<3 Wales

[Cacoethes]

Wales is beautiful!
Although pretty much everywhere is impossible to pronounce :p

[Cpt_Stunning]

I've been to Wales & Scotland, but only to Cardiff (Wales), Edinburgh & Glasgow (Scotland) not the countryside of either.

[Sketchy]

Hi cpt stunning. I haven't been to Edinburgh in ages. I should go again.

[Buttons.]

I've only ever been to Edinburgh once as a child so was bit too young to appreciate it, although I do remember liking haggis.

Re languages my dad used to teach at a university in Wales and they had to have everything in both languages as well.

Thanks all :)

I like vegetarian haggis. Haven't had it in ages.

Hello all.

[Eska]

Hi, how's your evening?

[not_so_insig]

I am a bit better than before. I am having a quiet night.

[Sketchy]

I'm already curled up in bed. Deciding whether to read or watch something on Netflix.

[not_so_insig]

I would have netflix but I don't have unlimited data so I would be scared of going over my allowance. Plus I have plenty of dvds.

Did you go to a Welsh-speaking school, Dawn, or did you learn it at home?

[Buttons.]

I'm very impressed Dawn, it seems such a hard language to learn!

Just watched the film Kubo, wasn't expecting it to be my thing but I actually thought it was pretty good. Anyone else seen it/have an opinion? Made me deserately want to learn origami but I have tried and epically failed at that before ;P

[not_so_insig]

My dad talked to me in Welsh whilst I was at home from when I was little but I went to a bilingual school in a Welsh speaking area. My first language is English though. I did second language Welsh gcse in the hardest tier possible and got a B. I could have done it a level but years of bullying meant that I didn't have enough confidence to do so. I have found learning foreign languages easy as I have qualifications in french and Spanish. I can listen to something in a foreign language a few times and learn the correct pronunciation.

[Buttons.]

That's a really impressive skill to have Dawn, apart from some sign language I'm not very good at foreign languages. It's a shame bullying put you off doing the A level though-is there no way you could do it now?
