Personal gain and self promotion...

Prynhawn da i chi, siwd mae pawb? OK, here goes: Blog #1.

I still can't quite believe that the Centre's allowing me to contribute to this new blog... do they not realise that I will use it solely for personal gain and self promotion?

Where to begin? At least I've plenty to talk about over the next few weeks, starting with my trip to Brittany with Fiona {our Artistic Director} to the Festival Interceltique Lorient tomorrow. It's my first time at the festival which I'm really excited about, people seem to love it there although this weekend's weather isn't looking too special, gutted... Tres triste.

Then I'm off to Edinburgh which will feel slightly different this year compared to previous visits to the Fringe Festival as I'll be working as a Total Theatre Award assessor {which I'm a little nervous about}, but more about that nearer the time.

Oh and one last thing, I found out yesterday that I've been accepted onto the Cultural Leadership Programme's Leadership Unleashed 2010 programme. This means I will now "become part of a unique leadership development network spanning the cultural sector, creative industries and commerce". OK, I'm not entirely sure what this will involve yet either, but I'm sure it'll be interesting finding out.

How was that? OK?
Iawn, hwyl am y tro. Gareth

  1. The irony of you visiting the Fringe Festival never ceases to amuse.

  2. LOL. You deserve to brag about getting accepted into Leadership Unleashed. Although I'm a bit fearful of what Gareth 'Unleashed' may mean! Thanks for the linklove - that's a brand new word I learnt from the master of social networking himself, DK.
