Phew, you Druidion make it mazeworthy to register with you. I’ve tried before to join, but got lost in Spiral Castle. So, I was brought up in Froncysyllte, and am particularly impressed with your research at the Carreg y Big Pontfadog, Dinas Bran and Moel Ty Uchaf sites, which I well remember from my hiking days. The vigils of Gwas? Sorry I don’t want to go back into Caer Sidi to check your names, but much respect (I know there are two HDs who explore Cymru Gogledd on motorbikes, although one had passed away. Are you based in Cheshire?) and the communication with the mountain itself of Dinas Bran, where I went to school. I write poetry about these places. Cofion gorau, Dachlan
