WELCOME
Welcome to John Manning's home pages.
Brynheulog is Welsh for "Sunny Hill" and is the name of my
home near Cardiff, which is the capital city of Wales.
The country of Wales is part of the United Kingdom of Great
Britain and Northern Ireland, and now has its own Assembly.
Wales is a beautiful, hilly, fertile country with a history of coal
mining and agriculture. The mining is now almost gone but
the agriculture continues, accompanied by high-tech industry
such as electronics manufacturing. Tourism is also popular.
Welsh people are renowned for their love of Rugby football
and singing. They have a national orchestra and opera
company; for more on the orchestra see my Interests
section.
This interior view of Brynheulog was created using
AutoCAD.
It gives a clue to some of my interests. Music and wine are
easy to spot; the picture over the piano is of Tossa de Mar
on the Costa Brava of Spain, one of my favourite
Mediterranean snorkelling spots.
