Everyone still welcome and the AGM on Sunday 10th at 11am followed by a Bring and Share lunch is still as planned.]]>Sun, 22 Nov 2009 15:35:39 -0800http://www.swcwt.org/1/post/2009/11/taliesin-agm-and-maintenance-weekend.htmlThe AGM will be on Sunday 10th January at 11am and all are welcome, followed by a bring and share lunch.

Also the weekend of the 9th and 10th of January will be a maintenance weekend at Taliesin. We will be tackling various winter jobs such as removing redundant tree protectors, demolishing knotweed, and maintaining and developing paths.
You are welcome for any or all of this weekend - don't worry if you are new to it - there will be plenty of different things to do and plenty of people to show you the ropes.

You can see them in our Gallery for Autumn 2009.
The weather was very kind (what -  no floods or other apocalypses??) and the usual blend of peace and activity prevailed. Some amazing objects were created under the watchful eyes of our resident tutors  - one of the nicest things about a gathering weekend at Taliesin is that afterwards there always seems to be more beautiful things in the world than there were before....]]>Fri, 02 Oct 2009 13:51:04 -0800http://www.swcwt.org/1/post/2009/10/kayak-building-pictures-october-2008.htmlPictures of the kayak building course have now been added to the Autumn 2008 Gallery page]]>Mon, 21 Sep 2009 15:42:53 -0800http://www.swcwt.org/1/post/2009/09/taliesin-meets-geograph.htmlThe Geograph Project aims to collect representative images form each square kilometre of the British Isles. Ed has been sharing some pictures of Taliesin at NX7955.

He also notes with pleasure that the Scots pines (and here) at the top of the recently felled Potterland Hill (overlooking Taliesin from the East) have been left standing and new regeneration growth is emerging. 

The Geograph also includes a fabulous shot of the new pond loop which really sets it in the landscape.

This would be a good shot to repeat regularly and watch the ponds merge into the environment.]]>Sat, 12 Sep 2009 15:24:04 -0800http://www.swcwt.org/1/post/2009/09/remembering-the-fist-taliesin-festival.htmlJust to remind everyone who was a part of Taliesin in 1997, or who are curious newer-comers, what things looked like in those 'far off days' there is a link to Eds blog about the first festival added to the Archive gallery page....]]>Sun, 23 Aug 2009 07:57:48 -0800http://www.swcwt.org/1/post/2009/08/and-still-it-rained.htmlEd has taken some photos of the new watercourse and pond in the rain over the last couple of days.
