Some months back I issued a set of papers calling for the establishment asap of a body such as the below, these papers thankfully have fallen into the right hands as in reviewing below what can I say other than excellent! Well done to whomsoever made good advance on my proposals in such a constructive way, I really cannot be critical only offer some advice as please put names up front of 'Initiative Initiators' who might also be detirmined as 'Implementers', more on this below. Suffice to say here, this is the most important body Patriots could support at the moment, so please do asap! Forget the politics and politicians, they are going around and around in directionless circles and, will end up with no good long term solution!

However, some advice:
.
* Keep well away from the ''Sixties Stuff'' and any 'retro romance' with the FWA and Remembering Abergele, that is not so it's associated with this important endeavour etc, not least connections with radical militant nationalism and, so called ''Welsh Republicanism''. Why? well if you want to get grants and broad support from a wider part of society, you must accept that you must, not be 'squeeky clean' but at least not in the 'Danger Zone'. This is why I set fourth to distance myself from my own proposals and quite happy to let others take aboard as long as they handled such sensibly. Thus far those responsible for doing so are, keeping it that way and, I hope they will continue to do so for above and other reasons that will become obvious to those involved who are to be Initiators and projects 'Initiators' aka 'Implementors'.
.
* This does not mean you have to be pathetically grovellers to the establishment, in papers I sent out, I made point that much of what such a Society does is to undermine the Welsh 'forelock tugging' to English Royalty and English Princes of Wales, not least in 2011, the 100th anniversary of the first Caernarfon Investiture of 1911. But that's all up to those who have to make this new Society work, so I am not being bullish about this! It's up to you as I am gradually moving away from my 'Love Affair' and work for Hanes - Mediaval Wales but do see below re 1911 - 2011 Anniversary mentioned here.
.
* Suggestions as per Society promotion and advance, it maybe a good idea for the new Society to link up with and. invite to annual and regional conferences potential 'Associates' as in main 'observers' but with opportunity to make useful contributions via proposals. 'Associates' as in particular ANTUR LLYS RHOSYR, CYMDEITHAS GWENLLIAN, I'R GAD Welsh Battlefield Society also that other 'Welsh Battlefield Society'. Plus, there must be other 'bodies', not least local who have an interest in all things Welsh Medieval, in such direction personally I feel it could be condusive to success, if 'Implementers' promoted Annual - Quarterly 'Regional Conferences & Gatherings' at ABERFFRAW, MATHRAFEL, DINEFWR and DINAS POWYS - the four Royal Seats of Wales.
.
In mind also, to set up in these four locations four major Initiateves: Antur Llys Rhosyr takes care of Aberffraw also, needed would be an Antur Mathrafel, Antur Dinefwr and Antur Dinas Powys. These locations at time of their 'Regional Conferences' could hold at least four annual Medieval Wales events, see Info below. May I suggest, that it could be useful to nationally announce existence of this new society in a big way and, thus help to 'Fast Track' advance a signifigant, symbolic and stunning event.
