there's been loads of campaigns to teach the welsh their own language again, theres welsh schools and english speaking schools have compulsary welsh taught in them and i saw a poster today that said in llanelli 22000 + people now speak welsh which is a step in the right direction, i am extremely content with learning it soon, ill have to, i don't think i could live with myself if i didn't, im very much a patriot. but for now ill just have to live with it...
