I have been a member of the Trelawnyd Community Association for a few years now, but my involvement has been limited due to the fact I have worked full time and worked shifts.
Going part time, was originally designed for me to start my counselling course, but just as nature abhors a vacuum a few village bases projects need a pair of hands and I’ve been conscripted back into the fold so to speak.
This lunchtime I went to a TCA meeting and said my piece on a pressing matter.
It’s a nice group all told , perhaps a good dozen and a half people with the community’s well being at heart.
I’m working on a web page relating to the historic well that used to stand on Well Street ( duh) and have taken photographs today of the newly refurbished pond which lies next to its site.
The velvet Voiced Linda and I are helping to organise an open evening for the pond so that the village can learn of its existence and and perhaps help contribute to its aquatic planting costs
Ma Manly was at the meeting, she has glorious long white hair which twirled around her head in the breeze like a demon as we talked in the street. She is another of the amateur village historians, much more talented than I in unearthing information of note about Trelawnyd . I asked if she would contribute to my history blog and offered her free rein to the website to do so.
Her daughter , Kelda runs the folk nights in the Hall.
I photographed the pond and the well then went to Linda & Nick’s cottage for coffee and scones ( with jam) with some of the others where we gossiped for a while.
This part of community life is nice .
It’s not always so peaceful , as any minor village politician will tell you,
But it’s home .
