  1. The lower one is actually placed there because Welsh people are shorter in stature....

  3. Nikos - of course! How silly of me not to realise. It's all those years being used as pit props. It's not a language thing, it's a disability thing.

    Smoking - although I might be expected to object to all the bilingual stuff, I am fairly relaxed about it. I only post ones that amuse me or which seem bizarre in some way. It's only when you live here for a while that you realise that the English can be pretty arrogant about it all. It's their language, after all, and they were speaking it before the Anglo-Saxons came.

    But I still reserve the right to find a garage advertising 'egsosts' and 'brecs' funny.
