Mr James was born in 1809 in Caerphilly town, later moving to Argoed, near Blackwood, and then to Bedwellty parish.

In 1832, one of Mr James' seven children, James James, was born in Bedwellty and the harpist helped his father write the Welsh National Anthem - Hen Wlad Fy Nhadau (Land of My Fathers) - in early1856.

One of my sons is in hospital at the moment so I'm feeling sad. It's so strange not having him near me and I pray he'll be well, and home again soon.

GADZOOKS!

Cool!

I almost walked past this beautiful hindu or buddist statue that seems to be saying "Safety first".

One thing about this two week trip:

Digital SLRs have come of age.

All 3 cameras performed without a hitch.

I did not take along a laptop to download the images every night.

Instead I used a 16GB memory card in each camera and carried one spare battery for each.

Simple.

I dislike using computers when on vacation and am quite happy with the state of things now.

Oh yeah, all three cameras passed through several scanners without a hitch.

A Very Strange Statue

In 2014 there was much comment about an attempt to place a 13 foot-high statue called "The Don" outside an office development at 132-134 Hills Road.

Cambridge City Council’s public art officer described it as “possibly the poorest quality work” that has ever been submitted to them.

The sculptor, Pablo Atchugarry, disowned the piece claiming he had never seen it before.

Lots of comments in the media (Google “Cambridge Don Statue”).

Nothing more seems to have happened for several years until this statue appeared at 132-134 Hills Road.

It was not in place in April 2019 when the Google Street View vehicle went by, but it was there in September 2020.

It has a plaque in front saying

"HRH Prince Philip

Duke of Edinburgh

Chancellor

University of Cambridge

1977 -2011"

However I can find absolutely nothing about it.

I mailed the property company who own the site (Unex Holdings) asking for information but got no reply

Comparing this statue with the pictures of "The Don" suggests that this is a modified version with some gold paint.

Had to go here for this shot! It was hot and cloudy, almost like Texas weather. But the Lady isn't in Texas :)
