I am still new to SCA, if you discount my old membership from 30 years past.  Linda/Luisa PS And in the past SCA, people were not such great scholars, as much as most are now.  I am in awe.

At present I know little about old Welsh books, but I hope my friend Nancy Bond (who wrote A String in thr Harp) can give me some advice--she attended library school in Wales in the late 60's or early 70's, I think.  later, Linda/Luisa  PS My own SCA studies will be in calligraphy and German and French languages, I think.  Plus tutoring David/Huw in baking.

> HI, Nicole, Thanks  you so much for the references.  We have a few books about Welsh History and language.  A few years ago we went to Wales for a few days after visiting old friends in the Cotswolds/Coventry parts of England (our kids were in a Boy Scout exchange program in junior high school).  We were prompted to visit Wales by our son and his wife naming their kids Colwynne and Snowdon--they had a sort of honeymoon in Wales  and always had a predilection towards Welsh names.   I wonder how much influence the time spent in the Salzburg, Austria area had on Welsh language, as I noticed some French and German roots when I tried to crack the Welsh code--I didn't get very far.   Loving Salzburg as I do (we vacationed there many times when my husband was in the US military and we lived in Frankfurt am Main, Germany (that was over 40 years ago). I think we discovered former lives in the area, as we are addicted to waltzes, and the city always felt familiar. Anyway, now we are hoping to know more about Wales, brush up on German language and rusty  French, plus my husband hopes to learn how to make so many of the baked goods he loves to eat!  Thanks again, Linda/Luisa
