I Was Raised In Wales

This is where I grew up: a small village on the North Wales coast called Penmaenmawr.

Beautiful place with very dramatic landscapes. I'm down South.

The UK is such a great country. I'm very proud of it!

Yep, but Wales truly is God's country ;)

I live in Lincolnshire now. I love the agricultural setting but I miss the sea and the mountains. The rugby songs aren't as good either!😉

@Sucklemegood: Calon hapus calon lân. Stop it, your giving me hiraeth!

WelshLovely · 46-50, F

Calon onest, calon lân lol. Have you been away that long you've forgotten the words? ;)

Hiraeth is a wonderful thing ;)

No, I knew the words, just typed out the wrong one. You are right, I get a wonderful feeling when I drive over the border at Queensferry and see the sign 'Croeso i Gymru'. I go back about 4 times a year.

WelshLovely · 46-50, F

Lol we always beep the horn at the same sign when we're coming back over the Severn bridge!!

SW-User

Da iawn. Bless you cariad!
