    They really work very well and are quite retro stylish too. Like you I struggled with whether to buy one or not. Then finally the one in the picture was gifted to me by a friend who new I was a huge fan of PA. I dig it and it's in far better condition than most I have seen.

    I did a small whip repair job that brought me in a little extra spending money, so I got me a bit more baccie to celebrate. Welsh is written with regular everyday Latin Alphabet Ed. What is written above is done in Tengwar, one of J.R.R Tolkiens invented language forms. Tengwar comes in a few forms. Quenya, Sindarin etc. and few 'modes' or variants of the same. And to think, I hated Lord of the Rings as a kid! .

    I should clarify that I knew that was not Welsh, and that Welsh uses the Latin alphabet. just for the benefit of those that don't thread hop (or stalk if you prefer).

    Yes, I knew you knew, Ed, but I didn't know if others would know, and you knew, I knew that your question would make me explain to you like I didn't know, when really I did know...And you knew that would happen!

    Yes i also knew that you knew that i knew, but like you too I didn't know if others would know that I knew that you knew that I knew.
    Phew. Its always good to explain things for clarity isnt it.
    There is a slim chance that I have just repeated you, well paraphrased as a minimum, but I knew that you would know to expect that might happen.
