Saint David's advice to the Welsh Assembly

 
The Celtic monk, abbot and bishop, Saint David, who helped spread Christianity amongst the pagan tribes of Wales died exactly 1,421 years ago today. Despite being separated by more than a Millennium and a half, the members of today's Welsh Assembly could do worse than take heed of Dewi Sant's most famous teaching: Gwnewch y pethau bychain ("Do the little things").

In other words: it would be far better for Assembly Members to prove that they can do the little things well (i.e. the already devolved powers) before wasting time seeking a referendum on further powers.
 
In the meantime, the Druid wishes all of his readers a happy Saint David's Day - enjoy your cawl!
