Thank you for the comment below, Sally,

Best wishes

When I became Secretary of the English Language Section of Yr Academi Gymreig in 1968 I was told more or less, `They`ve let you have your corner, but know your place and don`t bother them` - `them` being the Welsh Section, In practice I already knew quite a few of our fellow writers in other contexts, and in 1969 we joined together to organise that year`s Taliesin Congress for all the Celtic nations. One of the highlights of my life came a few years later when at Lampeter Harri Webb gave a (Welsh language) lecture to the Welsh Section at their annual conference, to an audience including Saunders Lewis and Hugh McDiarmid in the front row.
