So, after one of the most amazing experiences of my professional life, a cancelled flight, a night in Bariloche and a 36 hour return journey, we have returned to Mumbles. The sounds of the Wrasaw Concerto ringing out from the Castle were surreal indeed...Diolch yn fawr iawn i'r Wladfa. Taith Arbennig.

Regret shall be the footprint that I leave behind
Only for those who know how to read the trail
Shall be able 2 follow in my…

Artist: I wanted to...
Matt: What's stopping you
Artist: Well I wasn't sure if I was the right type of person...
Matt: What's the right type of person?

So me and a group of merry poets all took a trip up to Landed festival yesterday to put on a NTWTeam Word4Word event. It started by all getting on a very pimping mini bus and I mean pimping, leather seats, blue led’s and all that jazz. as you can imagine we were all feeling very nervous as us poets do before a gig but fortunately Mr Mark Dorey was hot on it and brought us all some shandy to calm our nerves (wild I know, sugar free, 0.5% shandy). …

Hearing people saying 'life should have more of this' is possibly one of the loveliest things I have heard as a director. Hearing the giggles of small children as they race the cast to the next location and the belly…
