Bladder inflammation overturn

Welsh cyclists beware - inflamed bladders ahead

Officials had translated the command "cyclists dismount" from English into Welsh for the sign between Penarth and the capital Cardiff.

However, the result had been the baffling phrase: "Llid y bledren dymchwelyd" which roughly translates as "bladder inflammation overturn".

"The root of the problem was seeking an online translation and that's where it went wrong," a council spokesman said on Wednesday.
