you can toggle the website to WELSH!!!! Oh thats it - I am in heaven!

Da iawn Ali Express!

_------------------_

I just tried it. It actually uses Google translate so it produces Sgymraeg like "112 bleidleisiau" instead of "112 pleidlais"

For those who dont know "Sgymraeg" is a combination of the Welsh word for the Welsh language

"Cymraeg" and the English word "scum". It is used for the kind of stuff that appears all to frequently on signage.
Like this hilarious example . A blogger from somewhere in Wales picked up on my photograph taken on the Kingsway and published in the magazine Golwg and blogged about it. http://amlwchmagor.blogspot.co.uk/2008/07/but-officer-sign-told-me-to.html [1]

Other examples are shops selling "Traffic Jam and Marmalade" and labelling whisky, gin ,vodka etc as "ghosts" not "spirits", a school entrance being labelled not "Pupil and staff entrance" but "pupil and stave thrown into a trance" and "Cyclists dismount" becoming "Inflammation of the bladder overturn."

 Sounds a bit expensive.

 If your willing to wait a couple of weeks anyway (that listing was AUS)

 then Compare against this :-

 http://www.aliexpress.com/item//1487027133.html [4]

 add ons to that are the heatbed (about ?6)

 and a timing belt and pulleys (about £5)

 shop around a bit for RAMPS 1.4 kits and youll find ones with more

 graphical LCDs as well.
