THE Carmarthenshire National Eisteddfod taking place in Llanelli Festival Fields is fast approaching. We have already passed the '500 days to go' mark and there are now less


than two months until the Proclamation Ceremony is held at Carmarthen. The competitions and the judges have now all been confirmed and the


competitions list is about to go to press. The 2014 competitions volume will be available to buy from the afternoon of the Proclamation ceremony. Once the competitions list has been published, poets and writers will start


to focus on Carmarthenshire. A number of activities and events are being organised to raise money and awareness for the National Eisteddfod. To find out about organising or attending an activity, visit the Eisteddfod

A new designer floristry business has arrived amongst the bespoke businesses in Newcastle Emlyn’s Sycamore Street. The Flower Rooms owner Sabrina brings with her a long history of experience in the floristry and gift business. She said: “Our largest requests are flowers for weddings, funerals and that special gift that says ‘I love you’ without words. “We offer a bespoke wrapping service, local and national delivery and after hours meetings for


wedding parties and the bereaved are also available upon request.” Sabrina would like to thank Dewis Menter for all their help while setting up The Flower Rooms and for their ongoing support. Also a big thank you goes out to the Carmarthenshire County Council and Carmarthenshire Lottery for the financial support that was given to set up the business.
