In a protest against a wind farm, a village has renamed itself

Llanhyfryddawelllehyn-afolybarcudprindanfygy-thiadtrienusyrhafnauole

which means:

"a quiet beautiful village, an historic place with rare kite under threat from wretched blades"

and this is now the longest place name in the UK. *amused*

Wales still scares me.

I love the welsh. They do speak very prettily. All those long squiggly words. Mmmmmm. When I rule the world the welsh will all be be mine. :)

The only Welsh word I can ever remeber is "gwasanethau", which (modulo probably incorrect spelling) means 'Motorway Service Station' or something close to that.
