Off topic slightly, but I have relatives that live in/on the Isle of Man. I never know whether I am going to stay 'in' the Isle of Man or 'on' the Isle of Man. Any grammar experts on here that can help out ?Staying in Anglesey at the moment at Rhos Neigr. Fucking wonderful. The beaches are phenomenal.

We have a Welsh neighbour across the way and last time they went back home we looked after the key. They brought us a tea towel with LlanfairPG as they say in the Japanese tea houses, held it up and I pronounced it perfectly. A fellow student back in the 60s from Llanelli taught me how to say it! She was suitably impressed to hear it from a Manc!It’s easy for you to say….

My one and only party trick is I can recite the town in the title in English!

I can only think of Ryan Giggs who fits that description. Oh, and that Colin Wanker from Sheffield, he'll be an honorary Welsh poet.Because they are cunts.

Another one of my favourites is sinemaI like how they spell taxi as tacsi.
Does x sound different in Welsh or are they just being extra?
