  2. STAFELL TRECH GWLAD NAG ARGLWYDD an unofficial name I have given to the annexe type room at back of the down stairs bar of Weatherspoons. The Whole Pub is full of great stuff as an exhibition on Merthyr History, one of the best I have seen in Weatherspoon Pubs which is why where ever I am I head for their Pubs. Done so far London, Brokley, Ashford, Folkeston, Tredeagar and Swansea and Cardiff. Photos below of Exhibition in this Annexe.






  1. I really reccomend the Welsh Faggot Special, really good, great loved it.


    Too bad the meal was so good or I might have thrown it up in the below:


    What is it about the Welsh, this monstrosity is close by the Town Library, just in case your eager to see it:


    There are loads of  similar English Royalist memorials and plaques all over our land as examples of Victorian Welsh Forelock Tugging Grovelling. I wonder, if we will ever see the day when they are done away with as in many Free post Colonial Countries do with them, not least in the Baltic States.
