Yes, terrible isn't it?

Who would use a language with hardly any vowels and long, long words which seem incomprehensible to non-speakers?

Oh! Wait!  That would be the Germans!!  ;D ;D

(Please note: just teasing Tati here - no racial slurs intended)

Just wait Tati - if we go back far enough you will have princely Welsh blood there somewhere!!

You're just jealous because you can't pronounce Streichholzschächtelchen like me :-*

Can't wait for that princely Welsh blood to be discovered   8)

Maescanner Road is opposite the entrance to Dyfed Steels. There's a tidy chipshop there ;)
