Never too late to learn Welsh | Test match for India/Pakistan joint side | Bluegrass v jazz | Free Sky for over-75s? | The size of CubaWe were thrilled to see that Welsh is now “cool (G2,13 June). After 40 years of going to the Brecon Beacons national park every holiday and any spare time we have, we decided it was time to learn the language. We started in January (the oldest people in the course by far), or are finding it extremely difficult,but are determined to maintain going – whether cool or not.

How about a Test match between a joint India/Pakistan team and the Rest of the World?
