My first Welsh conversation

It happened this morning as my wife and I were going to church. A lady who goes to the same service was walking up just as we were getting out of the car and said “good morning, or I should say bore da”. I replied “sut dych chi heddiw”. That ended the conversation since her Welsh was limited to bore da and ty bach, and I I would have been stuck if she had asked me anything more complicated than whether I had a young cat or if I was going to buy cheese today, but the point is that I didn’t HESITATE, so I am feeling ridiculously chuffed.
