Headline of the day

From today's South Wales Evening Post:

Swansea City fans warned of the dangers of flammable novelty wigs

It is a shame they did not adopt the headline from the Council's press release which was:

Swans fans warned of dangers of flammable Mohican wigs

The Welsh for flammable Mohican wigs by the way is Wigiau Mohicanaidd llosgadwy.

Good, glad, to hear it. I hope you're persevering with it, though the tense suggests otherwise.

Have you seen this website?
