Grandpops can actually say this :

Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwyll-llantysiliogogogoch

He might be able to say it but it's a fantasy just like the idea that thousands upon thousands of people speak Welsh as a first language.

The name is just a fabricated tourist board publicity stunt, much like the idea that anyone actually speaks Welsh these days ....... they don't.

 
.....I've been many times and have never heard anyone speaking Welsh, it's not based on one day ....

I once pulled into a petrol station in Wales where I heard English being spoken by 2 men and 2 women. When they didn't recognise me they all started speaking Welsh. Ignorant buggers.

As I was walking out I said there was a ****ing awful smell about the place. I got a lot of Anglo-Saxon abuse I understood all too well <laugh><laugh><laugh>

There are though. Deny it if you want to please yourself, but there actually are. I work in the translation industry (project managing, not translating) and I see it every day.


So, as you're such an expert ......... what percentage of these 'thousands upon thousands of Welsh people' speak Welsh as a first language.

Now that you're beaten, you're just on the wind up ;) Catch you later, lads.

Where was that?

The inevitable response of someone on the run ......... no problem, you're not the first and won't be the last <laugh>

It's no wind up, just facts.

Everyone in Wales speaks English, the dual signs are just an obvious sign of an inferiority complex.

Totally justified and understandable in my opinion.

How am I meant to know? Do I work for the Government?

Just got better things to do than argue with the dumb. Why don't you come live down here for a bit? You'll see it for yourself then, you don't have to look far but you won't see it if you have no idea what you're looking for. Plus, there's plenty of sheep to go around ;)

FFS man, you've retired and come back more times than Tom Jones <laugh>

I see they're now fitting sheep in South Wales with trackers .......... we call that 'Crimewatch' in England <laugh>

Anything to keep you lads off the sex offenders register though <ok>

"Dillwyn John, who has 900 sheep on his farm at Cwmtaff has fallen victim to sheep rustlers this year and over the last three decades.
"I estimate that I have lost half of my girls recently, these traffickers are a real problem " said Mr John. "It's a big problem in these parts."

"Whether you win, whether you lose, you were here, and you broke bread with the rest of the world" - Jesse Owen at the opening ceremony of the Montreal Olympics, 1976. A beautiful speech.

And typical of the kind of thing the winners say to be fair.

A bit like rich people saying, 'Money isn't really important'.
 
Born, one of ten black children, in Alabama in 1913, I can hardly think Jesse Owens was born 'a winner'. He made himself one by sheer balls and graft. But then it's so much easier to sit your arses and take the piss, I suppose. Enjoy.

Who's taking the piss, I'm certainly not and certainly not out of Owens.

I didn't say he was born a winner at all ........... don't twist my words to suit your own agenda <ok>

It isn't your right to speak for him or align yourself with him.

It's my right to align myself with who the hell I want. Is it your right to laugh at those with "tiny cocks"? (I trust I didn't twist your words to suit my "own agenda" - after all, you did put <laugh> on the end of it, didn't you?)

OK, you're the spokesman for Jesse Owens ......... my mistake <ok>

You were quoting Owens in 1976 and I respond to that specifically.

You them take it all the way back to his childhood.

NOT the same thing at al.
