    There are few amongst us who can do the trail in one go, so I am focusing on providing info for four Glyndwr trail walks with information not only on Hanes Glyndwr but local history along the route of each trail. Very much as I have done on my Ceredded Cymru blog platform:

    Further to the above, we are attempting to organise something which will symbolically link the history of 1400 - 1404 between the Battle of Vyrnwy:

    Sometime early August, I hope to do some research field work foto work on this first trail, report on this will be posted on this blog to aid your walking of this trail and also provide info on local history. Having done this, I doubt then if I can participate in below suggestion, all a matter of cost more than time, all this running about Wales doing research for blogs and initiatives fast empties my small and meager purse.

                                             SUGGESTION:

    This is also intended to be means by which Anti - Windmill Campaign Groups may link up in a joint action being an idea borrowed from the Macpuche Indians of Chile/Patagonia of 'Walking Back Into Their Past' as a means of protest against their lands being exploited and resources being expropriated. If this trail is walked between Machynlleth to Vyrnwy on to Mathrafel with smaller feeder  'token walks' being made groups from Coed Morgannwg and the West to Machynlleth via Hyddgen it would not only be symbolic but could if publicised and promoted World Wide colourfully raise up a lot of attention and interest to the campaign against Tan 8 and struggle against Green Imperialism. Not least be a step towards great national unity and solidarity in campaign against Tan 8 as after all as far as I am concerned this is no NIMBY matter as Cymru/Wales all of it is my Back Yard, full stop. See what Tarian Glyndwr says about this:

I am informing various Anti - Tan 8 Campaign Groups re above suggestion in hope it will be taken up, if not I hope individuals or Community groups will make the effort to go on this walk in Mis Medi to visit Vyrnwy and not least Mathrafel and possibly Meifod close by.

CELEBRATING HANES GLYNDWR MIS MEDI GLYNDWR 2011 - As An Anti Tan 8 Campaign Initiative.


Associated with the above walk back into the past, I am suggesting to Pobl Glyndwr in North East Wales to this year mark 16 Medi 1400 'Dydd Glyndwr' by carrying out an Anti - Windmill Campaign Raiding Motorcade of Windmill Plantations in this region as Glyndwr's great raid from Glyndyfrwdwy, Corwen to Ruthin around to the borders to Vyrnwy as noted above re the 'Battle of Vyrnwy 24 September 1400. The 2011 raid will begin at Caerdrewyn on 17 Medi, thus allowing patriots the night before to celebrate 16 Medi 'Dydd Glyndwr' locally, and then thru the week up to 24th continue through the week carrying the Anti Tan 8 Message around the towns of the North East associated with raid of Mis Medi 1400. This does not needs be a one off Motorcad but more the nearest anti - Tan 8 Groups carrying out activities in towns associated with Glyndwr's great raid of Mis Medi 1400. Further Information on this will be placed on Galwad Glyndwr blog in due course:
