🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 ST. DAVID'S DAY, 1st MARCH - Celebrating Wales


While I'm working on my next Greek history blog (it is coming, don't worry), and since British history isn't my specialty (yet?), I thought I'd share a few videos about Wales and Saint David, since today is Saint David's Day!

This is just a one-off blog mini-series on Britain's Patron Saints and I'll be back to my regular posts ASAP.

In the meantime, hope you enjoy!

CYMRU AM BYTH!
