Sue. First, humble apologies. It was not you who told me where you lived in Valleys back in August. Truthfully, I thought it was. |

Thank you for apologising John, perhaps a little fact checking is in order before you speak. |

I'm sorry John - I like others don't have a mind of my own and blindly follow Sue's opening posts. It's so much easier not having to have opinions on anything but I will try in future to think for myself. |

I will in future Lynda - but you know how wise and wonderful our Sue is. Why would we think for ourselves? |

SueMaid. I wish I had posted the OP. Everyone would have disagreed with me and the status of the Welsh language would have leapt forward. Any English holidaymakers (and Aussies) would have been expected to get phrase book out and speak Welsh - or spend a night in the cells in Llanfair plus another 50 letters. Anyway, you can be assured of a warm welcome next time you climb into the mountainous and beautiful principality. |

I have been to Wales a number of times and no matter where I've been I've met friendly, warm people who have been happy to help me pronounce the names of different words and towns. This with much laulghter. Most people I have encountered have been interested in Australia and the fact that I was born in England - this in small villages and large towns. |

John, you have added to many threads & contradicted yourself on nearly all of them. Many members have given you good advice to do research on the subjects you add too, It's clear you don't, you just C&P things you find. You seem to enjoy winding others up on here for your own entertainment. Just because you live in Wales does not mean you know everything about Wales & the people in it. You don't know who on here lives or lived in Wales & might know more than you do. That said when lots of people tell you that you are wrong just accept that fact, it's better than making yourself look silly. IMHO |

TheBlackKnight. Thankyou for the comments. Have not C and P'd on this thread - think you are getting me confused with someone else. Have not contradicted myself on any thread - ditto. |

I'm adding again as I have experience as Suzanne does of having a conversation in English with a Welsh speaker as happened when I lived in a village near Blaenau Ffestiniog.This happened in a doctors surgery and as soon as another Welsh speaker came in and sat the other side of me talked in Welsh across me. |

I wonder if he looks at the cash register in the rest of Europe to determine what he owes as a lot of those till minders will speak to him in neither English nor Welsh. |

John, please tell me that your last phrase to Ron wasn't suggesting he has been drinking, cos that's what I read into it. |

When John is in a corner he does like to infer people have been drinking, he has done it before. :-D |
