Least interesting post of the day:
Did you know that the gender of nouns in other languages influence the adjectives assigned to them?
The word “bridge” is feminine in German and masculine in Spanish. Sure enough, German speakers described bridges as beautiful, elegant, fragile, pretty, and slender, while Spanish speakers said they were big, dangerous, strong, sturdy, and towering.
Still awake?
I’ve re read the initial message and can only conclude it’s a poor attempt at a wind up insinuating Wales is indoctrinated with a cultish obsession with the Royal family.
Any half arsed search could show there’s been a lot of opposition to it.
Still, must be a boring day in louth.
Not many really care what its called, you will find the nationalist few will be making alot of the noise , Oh oh he isnt Welsh, what has he done for us etc etc etc
Sell the name and use the money to scrap the toll now :thumbup: then the next time it is up, use the money for a good cause
I opened this post as i thought it was a discussion on the brilliant drama https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episodes/b03bnc34
My understanding was it is to be Called the Prince of Wales bridge, so there is no direct reference to Charles.
there have been many Princes of wales, he is but one of them.
Read the small print. It's being named the Prince of Wales Bridge in honour of Charlie Windsor for all the good things he's done for Wales, such as bringing it prosperity and putting it on the map worldwide. No one has done more for the profile of Wales than Charlie boy.
Whenever I go abroad and say I'm from Wales, the first thing the locals do is say "Ah, Prince Charles, yes I know him. He is fantastc"
