    I see no ones actually tried to answer Bass’s question.

    ok then . . . . .

    It’s unlikely.

    We can blame the Romans firstly for pushing the Celts back to their forests and mountains, and then a succession of Saxon, Norman and then English kings.

    So if we look at the larger towns near the border, like Chester and Hereford, then language was Latin for the occupiers, followed by what eventually became English

    Unless a native Welsh speaker came back over Offa’s Dyke and set up some kind of settlement that persists to this day then I’d have to say definitely no.

    Maybe once, and then temporarily, by Owen Glendower.

    agreed Quiet Man.

    Remember being on the North Circular once with slip roads and cameras galore. Signs said 40mph limit and I checked to make sure I was ok but the next one said 30. But was that for the dual carriageway or the slip ? But wait it’s 40 again so I can accelerate. Or can I ? Have to be careful as another yellow box of subterfuged Hypocrisy Tax on car-drivers is rearing up; I think that’s for the main road….. What are the other motorists doing and are they making sense of it ? Oh its 30mph this bit……. I think……. No wait they’re out of range now so that’s the unwritten signal to SPEED UP.

    I seemed to be looking at everything except what was right in front of me, and all this when safe driving obviously demanded a consistent speed and proper road attention.

    Feckin’ traffic hazards……..

    quite shocked by this.

    Loads of Labour politicians joined the Communist Party before the war. It wasn’t such a big thing really and didn’t have the later Stalinist connotations of course.

    But wasn’t Jack Jones one of the moderate Union leaders, or was that part of his cover ?

    Yes and No

    On this season’s form he doesn’t deserve it all. How many league games has he started….12 ?

    On the other hand is the Paul Newman factor. Having been nominated so many times I don’t think anyone could really begrudge Giggs winning it at last.
    He certainly deserves it more than David Ginola ever did.
