Hi Jean
I don't live in Wales now but have many happy memories of South Wales that's where I met and married my husband. We are both from Yorkshire. My husband was working on the open cast coal mining and my Father owned the Dinas Hotel in Pontneathvaughan (Pontneddfechan in Welsh) it's little village near Glyn Neath. The little river that runs through the village separates Glamorganshire from Breckonshire. I lived on the Breckonshire side.
Spent many happy hours in Neath and Swansea also when I was courting my husband.
Nice thread
All have a great day
Regards
Jackie
p.s My eldest son is Welsh he was born in Penrutin (Not sure on spelling) Hospital Neath

Born and bred In Liverpool but live in Conwy.

My daughter moved here when she was 11 months old, now 13 years old (sorry 13 1/2 years old). She thinks of herself as Welsh and can speak it (sort of).
Does that count?
