Welcome home Lady K. Did you enjoy your trip to the UK ?

Do you have a British accent now?

Or even a WELSH one LadyK??

My trip was wonderful. I got to see 14 plays in 12 days and still had lots of free time to visit Parliament, Westminster Abbey, Leeds Castle, Dover, Canterbury, 2 art museums, and the London Transport Museum in Covent Garden. My accent hasn't changed, but I did get an earful when I saw Men Should Weep at the Royal National Theatre. The setting of the play is Glasgow in the 1930s, and it took some tuning to get my ears adjusted to the Scotts accents. It was a terrific play, however, with memorable characters and a good story.

It's probably a good thing the play didn't take place in Wales, Gelert. The Scotts may raise havoc with their vowels, but at least they have some.

Glad you had a good time, Lady K. Did you enjoy eating these meat pies in all these restaurants and did you get to visit the Queen and have tea with her?

Who did you go with? Did you take lots of pictures? If you did, could you maybe post some of them online for us to see, please?

No vowels !!!! Dear me !! I can think of at least four in Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch !!

Perhaps you should have visited for a cup of tea.

I shall endeavor to do so next time I'm across the pond. When I start seeing signs that say Cymru am byth, I'll know I'm close, right?

You've got it.
