Euro 2016
Posted: 00:30 Sun 03 Jul 2016
Is anyone here watching the Euros?
Wales are making a valiant effort to stay in Europe, despite their preference in last Thursday's vote. Portugal are waiting for Ronaldo to spring into action but are still clinging on like a grape skin on the side of a lagar. Germany missed their first penalty in a major tournament since 1982 and then went on to miss two more before beating the Italians. Iceland have covered every other country in a cloud of volcanic dust and are surreptitiously making their way to the final.
Possibly the most interesting football tournament I have seen in three decades.
Most of us here should now be learning these words in preparation for the final stages...
Mae hen wlad fy nhadau yn annwyl i mi,
Gwlad beirdd a chantorion, enwogion o fri;
Ei gwrol ryfelwyr, gwladgarwyr tra mad,
Dros ryddid collasant eu gwaed.
Gwlad, gwlad, pleidiol wyf i'm gwlad.
Tra môr yn fur i'r bur hoff bau,
O bydded i'r hen iaith barhau.
