Full Time Wales 18 - Ireland 27
Sadly not a win for Wales today but, a hell of a difference from Wales. Admittedly "1 swallow does not a summer make", but, great to see Wales play so well. Looking forward to Wales v Scotland in 2 weeks time.
COME ON WALES. DEWCH MLAN CYMRU.

Half time: Wales 13 - Ireland 10
Pleasantly surprised at how close the game is and with how Wales have played.
Hope they can keep it up in the second half.

Today's daily post by the BBC Archive YouTube channel is an episode of BBC Wales's Week In Week Out looking at the Millennium Bug back in 1997. It's intriguing to be reminded how some people thought what would possibly happen as computers ticked over to 2000. - youtu.be/n0O4CKaB4ls?...

Happy Saint Dwynwen's Day.
Dydd Santes Dwynwen Hapus.
Hopefully none of you have forgotten and are now rushing to get something for your loved one.
For those wondering, Saint Dwynwen's day is the Welsh equivalent of Saint Valentine's day. I've no idea who was first.

I'm not smallest or lightest of fellows but, some of the gusts this morning are that strong that I genuinely thought wind was going to actually blow me over. As someone who grew up on side of mountain, I'm not sort to over exaggerate weather. Currently an Amber warning. Take care

Yet another thing to make me feel old. 6 of the radio djs doing weekdays on the new BBC Radio 2 weekday timetable/listings, I used to listen to on BBC Radio 1 when I was a kid.
Not forgetting Mark Radcliffe, Zoe Ball, Dave Pearce and Gary Davies who also do shows in other slots on BBC Radio 2.
