Sioe oleuni ysbrydoledig ~ An inspiring sight show

“Now Light, where it exists, can exert an action, and, in certain circumstances, does exert one sufficient to cause changes in material bodies. Suppose, then, such an action could be exerted on the paper; and suppose the paper could be visibly changed by it. In that case surely some effect must result having a general resemblance to the cause which produced it: so that the variegated scene of light and shade might leave its image or impression behind, stronger or weaker on different parts of the paper according to the strength or weakness of the light which had acted there.”
― William Henry Fox Talbot

Dim ond taith cerdded fyr heddiw - i'r eglwys leol - Eglwys Santes Fair Magdalen.  Ynyr hen eglwys mae gwydr lliw godidog yn darparu sioe oleuni ysbrydoledig. Yn wal yr eglwys yw deial haul fertigol lle roedd lle gallai'r offeiriad yn rhoi ffon mewn twll ac roedd pobol yn gallu darllen amser y gwasanaeth nesa. Yn anffodus dydy'r eglwys ddim yn cael ei defnyddio yn aml  y dyddiau hyn. Rydw i'n gobeithio bydd y gymuned yn gallu ei gadw ac yn edrych ar ei hôl hi.

Ar ôl ein taith allan roedd hi'n amser pacio a mynd. Gyrrodd Thrin-lé ni i Westbury i dal y trên. Roedd e'n arbed i ni ddechrau yn Frome ac yn newid yn Westbury, felly yn lle cawson ni’r trên yn syth i Gaerdydd.

Mae e wedi bod fel gwyliau byr ac rydyn ni'n gobeithio mynd i ymweld â Thrin-lé yng Ngwlad yr Haf eto - gallai fod yn ddigwyddiad blynyddol.

Just a short walk today - to the local church - St Mary Magdalene Church. In the old church magnificent stained glass provides an inspiring light show. In the wall of the church is a vertical sundial where the priest could put a stick in a hole and people could read the time of the next service. Unfortunately the church is not often used these days. I hope the community can keep it and look after it.

After our trip out it was time to pack up and go. Thrin-lé drove us to Westbury to catch the train. It saved us starting at Frome and changing at Westbury, so instead we got the train straight to Cardiff.

It's been like a short holiday and we hope to visit Trin-lé in Somerset again - it could be an annual event.
