Hi all, I had an email yesterday from a lady in Cardiff (capital of Wales) enquiring about Blue Imps and smurf collecting. Basically, if I was a Welsh speaker they would have featured me and my smurfs on a Antiques & Collectibles programme on S4C the Welsh TV channel. Unfortunately I don't speak much Welsh, just enough words to understand very basic things, so I really thought better of it. The nice lady that I spoke to Today did suggest I might do a crash course in learning Welsh but as I have tried many times over the years (I even teach in 3 Welsh speaking schools) I really don't think it is ever going to happen.
The lady was very interested still in the smurfs and asked all sorts of questions about our collection and how popular the hobby is and basically couldn't believe just how many smurfs are out there. It is a shame that I couldn't promote the smurfs on TV but if are there any WELSH speakers reading here, please let me know as I have told the lady that I would try to find a collector and I am sure it would be great fun.
