Thanks Mat, It is fun picking out his borrowed themes. I have heard Peter Schiekle on radio on a number of occasions and he is just as funy as he was on his recordings. But he always manages to impart a good bit of musical knowledge.

Methinks somebody remembers this

A bit more nostalgic Brit humour.

As this is a nusic forum maybe this is appropriate humour, the Kings singers rendition of the old Cornish air/ditty/song Widdecombe Fair.

Apropos Wales - Is there a transliteration of Llanfair's "Long Name" - You know the one with over 100 or more letters?

 

[Dorsetmike]

It's often referred to as Llanfair P G , the ful name is 63 letters.

The village also has its own website, which has the longest URL, includes how to pronounce it and a translation of what it means

That is a good version Mike and is not out of place on this Nusic forum

CD. I bought my Jamaican cousin a paperweight with the name of the village inside it. Apparently as well as being a talking point some of his friends refused to believe it was a proper name until he Googled it.
