06/10/13 08:04:56PM, by Robert W. Allen

Posted today at Metafilter: The Welsh Space Campaign. The suit is made of the fabric woven in the last remaining wool mills in Wales. The astronaut boots are traditional Welsh clogs crafted by a traditional clog maker. The whole pressure system that will enable the astronaut to sustain life in outer space was built by a Welsh plumber .

What does it mean to be Welsh?

Top 50 Welsh Songs Ever?

08/13/12 04:13:26PM, by Gaynor Madoc Leonard

The list includes Mae Rhywyn Wedi Dwyn Fy Nhrwyn by Y Tebot Piws (on everyone's list I think) and, of course, the great Hymns & Arias.

And you can't say fairer than that.

However, thatmindset tends to disregard any particular Welsh issues that influence thecontent of historical documents. From years of helping people trace theirancestry...
