I had a call from a recruitment agency today who were asking about some work I did at a local authority. The recruiter asked which one and I said "Ceredigion". She said what, and I had to repeat it three times. In the end she asked me to spell it and as I started she said "Oh, Cardiff".
When I finally got it across, she said "I always struggle with the Welsh councils because there's so many, and it's almost like another language".
Almost.
