Wales by maggiemae

Wales

Taken some years ago when we were there. It deserves a place on 365.
So it goes in my second album.

Anyone who can pronounce this name deserves a reward too!
A lovely building Maggie , and what's the reward !! -- surprise , surprise , -- I can pronounce Aberystwyth !

@beryl You get three helpings of Welsh Rarebit, Beryl. I'll phone the nearest cafe!

I can pronounce Aberystwyth too.

I can also pronounce Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch
we lived near there in the 1970s.
Nobody loves a smart alec do they, ha ha.

@onewing haha, Babs - I love you, smart alec or not! I must say I have sympathy with the "siliogogogoch"

I like your processing, this is a wonderful house. Those names! 😊

Beautiful photo! Lovely edit. Not going to try the name!

I like how you've used the trees to frame the building and highlight the wonderful arched window

Yep, I can prounounce Aberystwyth too, a colleague from Deakin Uni went there for some unknown reason. But this isn't Aberystwyth from what I can see of that sign.

@onewing @maggiemae I certainly can't pronounce that jaw-cracker Babs. A Welsh friend once told me that the locals call it Llanfair[peegee]. I can pronounce that!

@golftragic You are darned tootin right, Marnie - the sign says Cwmystwyth!
August 30th, 2020  
@beryl See the latest, Beryl!
My photo says this is taken at Pontarfarnach but the sign says Cwmystwyth. No problem for you!

@maggiemae Pass on trying to pronounce that one MM, no idea where to start, too many consonants.
August 30th, 2020  
@golftragic Just keep your lips together, Marnie and blow!

I googled the language some time ago to get a better sense of pronunciation as I was reading a novel set in Wales. ...I gave up.

@aikiuser I think that was wise, Jean - otherwise you might have been carted off by the men in white jackets!

@maggiemae Not too sure that'd the trick, at least in polite company
