|
Climate: |
Wales has
the sort of climate often described as "temperate". This
means that it never gets very hot or very cold. May,
June, July and August are the sunniest and driest
months, but even in the winter a raincoat and sweater
will usually cope with the worst that the weather has to
offer. |
|
Language: |
English
is the day to day language for most Welsh people. Due to
the efforts of many dedicated people the Welsh language
still flourishes (and there is a Welsh language TV
channel). The 1991 census gave a figure of 18.5 per cent
Welsh speakers. |
| Currency: |
The
currency is that of Britain in general i.e. the pound
sterling, sometimes referred to on the Net as the GBP. |
