Swimming is my sport. I compete and I train almost every day. College has a pool and I am in it every lunch time. And Wednesday and Friday we don’t have lectures in the afternoon so I train quite hard.

I wish you good luck and best results in your swimming endeavour. Its the best exercise of all. I live by the sea and swim as much as I can , but not competitively
I am not surprised. I feel close to Irish people. What is your real name? If you want to say. Mine is Blodyn. It’s Welsh. As Welsh as St Patrick was before he was kidnapped! @Daintybeast
@Blodyn I'm Billy or Liam in Irish. My family history is that as a family we left France in the 17 th century to avoid persecutiin. My French name is Guullaume deVrell
Hi Liam. Like Gwilym in Welsh. My family is from Normandy. We are Protestants. They left Normandy a few centuries ago. I don’t know when. But like most Norse we adopted the local language. So I speak Welsh and English is my second language. @Daintybeast
@Blodyn yes I am , i've maintained the tradition. A lot of Huguenots moved to a town called Portarlington in the midlands. There is a French festival there every July, and a French church and a street called French Church Street. There is a vibrant Huguenot community there still
That is so good to hear. I should love to be there. I speak French. My first language is Welsh. I had no idea. I only know I am Huguenot because my father told us stories of our past. And before that the Huguenots were Norse people. As in North Man Dy, Normandy. @Daintybeast
