Let's see if the same happens for the wonderful dialect of the Forest of Dean - have translated old farmers from Forestese > English before. In pubs. Lubricating with rough cider.

Congratulations, though I do believe there was someone before you- the fellow on "Chewin the Fat" who used to translate the news for the Neds!
