unlike the scotts

i went to wales for the 1st time in a long time the other week.

i just could not believe how they've changed all the signs to dual language - it was just mind bogling - i felt i was going to have an accident everytime i tried to fathom out each sign. some words are that Long that they've had to shorten them which makes it a bit of a guessing game.

it put me well off. the rain is no longer the bad thing about about wales for sure.

...but I wonder why they do the same for petrol, its petrol in Wesh but its still written twice on a sign,

Aye, the lad on the left belongs to the McDonald clan. You can tell with the two quarter pounders hanging below his kilt  ;D

Easy chaps.

People can become tetchy because of the bigotry and hatred they endured for speaking their own language.

As for bilingual road signs, you'll be seeing more of these in Northern Mill towns and the Brick Lane area of London, etc.

I doubt anyone would lower themselves to start an article titled "stupid indians."

I changed the title of this thread least some of our many Welsh members get offended UB...I hope youy don't mind....
