LLangefni Town Hall.
by: Anonymous

Never!

Please don't even contemplate touching Llangefni Town Hall.

It is the apple of the eye to the town's heart, Please not the town hall. Whatever next? The town clock?

Great rock n' rollers played at the hall, THE BLACK DIAMONDS, Skiffle, Jive, and the girls wore bobbysox and impressive dresses...etc.

REAL 1950's 'Rock Around The Clock' stuff - and our hall had a real clock made of rock!

Please do not tear out my heart and heritage and the clusters of vibrant memorie. It's just too hard to bear.

You could hear the guitars & drums from outside, and envied those with tickets.

Gordon Weare.

Atgofion Cae Sel - Market Day Memories
by: Anonymous

ATGOFION CAE SEL.

Wedi treilio llawer o amser yn cae sel,yn colli ysgol a wastio amser.

Twm Cweiriwr oedd enw y dyn oedd yn torri tylla yn clustia'r anifeiliad. A Gareth Sel oedd enw'r drover arall. 'Roedd yn byw yn y tai cyngor yn Isgraig, Llangefni.




Wil translates:

MARKET DAY MEMORIES

I passed much time indeed in the Cattle Market, missing school and wasting time.

Twm Cweiriwr (Tom the Castrator) was the name of the man who cut holes in the animals’ ears. And Gareth Sel was the name of the other drover. Gareth lived in the council houses in Isgraig.





Is it you Gordon? Cymraeg da unwaith eto.

It seemed as if the whole world smelled of cow poo and every farmer's boots covered in green stuff. Happens to be the colour of cow poo, as experts out there will confirm.

Both Twm and Gareth have gone to their reward. I think Gareth lived in the Council house right next to the Fire Station in Isgraig, Llangefni. His brother is Eifion. Llangefni Town FC's greatest supporter.

Now and again there would be the exchange of the odd ten bob note and off one of the gathered agrarians would disappear into The Dingle for a bit of 'How's your father' - allegedly.
