LLANFAIR............................???

I mean CARDIFF.

[Lena & Harry Smith]

Carmarthen, (that long name escapes me)

[mariana44]

Marian may know----or Edgar !

[Lena & Harry Smith]

Well i've just had to have a browse round Marian, because it's not a word I use every day, but i can confirm it starts with an L and ends with an H.

[Marian]

I'll give it a go without looking it up Marian and Lena..
Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyndrobwllllantisiliogogogoch

Hope that's right! I can say it better than I can spell it.
Marian

[Lena & Harry Smith]

just one little "r" missing Marian, but well done. I wouldn't have a clue how to spell it, let alone say it. I can say "Caerphilly quite easily but have to look it up every time I need to write it.

[Pam]

I was trying for soccer with Manchester United, I do like that long name, how many people live there

[Marian]

I'm not sure how many people live there Pam but it is on the Island of Anglesey, so I guess not too many.
It means 'Saint Mary's Church in the hollow of white hazel near a rapid whirlpool and the Church of St Tysilio near the red cave'
It is mostly referred to as Llanfair PG.
Marian

I will continue the game with Glasgow (we have moved to Scotland now)
