    I betcha it has to be:

    Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwyll-llantysiliogogogoch

    This is the name of a town in North Wales. The name translates as 'The church of St. Mary in the hollow of white hazel trees near the rapid whirlpool by St. Tysilio's of the red cave' in Welsh, has long claimed the fame of having the longest name in the world. ( Not so according to this site)

    This is a cryptic clue to what place in France, 'What a common madame'?

    This place, once a "seeing place," has seen it all: first a stronghold, it's been a walking place, a drinking place, a disbarking place, a swimming place (but not for people), a singing place, and now an embarking place. Oddly enough, never a drumming place, though virtually in a former shooting place that still retains the name. Named for a politician, then renamed horticulturally, it's again named for the politician, no relation to other more recent ones of the same name. Where in the United States is it?

    Why do we use the expression "to welsh on a bet" when speaking about the loser of a wager failing to pay up? Are Welsh people notorious for doing this?
