Some 7 years ago,my wife and I were touring in Britain.finding it difficult to get a b&b in Caernavon,we moved on to Llanfair PG(don,t anyone dare ask me to give you the full name).We found a pub opposite the railway station,booked in ,then decided to have a few drinks.Naturally I asked for the drinks in English.There was a pregnant pause whilst all the people who had been speaking English when we came in,switched to Welsh and we were ignored.We did eventually get a drink,but we certainly weren.t made welcome there
