Was he the one who got rid of all the gays in the village? Or was that St Ramone?

Re: Happy St David's Day........
He is the only Welsh saint to be canonized and culted in the Western Church. He died in 589 or 601 after founding a monastery in the area of Pembrokeshire which now bears his name, and living an austere life devoted to God.
He was also a vegetarian and only drank water.......a way of life I naturally subscribe to.....

Apparently he was baptised by St Elvis. Thank you very much.

Ah yes, childhood memories of bunking off school to avoid the Eisteddfod.
