Due to the previous deleted message (most of which I didn't see, but have been filled in by Timebandit), shall we start again? Please register your Welshness once more! I'm from Neath, by the way!

One morning when Ianto Jones was walking to the post office in Llandudno he met a Russian tourist.

“I am looking for Dai,” said the tourist.

Ianto thought for a moment and asked,

“Dai the post?”

“No,” said the tourist.

“Dai the milk?”

“No,” said the tourist.

“Dai the bread?”

“No,” said the tourist and he whispered into Ianto’s ear,

“The sun shines brightly over the meadow.”

“Oh, you mean Dai the spy. He’s over there, in the pub.”

The local chiropodist - Williams the corn-curer.

A Welsh physicist - Dai-atomic.

A reckless risk-taker - Huw ap Hazard.

You may be regarded as a Welsh Rare Bit :O)

Hmmm - perhaps I should volunteer myself as a mod then......maybe we need one for each language :)

Obviously none of the mods are welsh, they don't like threads they don't understand.

Yes, well done you snessy......and the title was fully bilingual too!

That's unfair, I don't remember it having too much welsh in it. I was really proud of my bit of welsh in the last thread, I took time out and googled it ;-)

Excellent suggestion Timebandit - breakfast at our place it is! :)

UkEngQatar and britexpat you are both very welcome to experience the warmth of the Welsh people one day when we are all back home. My most favourite meal ever is a Welsh Breakfast, you guys must come and let me cook you one sometime.

PS I am English but have been in Wales since 1982, and have considered it home ever since.
