Happy New Year

Happy New Year to everyone. Let’s hope that 2022 will be a bit better than the last couple of years and that we continue to stay safe and healthy!!!!

I hope you are continuing to enjoy reading this blog. I certainly enjoy putting it together as I am learning so much about Merthyr’s fascinating history. I would like to thank everyone who has contributed articles over the last year – they have all been fascinating, and I hope that there will be many more contributions this year.

Quite a number of people commented very favourably about the recent article about Christmas Memories. I’m sure there are lots of people out there with fascinating memories of specific things in Merthyr’s past – memories of a certain area, a certain event, a certain organisastion or even a certain person. If you have, please share them….I know everyone would enjoy reading them.

If anyone would like to contribute something to this blog – please get in touch. It doesn’t matter if you are a seasoned historian or a first-timer – if you feel that you have something you would like to share, send me a message via the e-mail address to the right.

Give it a go – I would love to hear from you.

I would also like to thank everyone who has made a donation to help keep the site going – it really does make it so much easier to keep the site up and running. Your generosity is greatly appreciated.
