I’m a Welsh German… or maybe a German Welshman. I write books. I sometimes win prizes for writing books. I bake. I knit. I’ve been married to my husband for 18 years - we’ve been together 38! Cymro oddi cartref.

After almost 60 years of knitting I still can’t get on with circular needles!

Phyllis Lyon’s sister was married to the uncle of a friend - so I got to wash the windows in their Berkeley Hills home for three years between 1981 and 1984… I met Phyllis just once.

I wonder if any of mine have been removed? How might I find out?

We were in Australia for a month and we’re very disappointed that there were so few clothing optional beaches… I enjoy your photos.

I’ve been doing this forever - and then you don’t have ends to weave in… go well with best wishes from Germany.

If you’ve knitted a couple of inches with double yarn you can just snip off the ends… I’ve used this method for half a century and the joint has never come undone…

They are not haters… but as a lefty I can’t assess how good or logical they are. Mr Merz has a track record of putting his foot in his mouth… he was sacked by Angela Merkel many moons ago…

No, they’re not conservative Christians in the American sense… they are a Conservative Party with Christian roots…
