Shwmae, Sarah ydw i. I co-founded the Cwtch project, and yes I was born in Wales, lived there for 20+ years, and as a result learned Welsh in school; and while I no longer live there, I still consider myself, at least in part, Welsh.

Dai iawn…

I’ve often wondered how the rest of the world will pronounce Cwtch and Blodeuwedd Labs

I used to work at Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch Web Solutions Ltd, and I gotta admit we used to have a hell of a time.
When I lived there all the locals called Llanfair, or Llanfairpwll or Llanfair PG

The long name was created in Victorian times for tourist purposes

I lived in Llanfair PG when I was a kid
"Cwotch" and "Bloodwed"
