    I know a few Welsh phrases that would not go down well with the mods at all best I leave it at that.

    My great uncle Dai taught me a few such phrases when I was a kid (until my old man had a quiet word with him) I'm not going to pretend I can pronounce them properly, let alone type them out, but I have used them to entertaining effect on more than one occasion.

    It is completely random phrase isn't it? Like something you would expect John Cleese to utter when quoting from the dirty Hungarian phrasebook. Is hovercraft ownership on the rise in Wales and are eels a particular problem encountered when operating one?

    Madness.

    Still great pictures of what looked a grand weekend
