If you fancy your chances at pronouncing Welsh see PiP.

HWW, Maggs. Love the Welsh information and unlike Isabel, I could pronounce it better than I expected. The workmanship and the design of this wall is beautiful.

I just love it - we’ve been far too quick to destroy splendid design and replace with something “fashionable"

I agree, Maggs. This is stunning craftsmanship. The hand curving round the corner is a well-considered touch.

There is a huge shortage of artisans and craftsmen John, it’s such a shame. Glad you like the image.

And where's platform 9 3/4 ? ;-))
Well, if you know what the letters stand for in Welsh, it might be easier to pronounce it ;-)
Looks like "w" represents "o" or "ou". The rest I'll still have to figure out, but not today!!

HPICCSWW Maggie!
