If every man, woman and child you met on your three visits gave you an attitude then I think you may be doing something wrong somewhere, provided of course you are not exaggerating. Try smiling - that usually works.



Only the ones in Anglesey... I have no problem elsewhere..

And I mean 'encounters' as in interaction with other people.

I make every effort to speak a foreign language when in a foreign country, BUT - I don't see why the hospital staff couldn't speak to me in English when it regarded my 6 year old daughters health. Especially when they managed to mutter in english to each other and also write on the medical forms in english.


hmm.... you could have been catching those odd words that are actually in English because they have no Welsh word for them.

I am always most surprised and sometimes a little amused that it takes practically nothing (a wee joke here, the odd jibe there, a sacrastic and usually quite funny utterance yonder.....) to provoke yet another flaming row on this here board.

Either we are all uppity twats or just seriously argumentative. Keep it up, folks!! ;-)
