COLD DARK ROOM

Depends which part if Wales you are in.
West, Mid and North its prob first language
South East and East nearer the border with England is predominantly English.
and was practically wiped out by being banned in the 19th century.
Welsh is compulsory in all Welsh schools now so its making a big come back.
My Dad was a Welsh speaker but not my Mum so we were brought up with English.
I went to lessons to learn it but am not fluent.
I can understand more than I can speak though.

Aw cool! So if you go to school in one part of Wales they will teach in Welsh and have English as a subject? Then the opposite way round if your from another part?
It's a big part of the Welsh culture so I think it's great most people can still speak it

Aw that sounds fab!!! Lucky you. I had a roll and bacon for my dinner and it was awesome!
What storm are you expecting?

That sounds delicious! We've got a hurricane heading our way, unsure how much is going to hit now but who knows? It changes every hour lol.

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

Just dandy! Sitting on the couch wrapped up in a blanket and smelling our crockpot chicken fajitas cooking. They've already canceled clinicals Monday in preparation for the storm.

So you get the day off!!!
Hurraahhh!!!!

We have many Welsh primary and comprehensive schools now in South Wales where the curriculum is taught through medium of Welsh. Even English speaking parents are making the effort to learn now to keep up with their kids.

Hope you manage to stock up as Ed suggested, then batten down the hatches and stay safe!

Hi Lyn! It's really good, how about you?

Not too bad thanks Meech,
We are having incredible sunny (but chilly) weather at the moment and the sun always makes everything seem better.

Mid day temps in the sun are about 17-20 at the moment - warmer than most of the summer!
But definitely chillier mornings and evenings

Hopefully you won't need them, but better safe than sorry.

Very true!

Wow! That's nice and warm for this time of the year. Enjoy it.

I am - it's great - but I think it's all set to change again next week.
I don't mind the rain in the Autumn and winter when it's expected
- it's when we have it all summer as we did I get fed up with it.
