Does anyone know if they are having the same problems with terrestrial television today, it was working perfectly up until midday, then it just switched itself off.
The only channels I have are the channels on Sky Digital.

It's the same thing -- when Preseli was built English spellings were still prevalent [Llanelly, Caernarvon etc], and it's mainly stuck since then.

I purely quoted the spelling as used by the British Beeb on their page, so as not to confuse Mr Wiliams any further than he already was.

Strange language, this Welsh. H mutates into I when used at the beginning of the name of a television contractor, yet Y mutates into I when at the end of the name of a transmitter.
