Lots to catch up on here, there is like 5 pages of posts and i am going to have to wade through all of it. A very nice weekend it was, only trouble was that i was ill for most of it, so that fuckedit right up! So glad to be back at work now, yeah right!
"Bore da" is the usual good morning I thought, is "da bore" also used?
even though i've relatives in wales, my attempts to fool lifers into thinking i knew the basics of welsh lasts all of 8 minutes.
which translator did you use? ;-)
I was visiting mates who are from charlton, and a couple of mates who are from southend, so we were in the majority and the only welshie was my mates bird, who was totally out numbered. So didnt really see any welsh locals! Not many shheeepps in mumbles i tell thee!
I used to live in Merthyr Tydfil....i thought about learning welsh whilst i was there...but gave up never got past 'good morning/evening" and "what is your name"!!!

what does 'da bore a chroesawa bacia' mean then?
i typed into a translator ' good morning and welcome back', and that is what i got.
My version (Bore da a croeso yn ol) was basically what your translator gave but spelled correctly and the words put in the correct order. The only word I would challenge in your version is "bacia" - presumably meaning "bacio" - which is to back in the sense of reversing a car.

More like "Bore da a croeso yn ol" - but I can't do the circumflex.
Salad - you appear more convincing - how so? (and what does gyffredinol mean?)

I am from Swansea, but I don't speak Welsh (the long sentence above was cut and pasted!)
I grew up near Cardigan and I actually have an O level in Welsh. You can't imagine how useful it is.
Perhaps you can!

Do you know where Mumbles gets its name from?
