I have some hot banana peppers still growing in the garden....supposed to be 10X less hot than jalopeno’s and they still make my lips get numb while cleaning them.

When I was in Wales in 1966, I never heard anyone speak Welsh nor did I ever see a sign in Welsh. And we drove across the whole country—crossing the border at Chepstow in the southeast, then on to Cardiff, Aberystwyth, Dolgellau, Bala Lake, and finally crossing back into England at Birkenhead. It seems the language has been revived in the intervening decades.
