There are quite a few Welsh posters on the forums but the key is making the Regional sections worthwhile for them to post here. Many businesses aren't localised so might not see the point other than a bit of patriotism.

It would be good if these areas take off so that local information and support is more accessible. A couple more threads might go some way to helping get this section underway.

Good luck all,

Andrew

I've just got back from a weekend in Bridgend to go to my cousin's 90th birthday in Maesycwmmer. Does that count?

Does it help that another of my cousins actually speaks fluent Welsh and used to take part in Eisteddfods?

... and my grandparents used to live in Hengoed/Pengam

... and my son was called Barry John

I'm feeling more Welsh by the minute :D

yes you count. you can take the boy out of wales and all that.

I'm a Welsh-speaking Englishwoman who's lived in North Wales for 8 years... been meaning to post in the Welsh forum but didn't fancy being the first one to do it :)

I'm halfway between Caernarfon and Pwllheli, so if anyone wants an off-site marketing manager in that area I'm your lady :)

Wyn of Aqua Marketing, based in Caernarfon, also uses the forum. And an England-based Welsh friend of mine, Llinos, is a newish member too.

Maybe we'll all start crawling out of the woodwork now, eh? :D

Well ladies and gents, there are a few people here now so here comes some shameless plugging. Part of our business is, despite being nationwide, mostly regional. We have a specialist portable appliance testing section and as most people on here need that, it seems worth mentioning. So when your pat testing is due, give us a call for a price at least, promise to make it good if you mention this forum. Our site for this section is heriskmanagement.com

I will start posting any networking and key regional events on here as i come across them.

Cheers

James

Did someone mention my name?!!!

It's great to see a Welsh section on the forum and I've been meaning to contribute sooner!

I run a small bilingual marketing company in North Wales and have clients in South Wales as well as across the border, so hello to everyone!

I'm a Caaaardiffian - Work from home most of the time (when not on the road selling) although business is based in Nottingham. I for one would like to meet up with other Welsh UKBF members. Both for business and social networking.

Just joined, so thought I'd say hi.

Sorry can't do the welsh talk though!

I hope business is good for you all. The summer looks like it could be a tough one....so if you need anything IT related, think of me and get in touch! :D

Seriously if there is any help or advice I can provide, don't hesitate to drop me a line.

Bonjour/Helo/Siwmai?
i am a Welshman who grew up and lived in the valleys then went to England to steal all their money (and their women!) then ran away to live in France 3 years ago.

Its good to see the lingo being used though my problem even though i am fluent in Welsh keep getting mixed up with French so end up talking a bit of a mixture here - much to the confusion of the French!

if any compatriates fancy some tax and accounts advice I do most of my work via telephone, email and online meetings.

Hello

I get my 3 year residency status next month...! I guess that means I could play for Wales haha!

Moved here and became inspired to start my own bead & jewellery business, absolutely love Wales and the opportunites that it's given me. Plus the beaches, mountains, rugby players! Based just outside of Bridgend with my online retail businesses.

Lovely to meet you all

What a joy!

I have only recently found this fantastic resource and I cant get enough of it!

I am a welsh speaking young businessman from Caerphilly, who loves the idea of networking with other companies from any part of the UK if I'm honest!

I provide a number of services and would be on hand to anyone who needs some support or advice.

Credit Checking
ID Verification
Tracing
Debt Collection
Consumer reports

Basically if you need any background information on a business or individual I can provide it to you.

Just PM me if you need a hand with anything!

Diolch!

Shaun..
