What an astounding, weird and terrifying planet. Rwyf wedi fy nghyfareddu ac wedi fy arswydo gan Venus yn yr un modd.

Blwyddyn newydd dda! Ffliw arna i, ac yn ôl yn y gwaith. Ond dyma luniau o’r Fenni y nadolig yma. A merry Christmas and a happy new year to you all.

Bore da pawb! Cennin Pedr cyntaf y gwanwyn, yma yn y Fenni. Trying not to think about why they’re up so early, but maen nhw’n hyfryd i gweld ar y ci am dro!

Nice trip down to That London for some light work. And even better to be back in Y Fenni by teatime. Diwrnod hwyliog ym mhrifddinas Lloegr. Ac yn hapus i fod yn ôl yng Nghymru gyda'r cyfnos.

Atgofion o'r gwanwyn am ddiwrnod llwyd. Dyma flodyn cardŵn yn yr Ardd Fotaneg Genedlaethol.
Today, a cardoon from the National Botanic Garden of Wales. It’s a fabulous place and well worth a visit - though perhaps wait for the spring if you want bright flowers!

Y tawelwch cyn yr ystorm. While we wait for storm Brannah to roll in, here’s Llyn Clywedog under a dramatic sky. Fy hoff llwybr i Machynlleth.

Bydd 2026 yn flwyddyn ddiddorol iawn. People are surprised when I make similar predictions at work in London, and I have to explain at length that Wales isn’t Scotland.

Could the right win in Wales?
Jonathan Edwards In my previous life I used to hate opinion polls. Don’t get me wrong – I was obsessed with all sorts of data, be it opinion polling, focus groups or voter identification work. It was ...

Ydw i'n anghywir i gymryd pleser yn y ffaith fy mod newydd ofyn i fenyw sy'n taenu ei holl fagiau dros y sedd wrth ei hymyl i'w symud er mwyn i mi gael eistedd i lawr?

Rwy'n drist iawn i weld y llifogydd heddiw, but it shouldn’t surprise us when this year was the warmest on record. Warm air carries more water, byddwn yn gweld mwy o hyn (trist dweud).

Mae'r golygfeydd yn ysblennydd! I vividly remember the terrifying scree walk my father took me on up Cadair Idris.
Today’s Daily #Wales features the wide open spaces of the mountains (and not the closed space of A&E from yesterday 👍)
From a few years ago, and looking towards Cadair Idris from Abermaw / Barmouth

And a shout out to Bookish yn Y Fenni. Siop ffantastig.
Please, if you are able, support Independent bookshops.
They are the literary & social hubs of our high streets and communities.
Without their continued support, we simply wouldn't be around to publish .
Thank you.

Diwrnod da yn Birmingham heno yng nghwmni fy chwaer. Camlesi, eglwys gadeiriol Sant Chad (gyda'i greiriau) a phobl wych. Love it. I used to come here regularly when I was young and it’s still a lovely city.

I have all the love in the world for @ohgodwhatnow.bsky.social but if I’m honest, this pod drop is the one I anticipate the most these days. Every episode a delight.
Latest podcast is out where we talk about what Reform mean for Wales.
Includes my interview with Nigel Farage.

@willhaycardiff.bsky.social welcome to the not-dark-side! Seeing as you haven't plugged your podcast on here yet, I thought I would! Can I suggest a north Wales-focussed ep, eg Betsi, alienation from Cardiff, etc

Dw i’n mwynhau defniddio Bluesky a pha mor aml mae’r Gymraeg yn ymddangos yn fy mhorth. Dwysgwr ydw i (menidiad 2) ond mae’r naws yn wych! Diolch i’r holl siaradwyr cymraeg.
