Eisteddfod Genedlaethol Y Bala, 3 August 09.
Arrive at The Maes with thousands of others. What a wonderful setting.
The 'pink castle' as my daughter named it looked superb.

After the long walk across the fields to the entrance, I was wondering if I had done the right thing, wearing my armour and carrying a sword, shield and helmet, when Frances Donovan from ITV1 tapped me on the shoulder and asked if they could film an interview with me! We met up again after watching the druids marching across the Maes. Meilir and I were filmed for close ups, Meilir looking mean and moody, me staring into space. I was 'miked up' and talked to some children from Treuddyn about my armour and the contents of my pouch. This was followed by a much needed cup of coffee, (thanks Frances) and a chat while leaning on a gate. She was fascinated by what I was doing and why.
