Not living in Nirvana at all. Not looking back with rose tinted glasses either, I’m giving my opinion on personal experiences. |

I disagree regarding it’s the norm. There a lot of fit young people about these days, the swimming classes, football club matches and training for all ages are full to the brim. What is different these days is young people have access to all sorts of online gaming equipment which simply wasn’t available years ago. I meet our 10 year old grandson from school every day and the vast majority of children I see are not overweight. |

Yes, they came to our daughters wedding in 2011, the reception was in the Oxwich Bay, it was a beautiful day and they were gobsmacked at how beautiful the area was.So much so that one of the families return every year for a break. |

No, you are at it again, blaming the money spent on the Welsh language as being one of the causes of the upheaval in the NHS. The Welsh government spends half of it’s total budget on health and social services which amounts to £12 billion pounds, it spends £23 million pounds on the Welsh language which is a small fraction of the total budget. Yes, I was and still am in favour of the 20mph limit, you weren’t stating that a lot of people were going to be inconvenienced just for the sake of saving a few lives. You look on the money spent on the Welsh language as being a waste of money, I don’t. |

Large swathes of, for example, London contain areas where very little English is spoken, Road signs are multi lingual with notices in hospitals,Police Stations, Post Offices etc written in up to half a dozen languages. Over a million people there don’t speak English, I suspect it is a similar situation in areas of Manchester,Birmingham, Leicester and Bradford. Just because 600,000 people speak Welsh in Wales, a language that has been spoken here for many centuries, there is outcry on here. So it costs a few quid to promote the language, it’s worth every penny. |

There are a number of minority languages spoken in the UK, what are we to do about them? In some of the large Cities dozens of primary and secondary schools are not English speaking, how much does this cost the tax payer? |

He seems to be a box to box player, unlike Grimes. |
