I went to Uni at Swansea!!

I thought it very quaint when I was first there how signage everywhere is translated into Welsh.

I eventually found myself with quite a Welsh lilt - an interesting accomplishment for a "Saarf" London girl.

Now that I've been here in Australia nine years my accent and pronunciation has changed again so that I generally pass unnoticed amongst my fellow Aussies, as long as I don't lapse and say something like "traffic warden" when I mean "parking attendant".
