There are several lovely buildings in the Penryn campus. This is a lecture theatre in a chapel with beautiful windows.There was a good group there for an interesting conference about women's history in Cornwall. The women varied from poor widows to rich bankers, from those without education to others highly educated and clever. Some women had hidden political power (influence). Information was hard for the researchers to find, it seems. There is a public census every ten years but a lot of things could happen between censuses. Husbands could go overseas for several years and come back again. Children could be born and die. Fortunes could be made and lost or given away. There was a need to seek in all types of archives. I'd like to write more tomorrow, perhaps. The day finished with some lively songs.

Deg ger rag hedhyw: Ten words for today

adhescans education, learning
bankoresow (f.pl.) bankers < bankores (f) < banker (m)

I am not a fine poetess and my verses are not refined poetry. I would prefer to write songs, but I don't know how to compose the music. I am not a composer. It's hard to get rhymes for some words. Can I remember rhymes? I can't remember exactly. But "amusing" is a rhyme for "exactly" (more or less). "Moth" is another rhyme, but how can I use it? The picture is a peppered moth. Ma whans dhebm a scrifa neppeth didhan...
