Thank you, Eleanor for quite an interesting look at the Welsh countryside for this Louisiana girl lol. There is so much lush greenery, even for late summer.

Hi Denise, I'm glad you enjoyed it 😊

Would love to see a couple of these videos along with all your wonderful sewing and quilting videos.❤

You always make the most beautiful and deep videos. This one is another one that really gets to me. I am half Welsh and I need to go there in the next year and see Wales. Thank you so much for these beautiful videos. They are very gorgeous and they have depth to them even something so simple as just looking at a museum.

Always enjoy your videos. Glad you had a day out with family and friends. That's awesome that it's free, that is a rarity!

[@eleanorbirchellhughes]

Thank you Amy, yes I don't know how many years it's been since we last did something like this, it was so much fun!

[@kayradwanski1689]

Here in the US we still had the Inkwell desks in the 70s as well. I was thinking about it the other day and the type that lift with the top up however, they looked a little different than yours but same idea they were left over from the 40s and 50s.

Hi Eleanor I loved your video! Funny this popped up after MommaLovesYouGB mentioning she also visited this museum in her Sunday flosstube!! I wish I lived nearer as I'd love to visit. Thank you for the wonderful info and history information you put in your video!! Have a lovely week!! Samantha xx

[@eleanorbirchellhughes]

Thanks for your comment Samantha, also thanks for telling me how it was recommended ☺️

Yes would love more but with lighting maybe thank you

[@eleanorbirchellhughes]

Definitely more lighting required 😌

[@eleanorbirchellhughes]

Aren't we fortunate that our national museums are free to visit? Have you done/are you planning to do an episode from the National Wool Museum in Drefach Felindre? As a former Welsh tutor, I feel impelled to pick you up on a couple of your pronunciations, sorry. The first was Gwalia. You pronounced it 'gwayleer' but the 'a's are short like in Llandeilo or Llangadog. The other was Nantwallter. You pronounced it 'nant Walter' whereas the 'a' and the 'll' of (G)waller should both sound as they do in Llandeilo. Other than that, I really enjoyed the video. Thank you

[@eleanorbirchellhughes]

Thanks for comment, I have thought about the wool museum, possibly in the autumn? As to the Welsh pronunciation I used to say "gwaila" how you said and then a Welsh speaker corrected me! So now I'm super confused 😌 Not an excuse or something I usually make public but I am hard of hearing and dyslexic so you can imagine the fun I have trying to pronounce my ancestral mother tongue 😉
