      Roedd y gwanwyn mor fendigedig ac mi roddodd gyfle i ni sylwi ar y gwanwyn go iawn a pan dwi'n edrych yn ôl, roedd o fel dyddiau euraidd - bod adra bob dydd trwy'r dydd, a dod i nabod yr ardal a'r cymdogion a gallu stopio a rhoi amser i bobl.
      The spring was so lovely here and it provided the opportunity for us to really notice spring and when I look back, they were halcyon days - being home all day every day, and getting to know the area and the neighbours and being able to stop and give time to people.
