Last time I went to Powys it rained
8:00am Monday 6th July 2009
SIR – So R G Turner of Powys is never going to visit Worcester again because of the droning noise of an aeroplane.
Well the last time I went to Powys it rained all day so I shall never go there again!
Get real.
L N Janes,
Worcester.

They do not speak a "foreign language" in the shops (I assume you're talking about Welsh), as this is mainly found in the west and north of the country.
And as for your question of why anyone would want to go there? How about you Google the "Elan Valley" for example, and think again!
Granted, it does rain quite a bit but the acres and acres of unspoilt countryside kind of makes up for it.
The only reason I moved away was for my career. If I'd had the choice I'd have taken Mid-Wales over Worcestershire any day of the week!
Plus, as a rugby fan, it's nice to live in a country where the national team is actually any good!

Great stuff, Tulstar - only kidding!
I knew when I wrote it somebody would "bite" - it's what I call a "hand-grenade" comment! They don't all explode, but many do!
Maybe my wife and I have just been unfortunate in our Welsh experiences - even on my best behaviour, we were nearly always met with moderate resentment, when they knew we were English.
We were plainly not welcome, even in holiday places - which is sad, because Wales is a very beautiful land.
I do know the Romans never got there - there isn't a straight road in the place!
..but the lamb is the best in the world! Baa none!

Always one for a smile, our Cromwell - centre of the universe! Yeah, right! Keep taking the tablets, that man!
Used to be - but not no more, old buddy!
They can sing, though! Cred-it where it's doo, mon!

The world stops when Michael Jackson is buried and for me I was left wondering what all the fuss was about but when the Welsh Angel sings, I am just spellbound, this is real singing, real entertainment by a beautiful young woman. Even if we lose the first Test, the Aussies have got nothing to touch her and they are beaten all hand down before they lift a bat.

Why would anyone at all, want to go to Powys?
It's "abroad" and they speak a foreign language in the shops!
