Welsh Road Signs

According to a story in the “Funny Old World” column in the current issue of Private Eye, road signs in Wales are “mistranslated into Welsh on an enormously regular basis”. The example given is of a sign at a roundabout between Penarth and Cardiff. The English Cyclists dismount is given in Welsh as Llid y bledren dymchwelyd, or Bladder disease has returned.
