Default Welsh translator required...

Saw this in the news today, of how I just love political correctness when it leads to things like this.....

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/7702913.stm

Maybe I should have posted it in the joke section!

I also remember seeing it originally. Odd how these things suddenly pop up again on the BBC site every now and then.

I used to think a place called Araf was just around the next corner every time I went to Wales.

Well I'm the most current on here and I hadn't seen it

They could've checked it with google translate .

I'm down that way tomorrow on the bike as it happens, 8 days of lovely Welsh roads, I don't care if the signs make no sense.

S'alright it's funny. Remembered it as soon as I saw it and wondered why it was in the news again though.
