Bachgen lleol yw Deiniol a fagwyd yn New Inn, Pencader, mynychodd Ysgol Gynradd New Inn, Ysgol Uwchradd Dyffryn Teifi a Choleg Cerdd a Drama Caerdydd.

Cafwyd straeon diddorol ganddo am ei fywyd gwaith amrywiol yng Nghaerdydd, Llundain ac Efrog Newydd. Canwyd carolau Nadolig i orffen y noson. Diolchwyd i Deiniol a’i fam Dawn am chwarae’r allweddellau ac i’r Porth am y cinio blasus gan Bronwen Jones ein islywydd.

Yn Ionawr dymunodd ein llywydd Rhiannon Ainsworth, flwyddyn newydd dda i bawb. Cwis wedi ei threfnu gan Wendy Davies, un o’r aelodau. Mae hi’n gwis feistres benigamp a chawsom noson arall yn llawn hwyl a sbri. Diolchwyd iddi gan Ann Phillips. Ym mis Chwefror ein g?r gwadd oedd Ffred Ffransis, o’r Rhyl yn wreiddiol. Magwyd ef ar aelwyd ddi-gymraeg. Aeth i brifysgol Aberystwyth lle cwrddodd â Meinir Evans. Mae Ffred yn aelod blaenllaw o Gymdeithas yr Iaith ac wedi gweithredu ei egwyddorion trwy sefydlu busnes llewyrchus yn Llanfihangel-ar-arth sef cwmni Cadwyn.

Mae ‘r cwmni yn seiliedig ar Fasnach Deg sy ‘n golygu bod y gweithwyr o wledydd Affrica yn cael pris teilwng am eu cynnyrch. Mae hyn yn eu cynorthwyo i ddatblygu a gwella eu bywyd. Diolchwyd iddo gan Wenna Bevan Jones.

PRESIDENT Anne Morgan opened the meeting at the Tysul Hall on Thursday, 4 April, welcoming members then commencing with reading of the minutes of the last meeting and usual business.

Following on, members were treated to a talk and demonstrations, by Glyn Jones, on what to do in the event of a medical emergency with the chance to practice some CPR and using a ‘defibrillator’.

With more communities around the country having public ‘defibrillators’, it is important that they are easily available and members of the public are not afraid to use them. The machines are easy to use giving step-by-step instructions during use. Training in helping with medical emergencies is always encouraged and of course, can save lives.

A vote of thanks was given by Lone Howells.

The competition for the night was - ’An Old Fashioned Remedy’, winners were: 1, Carol; 2, Anita; 3, Sheila.

Members were reminded of the visit to Caws Teifi Cheese on Friday, 26 April at 3pm.

The next coffee morning will be held in National Woollen Mill, Drefach Felindre on Thursday, 18 April at 10.30am, where various traditional Welsh costumes will be on display.

There won’t be a meeting in May, replaced instead by a trip to Cardiff on Thursday, 2 May to see Calendar Girls The Musical at the Wales Millennium Centre.
