Been told I’m very “Welshy” but my area is a weird one.

Like you go into Wrexham town/bit further on towards the North and people almost speak Scouse or “Scelsh” (hybrid). Where I am and towards the town of Llangollen are very Welsh sounding but go a little over past Chirk way towards Oswestry and it’s very different again.

When I went to uni (my local in Wrexham) my mate off my course assumes that I came from near her in Cardiff when she first met me because of my accent!
