[Projoy] I think we did have one with Clwyd but I’ve completely forgotten it. Perhaps because it was no good.

Said Huw Brys, a poet from Clwyd
"I'll write of my home, and not rwyd!"
But in Betys-y-Coed
He completely destroed
His verses. He blwyd—and knwyd

(CdM) I chortle. My Dad would be amused and impressed. BTW it's Betws-y-Coed.

CdM

[Rosie] Thank you. And of course it is; how embarrassing. Can I restore some of my semi-Welsh cred in your eyes if I tell you I do know how to spell (and pronounce) Llanfairpg?

Rosie

(CdM) That's an easy one - just look at the signposts - they say LLANFAIR P.G. as do the bus destination blinds. The 58-letter version (a 19th century commercial gimmick) is for tourists only. 0

They staged the Eisteddfod in Gwent
So long-winded Rhys packed his tent.
He was, as things stood,
(and as poets go) good.
So, as good poets go, off he went.
