A bit of Wales in Woolworths, Germany

 Today, on the way to my sketching and drawing classes, I had occasion to pop into Woolworths for something. 

On the way upstairs again, I happened to notice some new front door mats on display. One of them had 'Welcome" printed on it in various languages, with the words in different fonts of different sizes. 

And right at the top of one mat, a little small, but plainly printed in bold black, was 'Croeso'. I wasn't expecting to see a Welsh word in Woolworths today - or anywhere in Germany for that matter. 

What a pleasant surprise!

  1. Fantastic! I believe you can study Welsh at university in Berlin. Is that true?

A welcome pain in the neck - for once

This year has been a very slow year workwise. If I've not been twiddling my thumbs, I've been crocheting hats and scarves and sewing...
