Would love to be able to speak Welsh, my dad (who was welsh, though from the South) in his day was punished for speaking the language as a boy, so gradually grew out of the habit, esp after moving to England pre WWII when he was just 15 for a cabinet making apprenticeship.
We had a lovely holiday on Anglesey this year, stayed near Llandyfrydog, what an amazing island. An old friend used to work on site as a surveyer when they tried to kickstart the Parys mountain copper mine backin the late 90's, so know Almwch a little too.
