A oes heddwch? Is there peace? The National Eisteddfod of Wales continued throughout the war, though with some changes of venue. In June 1940 the Gorsedd held this ceremony at Colwyn Bay to announce the following year's Eisteddfod. But due to the risk of air attacks the eisteddfod itself was held at nearby Old Colwyn.

Makes me think of the kids in Bedknobs and Broomsticks. It's amazing to me how total strangers opened their homes to board children. It's too bad that it usually takes a crisis to get us to come together~
