Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwy rndrobwllllantysiliowgogogochb erg is Wales' longest place name. But did you know that it was decided after Aled Jones and Shaun the Sheep were playing a game of Scrabble when Fireman Sam pushed over their game. The letter pieces coincidently landed in a line to spell out this word. As the 59 letter word looked vaguely Welsh, Aled Jones decided to name a small town after it. And so the town of Cwmditch was promptly renamed. True story

@InsaneAlbinoGiraffe translated into english it reads "The church of St. Mary in the hollow of white hazel trees near the rapid whirlpool by St. Tysilio's of the red cave" which is basically all that LlanfairPG (short version of the word!) is known for! idiot ;-)
