I enjoy reading all contributions on Glamorgan list my husband being born and bred in Caerau. He was schooled at the time when Welsh was only offered half an hour a week, and most of his mates didn't speak Welsh. His grandparents were immigrants, and in some cases neighbours who considered themselves "Welsh" gave her the impression that the family were inferior because they were non Welsh speaking. In my research with his families genealogy, it didn't take long to scratch the surface to see that "family" who he considered "true blue" Welsh were immigrants going back only two generations. In our visits to Wales we have come across most welcoming and friendly people, and enjoy it very much, but on a visit to St David's this memory sticks in my mind. We were watching stone masons repairing fences around the site, my husband being in the building trade, watched for sometime, and asked some questions relating to their work, which we found so interesting, and asked did they have to be registered to carry out this type of work on historical buildings. The reply from one of the workers, that you had to be born in Wales, my husband mentioned that he was born in Wales, and made a light remark something about being eligible, with a little bit more chat, the worker said that if you couldn't speak Welsh you weren't Welsh. The language in this case was "exclusive" not "inclusive". My husband's Welsh heart was hurt, I certainly felt for him. Helen, Tasmania
