Talking of political correctness gone mad,
Yesterday we had a booklet about beginners Welsh classes in the area, but
here everything has to be Bi lingual so half of it was in Welsh, well if
you could read that half you wouldn't need the classes.


Once, I wanted to move to rural Wales so I tried to learn some Welsh. I can
ask you what your name is and a few other things like "I have been working
hard today" and I knew a lot more.

Welsh is a fascinating language and had I moved there I would have got
better at it, but as I didn't, I didn't.
I've forgotten most of it.
I took Welsh lessons from a North Wales person which didn't help much for
rural Cardiganshire.
