No place like Ddedwydd Nadolig

Just had my mother-in-law on the phone, much exercised that her Christmas Cards haven't been reaching a relative in Wales. Put the address she was using through a free Welsh-English translator. Turns out she'd been sending them to 'Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year'. Fail.

  2. Alienne - I looked that up; it's a classic. There was another which said, 'Pedestrians Look Left' in English, and 'Pedestrians Look Right' in Welsh. Love it!

    Steve, Joules - It had me giggling for the rest of the day.
