English speakers in Wales !

What's that in the air ?

A PINK ELEPHANT !

RHYFEDD O FYD - IT'S A SMALL WORLD

Gynharach yn Awst mi roddais stori am Dafydd Iwan yn mynd i'r babell fwyd yn y 'Steddfod a rhywrai yn gofyn iddo ble roedd wedi parcio ac mi gerddodd allan. Am y tro cyntaf ers tua 6 mis, mi es allan i Lanberis efo ffrindiau ac dyma un ohonynt yn dweud wrthyf ei hanes yn y 'Steddfod, yn disgwyl am fwyd mewn pabell ac daeth Dafydd i sefyll tu ol iddynt.

Roedd y grwp hwn wedi cael cyntaf ac yn dathlu ac yn hapus. Un o'r grwp ddywedodd hyn wrth Dafydd Iwan ac iddo wedyn gerdded allan. Ac mi ofynnwyd iddo paham nad oedd yn hoffi Dafydd. Dyma beth ddywedodd.

Roedd blynyddoedd yn ol wedi trefnu cyngerdd i godi arian at fudiadau lleol. Roedd doniau lleol yn cymeryd rhan, ond y prif atynfa oedd Dafydd Iwan. Ar y noson, doedd dim golwg ohonno, ond roedd y capel dan ei sang ac roedd yn rhaid mynd ymlaen. Drwy newid pethau rownd a cael mwy o bobol i ganu, adrodd a ballu daethant at ganol yr ail hanner, ble ddaeth DI gyrraedd yn "pickled". Do fe wnaeth rhywbeth ohonni, ond a oedd hi yn iawn fod cyn gymaint wedi troi i fyny i gael unigolyn oedd wedi meddwi yn gockles i chwarae 4 cord, a mwmblan can neu ddau ?

Roedd un arall o'r grwp yn flin gyda Dafydd hefyd. Roedd ei fab yn ei ugeinia cynnar a'i bartner (sy'n wraig iddo erbyn hyn) wedi cael tir gan unigolyn yn y pentref er mwyn sefydlu eu cartref cyntaf. Roedd y tir tua 4 troedfedd tu allan i'r ffin adeiladu ac roedd y tad wedi bod yn gweld DI ac roedd wedi dweud ei fod yn gefnogol i bobol ifanc gael y cyfle i adeiladu tai. Roedd hefyd wedi gweld nifer fawr o Gynghorwyr Arfon ar y pryd ac roeddynt am ei gefnogi.

Pan ddaeth hi i'r bleidlais ar y noson, aeth Dafydd Iwan yn erbyn y cais ac fel defaid dilynnodd pob un o aelodau Plaid Cymru (fel hyn oedd hi yn digwydd bryd hynny cyn dyfodiad gwrthblaid effeithiol). Nid oedd y tad yn hapus ac fe waeddodd rhywbeth o'r galeri, cyn mynd allan.


Earlier in August i was gifted a story regarding Dafydd Iwan in the Eisteddfod and someone asking him where he had parked his car, and of course he walked out.

Now for the first time in over 6 months, I went out to llanberis with friends over the weekend whereby someone was there at the time.

The group were celebrating coming first and were very happy. The one who asked Dafydd where he had parked was asked Why didn't he like him ? and this is what he said.

Many years ago he had organised a concert to raise some money to local groups in the village. Local talents were taking part, but the main attraction was dafydd iwan and the Chapel was full to capacity.

On the night, there was no sign of Dafydd, but the concert had to go on. By changing the routine and gettoing the local talents to sing more than one song they eventually made it to midway through the second half, where in came Dafydd Iwan sozzled to the eyeballs.

Yes he sang something and played his tradditional 4 chords.

Another member of this group was mot best pleased with dafydd either as many years ago his son and his girfriend (who is now his wife) was gifted land to build their very first home which was about 4 feet outside the boundary.

They had been to see Dafydd Iwan, and many other Councillors to get their support, and this was promised to them. On the night of the planning meeting, Dafydd iwan went against the development and all the other Plaid Councillors like sheep went with him (this was the norm in them days before the introduction of an effective opposition)

As you would expect, the father was not happy and voiced his discontent quite loudly from the public gallery before leaving the meeting.

STORI DDONIOL - FUNNY STORY

Tra yn gweithio ar stondin Llais Gwynedd ddydd Sadwrn, daeth rhywyn roeddwn yn ei adnabod i fewn efo stori i mi.

Roedd yn cael "Beef Dinner" yn un o stondinau mwy mawreddog ar y maes, mewn congl roedd llafnau ifanc hefyd yn cael gwledd a peint, ac yn amlwg yn joio y beint fwy.

Pwy ddaeth i fewn a mynd at ei ffrindiau ond Dafydd (parcio anabl) Iwan.

A dyma sut aeth pethau.


(Dafydd yn dod i fewn a mynd at ei ffrindiau i eistedd, pawb yn siarad ymysg eu gilydd am bethau)

HOGIA: O'i Dafydd ! Lle wyt ti wedi parcio heddiw ?

(Aeth Dafydd Iwan yn goch at ei glustiau, cododd ac aeth allan o'r babell fwyd)

HOGIA : Ie Ie Ie (ac yn chwerthin a gweiddi a clapio)

Nelo ymddiheuro yn y lle cyntaf mae wedi gadael rhywbeth bach fynd yn fawr. Tydi hi ddim rhy hwyr dafydd i ymddiheuro.

Rwan dychmygwch y sin, mae Dafydd yn canu wythnos yma yn y Steddfwd. Os fydd yr hogia hyn yna ac wedi cael mwy o gwrw, Wel fydd yna hwyl os gerddith allan bryd hynny. Ni allaf weld o yn gwneud hynny, mae o yn cael ei dalu wrth gwrs i fod ar y llwyfan.



Whilst working on Llais Gwynedd's stand on Saturday, a couple I know came in and told me this funny story.

They were having a wonderful beef dinner (unless your a veggie of course) in one of the sit down places on the field. In a corner there were some young (ish) lads also enjoying the food but enjoying the beer more.

Who came in but Dafydd (Disabled Parking) Iwan, and went over to sit with some friends.

And this is how things developed.

(Dafydd comes in and sits with his friends, people are talking amongst themselves, just general chit chat)

THE BOYS: O'i Dafydd ! Where have you parked today ?

(Dafydd Iwan went a brighter shade of red, got up and left the tent)

THE BOYS: Yes Yeaah Ha Ha (laughing, shouting and clapping)
Why in heaven's name didn't he apologise at the earliest opportunity , no one knows. But he has allowed a minor issue to become a major problem. It's never too late to say sorry Dafydd.

Now imagine the scene. dafydd is singing sometime this week in the Eisteddfod. If these lads are there, having had more beer and having seen his reaction earlier, imagine what happens when they start to tease him again ?

Will he walk out from the stage if it happens. of course he won't. he's getting paid to sing and stay on the stage.

HYFFORDDIANT I AELODAU / TRAINING FOR MEMBERS

Heddiw dwi a nifer o aelodau eraill yn mynychu hyfforddiant i aelodau sydd yn parhau drwy'r dydd. Mi fyddwn yn parcio yn y Cei (gan fod Maes Parcio y Cyngor yn llawn erbyn 10.00 y bore) ac yn cerdded am rhyw 5 munud (sy'n dda i chi medde nhw) gyfochr a'r castell i Siambr y Cyngor.

Os fuaswn yn Lywydd y Blaid, mi fuaswn yn gofyn i barcio mewn lle anabl, ond tegwch yw tegwch ac mi fydd yn rhaid i mi barcio mewn safle arall a cerdded.

Pwy ddiawl mae pobol yn feddwl ydi nhw pan mae hunan bwysigrwydd yn cymeryd drosodd deddfwriaeth a rheolau gwlad.

Dwi wedi rhoi llun o'r llecyn parcio i fyny, ble roedd Dafydd Iwan wedi parcio sydd yn dangos yn glir ar y wal a'r llawr mai lle parcio i'r anabl ydi'r safle hwn - End of.
Today, myself and a number of members are attending a training day for Councillors which will last all day. I will be parking on the quay (as the council car park will be full by 10.00am) and shall be walking for about 5 minutes (which supposedly is good for you) by the side of the castle to the chamber.

If I were to be the president of Plaid Cymru, I would ask to park in a designated disabled zone and walk.

Who the hell do this kind of people think they are, when their self importance superseeds the law of the country.

I have a picture of the parking spot up where Dafydd iwan had parked and it clearly shows the spot as being for the disabled - The sign on the wall and the markings on the floor I think are a dead giveaway. - End of.
