Why, Wales put in a creditable performance against Scotland in the rugby field.
This may change next year, but, between you and me, I secretly cheer on Wales in Wales v. Scotland, because I like being Welsh!
Oh, what an upbringing I had. All my Welsh Aunts and Grannies used to declare, "Oooh! She's proper Scots," while my Scottish schoolfriends used to tease me ceaselessly about my silly accent.
I have no idea where "ashes" came from, neither the tree nor the residue from a fire resemebles the word "hynna". Sometimes that google translate seems to have a vivid imagination! :)
Now I know that I'm an inadequate Welsh person. Since all I can say is 'Hello, everybody' and 'The pencil is over there,' "Cheers/good health" and recite the name of a certain railway station. And I can't write any of this down!
Oh, Lordy me! They're all talking Welsh now. I really should excavate my Welsh language textbook from my Dad's house. I bought it with my pocket money at the age of twelve when I was suffering an identity crisis...
