To mark 15 March Hungarian 1848 National Revolution Day, I have placed a photographic tribute in THE WELSH PATRIOT http://welshpatriot.blogspot.com . In this post I continue my tribute to Hungary with information on Budapest's National Heroes Square Memorial with particular reference to the memorial representation of Arpad and his chiefs who were the Magyar founding fathers of Hungary, click into following link: Árpád - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia In 894, Árpád and Kurszán negotiated together with the representatives of the Byzantine emperor, Leo VI the Wise the terms under which the confederation of ...en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Árpád - 29k - Cached - Similar pages

The story of Arpad and his chiefs reminds me of the arrival of Cunedda and his sons leading Y Cymry from the British North into what is now Cymru/Wales today. Would this not be good inspiration to have set up a Cunedda monument much as the Hungarian tribute to Arpad, but where would we site such a monument? Check out the history via link here>>>Cunedda - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The name Cunedda derives from the Brythonic word counodagos, meaning 'good lord'.

I am sure you want forget but Wales is playing France at the WMC today, best wishes and despite all that I said in previous post yesterday, I Wales wins. I have recently been researching material for a new post to my AWNM&S Hist Archive blog http://awnms.blogspot.com and whilst doing so, upon reading my To Dream of Freedom pp 168-169. I was reminded that it was on day ( 4th March 1968) of a Wales v France match that MAC made a bomb attack on the Llanishen Tax Office. Bit of a Grand Slam for the Underground Welsh Resistance Freedom Fighters, me thinks! Though some might not agree, most did as after all it was a Tax Office and many expressed the sentiment ''Thank God they got it right this time''. Naughty!!!
