ôn' Roberts.

Wedyn roedd gen ti'r holl 'stwff' arall yn mynd mlaen...athrawon chwedlonol, cyfeillion yn mynd a dod, syrthio mewn cariad... Roedd yn gyfnod o brofiadau newydd ac emosiynnau cryf, ac mae'r dyddiau hynny yn selio yn y cof.

O ran yr alawon - wnes i eu cyfansoddi yn ystod 2005 ond dim ond nawr rwyf wedi trafferthu rhoi bywyd newydd iddyn nhw ar y wê. Ces i'r syniad o wneud hynny wrth ddarllen am hanes y gwp "They Might be Giants". Roedd eu syniad o 'Dial a Song' yn galluogi eu cefnogwyr i wrando ar ganeuon newydd ar beiriant ffon yn ddi-dal.

Wnes i recordio nhw yn lolfa'r cartref ym Mhorth Tywyn ar declyn digon syml. Nid yw'r ansawdd yn ardderchog, ac felly nid wyf am godi tâl. Fy ngobaith yw y bydd cerddor gwerin gwell na fi yn pigo'r alawon lan a'u haddasu, eu datblygu, a phwy a wyr, eu recordio'n iawn mewn stiwdio.

Alawon Penweddig

2009-09-23T16:20:00.014+01:00

Erbyn hyn, datblygiad o fflatiau moethus sydd yn gorchuddio hen safle Ysgol Gyfun Penweddig, Aberystwyth.

Ond mae atgofion o ddyddiau ysgol ar yr hen safle wedi sbarduno cyfres o alawon newydd gan y telynor gwerin, Carwyn Fowler.

Mae 'Alawon Penweddig' ar gael ar y we AM DDIM, ac maen nhw'n cynnwys yr alawon canlynol

Five tunes recalling Carwyn's old school days in Penweddig, available for free download (charitable donation welcomed)

1. "Diwrnod Cyntaf": atgof o ddiwrnod cyntaf Carwyn ym Mhenweddig, ym Medi 1986. Carwyn's recollections of his first day at Penweddig, in September 1986.

2. "Y Neuadd": portread o neuadd Penweddig, wedi ei seilio ar yr emyn don 'Monk's Gate' ("A fynno Ddewrder Gwir"), cafodd ei ganu yng ngwasanaethau'r ysgol. A musical portrait of the old school hall, based on Monk's Gate, the tune of John Bunyan's famous hymn 'To be a Pilgrim' - Carwyn's favourite school hymn.

3. "Squares": darlun o gem hynod a chwaraewyd gan fechgyn yr ysgol gyda pel tenis, gyda rheolau (cymleth) y gem yn seiliedig ar linellau dau cwrt tenis. Yn ol Carwyn, dyma fersiwn Penweddig o'r "Eton Wall Game" a homily to a playground game with apparently masonic rules which Carwyn never quite grasped.

4. "Alaw i Dawn": sef alaw o deyrnged i gyfaill dosbarth, Dawn Evans, a bu farw'n sydyn yn 2001. A tribute to the late Dawn Evans, who was a popular classmate.

5. "Hen Safle Penweddig": prif alaw'r casgliad, sydd yn dwyn y cyfan i ben. The main theme of this collection of tunes.

Meddai Carwyn: "Wrth edrych yn ol, roedd fy mlynyddoedd cyntaf ym Mhenweddig yn lliwgar dros ben. Ar y pryd, y prifathro oedd y dihafal Gerald Morgan.

Ym Mhenweddig wnes i ddod yn rhugl yn y Gymraeg (cafodd Carwyn ei magu yng Gaerlyr fel plentyn).

Yno hefyd wnes i cyfarwyddo gyda cherddoriaeth Cymraeg. 'Roedd y lle'n bwrlwm o gerddorion hyderus fel Rhodri Davies (telyn ac offer taro), y brodyr Daniel a Tomos Williams, (sax a trwmped) Daniel 'Fflos' Lawrence (Gitar), Lefi Gruffudd (Y Lolfa - gitar fas) a Gareth 'Tromb ôn' Roberts.

Wedyn roedd gen ti'r holl 'stwff' arall yn mynd mlaen...athrawon chwedlonol, cyfeillion yn mynd a dod, syrthio mewn cariad... Roedd yn gyfnod o brofiadau newydd ac emosiynnau cryf, ac mae'r dyddiau hynny yn selio yn y cof.

O ran yr alawon - wnes i eu cyfansoddi yn ystod 2005 ond dim ond nawr rwyf wedi trafferthu rhoi bywyd newydd iddyn nhw ar y wê. Ces i'r syniad o wneud hynny wrth ddarllen am hanes y gwp "They Might be Giants". Roedd eu syniad o 'Dial a Song' yn galluogi eu cefnogwyr i wrando ar ganeuon newydd ar beiriant ffon yn ddi-dal.

Wnes i recordio nhw yn lolfa'r cartref ym Mhorth Tywyn ar declyn digon syml. Nid yw'r ansawdd yn ardderchog, ac felly nid wyf am godi tâl. Fy ngobaith yw y bydd cerddor gwerin gwell na fi yn pigo'r alawon lan a'u haddasu, eu datblygu, a phwy a wyr, eu recordio'n iawn mewn stiwdio.

"Er nad wyf yn codi tâl, rwyf yn gwahodd pobl sydd am lawrlwytho'r alawon, i wneud cyfraniad tuag at Gronfa Leukaemia Tomos Owen." (Mae Carwyn yn rhedeg Marathon Eryri ar Hydref 24 tuag at yr achos er cof am un arall o'i hen gyfeillion o Benweddig).

"Pink Kettle was founded by Ursula Stevens following her return to her home town of Carlisle. Ursh is a busy mum of two little cherubs and appreciates that life today places time constraints on everyone regardless of their situation. It is her aim to make shopping for gifts a more pleasurable experience from the comfort of your own home.

People today are becoming more aware of Fair Trade and environmentally friendly products. We are constantly inundated with a barrage of plastic and mass -produced items. The media is keen to draw our attention to the plight of child labour in order to fulfil our desire for cheap high street goods.

Here at Pink Kettle we are trying to steer away from this and so our ethos is to source Fair Trade, organic and other goods made from sustainable sources. You won't find plastic toys on our site and we endeavour to maintain our promise to you the customer. It is up to us to all to make a difference and to help protect people in the developing world from becoming a slave to our western needs.

As a sponsor of a child in Malawi, Ursh will donate a percentage of her profits to Plan International and other charities on an annual basis.

Pink Kettle wishes you a happy shopping experience!!" www.pinkkettle.com

£1000!!!!!

2008-12-24T01:56:00.006Z

After 6 weeks of frenetic campaigning, I was absolutely delighted to hit the £1000 mark in my fundraising just before the Christmas break.

This means that the bulk of the mandatory £1700 target for the Parkinson's Disease Society has been met, which means I can worry slightly less about fundraising in the New Year, and dedicate more time to training for the London Marathon in April.

In the meantime, I'm going to take a snooze from the campaigning over the holidays - though beware anyone in Aberystwyth because I may collar you for sponsorship if I see you around town!

Wedi 6 wythnos o ymgyrchu caled, roeddwn yn hynod o falch i gyrraedd y nod o £1000 erbyn y Nadolig. mae hyn yn golygu bod y rhan fwyaf o'r £1700 sydd yn ofynol ar gyfer y PDS wedi ei codi. Gallaf becso ychydig yn llai am godi arian, a meddwl tipyn yn fwy am hyfforddi ar gyfer Marathon Llundain ym mis Ebrill.

Yn y cyfamser, rwyf am gymryd toriad o'r ymgyrchu dros y gwyliau. Ond gwyliwch unrhywun yn ardal Aberystwyth. Byddaf yn eich siarsio am nawdd os gwelaf chi o gwmpas y dref!

A special thanks to all of my friends who have donated so far, and thank you to the following business sponsors and supporters:

Diolch am galw heibio! Mae'r ymgyrch codi arian yn dechrau codi stêm, ac rwyf wedi codi bron i 40% o'r swm sydd angen er mwyn i mi gystadlu ym Marathon Llundain 2009 dros Gymdeithas Clefyd Parkinson's. Gellid fy noddi ar wefan www.justgiving.com/carwyn. Diolch am eich gefnogaeth!

Byddaf yn dechrau hyfforddi go iawn yn yr wythnos yn cychwyn Ionawr 5ed. Fel mae'n digwydd, byddaf yn Llundain yr wythnos hwnnw felly bydd yn cyfle i hyfforddi ar rhannau o gwrs y Marathon go-iawn.

Byddaf yn diweddaru fy newyddion yma. Yn y cyfamser - cymerwch eiliad i edrych ar fy noddwyr busnes - yr wyf yn ddiolchgar iawn iddynt.

Thanks for popping over! The fundraising campaign is gathering momentum, and I have raised around 40% of the total that I need in order to compete in the 2009 London Marathon on behalf of the Parkinson's Disease Society. You may sponsor me at www.justgiving.com/carwyn. Thank you for your support!

I will begin my training schedule "proper" on the week commencing January 5th. As it happens, I shall be in London that week, so I will have the chance to train on parts of the official Marathon course.

I shall update news on this website. In the meantime, why not spend a minute to check out my business supporters, to whom I am very grateful.
