And leaving it unattended like this will mean it will probably fall prey to vandals and thugs. <br /><br />At a time when "living history" is enjoying such a revival - with excellent programmes such as Time Team and inspiring series on the History of Wales this week - do the "men in suits" not realise this is such an important part of connecting with our cultural identity?

This is about so much more than a collection of buildings, and (also important, of course) local jobs. <br /><br />Senseless.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2199077267332320513.post-79694860459832661182012-03-01T13:19:54.108-08:002012-03-01T13:19:54.108-08:00The National Museum at St Ffagan is losing its sou...The National Museum at St Ffagan is losing its soul too, all touch screens, security guards ("attendants") and "interpreters"gzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08034777779347889773noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2199077267332320513.post-5426525075149309922012-03-01T13:18:36.407-08:002012-03-01T13:18:36.407-08:00Here's a small offering of help: http://blackc...Here's a small offering of help: http://blackcatsews.blogspot.com/2012/03/cosmeston-medieval-village-petition.html<br /><br />Hope it raises a bit more awareness (though how much I'm not sure as my blog is very very new).<br /><br />-Mary (Cardiff Castle Garrison)Miriamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07941566213672427040noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2199077267332320513.post-64095690377733933082012-03-01T13:01:54.248-08:002012-03-01T13:01:54.248-08:00I wish you and everyone involved all the best for ...I wish you and everyone involved all the best for this, I really, really do.
