My mother used to come to Trearddur Bay, Anglesey from 1937 when she was 16. As a family we would stay at a B&B then rent caravans and houses and finally bought a caravan in Trearddur Bay. It was where my husband (then boyfriend) came for our first holiday. 40 years later we are now retired and live here in Trearddur. My husband did his first degree at Bangor University at the age of 60, then a Masters and is now working on a PhD and working for the University. My dream for 40 something years has been to live here and have a dog. We’ve lived here now for six years and our dog is Welsh born and bred. I try to pick up Welsh phrases where possible, I think it’s only right to at least attempt to speak the language now. I’ve been approached a couple of times and been spoken to in Welsh and have been able to say Dw i ddim yn siarad Cymraeg sori. I think it was appreciated. : )
