It's been a while, though so I can't remember much except going to a spooky island and Nimue turning into a demented shithead.Have you read the Saxon stories?

I couldn't get into them as much as Warlord. But I've read his book about Stonehenge, which I liked. And I wanna get around to reading the whole Sharpe series one day.
Your nameplate, its a song, right? oh lol, I'm listening to it now <___<

Rydw i'n mwynhau Cymraeg. Achos mae'n wych!Feck it, can't reply back in Welsh but I got the gist of what you said.It's mostly because how it's taught in schools here. If you're first language Welsh, great, you get taught it on par with English studies where they go into grammar and more advanced shit.If you're second language, it's basically the above if you're top-set (I couldn't go there because I couldn't speak welsh fluently enough to understand or respond) or bottom-set which is elementary level Welsh (which I had already learned in the first year of being here...) until you no longer do it (GCSE's). There doesn't appear to be a middleground, either you know it already and it's honed, or you don't know it all and you learn fucking colours at 16. I get it, coch is red and gwyn is white, ok!Also, fuck mutations.

It wasn't too hard, just tedious at timesIt's so bad that because I went into the lowest set I had the entry-level exam, which I passed easily because it's retarded. The highest you can get is a C, which I got, and it's a better result on paper than most of my fluent Welsh friends because they took the higher level exam and had a harder marking scheme.And yet here I am, having barely a clue about the language but with a grade that makes me look like I know my shit.
I feel ya. You can do great at an exam but as soon as you leave school it all goes out the window.Where in Wales were you
