I spent my childhood days in a small town in mid-Wales. This quiz is about Machynlleth, which I remember with great fondness - and a great deal of hiraeth (which is Welsh for 'longing for Wales').

I will give you the names of two towns or cities in Wales, you have to say which direction (approximately) the second town is from the first. For our members that live in Wales, this quiz shouldn't be too difficult, but for others, find an atlas first!
