    Yes I know. 😉

    As I’ve said before Ike is a weird person who comes out with many
    outlandish theories, which don’t take a genius to find using Google.

    Although in this instance he publicly named Savile and his accomplices several
    years ago.

    This is a very interesting article regarding the BBC, CH4 and McAlpine.

    Are you after digital images, or do you need OCR software to save them as
    text files ? Although saying that, I imagine these are hand written books ?

    Either way, these normally come with the scanner. As you are asking, it
    seems yours didn’t.

    I would have thought that software would be available from the makers of
    the scanner.

    Also a pair of lightweight headphones, for use in public areas.
    As not everyone wants to listen.

    The C-133 cargo hold was 86’10” long and about 20 feet in diameter.

    The Belfast had a hold length of 64 ft. with a diameter of 14 ft .

    According to what I read after a quick Google

    Yes indeed it is. But In think you missed the poster’s point which was that that word a few others comprise the total vocabulary of many people. An exagerration of course but to emphasise his general point about children learning the national language before any foreign languages.

    I didn’t miss his point, just trying to make one.

    Learn Welsh as a second language by all means, but English should (in my mind) be their primary language.
    Where else in the world do they speak Welsh, to any extent ?

    What is the primary language used in Welsh universities ?

    Figures from March 2010:

    Leaked documents handed to us show that over a 20-day period between February and March this year,
    more programmes on the Welsh-language channel were watched by statistically zero people than pulled
    in a five-figure audience.

    S4C is funded by an index-linked grant of more than £100m a year from the UK Government’s Department
    for Culture, Media and Sport.
