Fatla geno whei? Fatel ero whei ow kil? Fatel ellen nei bos en yehes da dres oll an leunstroth ma? Fatel ellen nei scodhya dadder a'n corf ha gwitha agan compòster bres?

An liw glas chlorophyll ew liw nebes yeyn ha cosel dh'agan lagajow - ma va ow lehe sqwithter an lagas. Bes da ew gen radn an bobel pònya.

Thera an vacsin dhe radn ahanen, ha ma daffar dhe r'erol rag omassaya.    










How are you? How are you doing? How can we be in good health throughout this lockdown? How can we support physical fitness and maintain our sanity? It's good to walk in the countryside, we should be among trees. Trees give us beauty in spring, shade in summer and, sometimes, food in autumn. The green colour of chlorophyll is a cool colour and restful to our eyes - it reduces eye strain. But some people like to run. That speeds up the heartbeat - and there is less time to look around and observe nature. And COVID-19? We wouldn't want to have that at home. Some of us have had the vaccine, and others have  equipment for self-testing.

De Meurth, pajwora mis Genver Tuesday, 4th January   Nag eus finweth dhe dhrog chons, car dre hevel. O vy moredhek?

Ma hedna ow menya moy liednow ha dilhas rag an jynn-gòlhy avorow. There is no limit to bad luck, so it seems. Am I pessimistic? Mishaps come in threes, but I have had more than three disasters already. What is the problem today? Our daughter is ill and she can't collect her children. I must entertain them. We played hangman many times, and chess and cards. What do sick children like to eat? Perhaps a few grapes. But that was not a very good idea. Eleven o'clock, the lit...

An jynn-gòlhy a lavüryas heb hedhy lies our. There's a proverb in ancient Greek tragedy. Those whom the gods would destroy, they first make mad (deprive them of sanity). Will I lose my right mind soon? What is next? The first boy was sick again half an hour before midnight, and the second boy was sick twelve hours later. Lots of washing. The washing machine worked non-stop for many hours.
