Abused by grunted atrocious "wenglish", sure, but not Welsh. Maybe if people like Beryl had taken Welsh back in school, she wouldn't feel pushed out of the job market because a lot of places want bilingual speakers (which they do more and more, I've noticed that).Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18363490148416651473noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-552546590454255139.post-19776749695731396822008-08-19T15:46:00.000+01:002008-08-19T15:46:00.000+01:00I love these 'crazies'.
