The official opening of Hafod Eryri is due to take place one week from tomorrow. Hopefully this will be the case, otherwise the commemorative engraving on a small boulder prepared in readiness at the rear of the building will need amending. Fingers crossed that the weather will be better than it was at the September 2006 'demolition ceremony', where at times you could barely discern the building through mist and drizzle.

The June 12th ceremony to be carried carried out by Wales' First Minister, The Rt. Hon. Rhodri Morgan AM, may coincide with the actual opening as the building hasn't yet welcomed visitors through its doors. But the tills are in place and the shop in the café area is now stocked so perhaps this coming week that may change. The opening ceremony will also most likely will be the subject of the final posting for this blog.
