New bilingual 'Welcome to Cornwall' signs have been put up on the Tamar Bridge, A30 and other crossings. It is after many years of either having basic 'Kernow' signs, or in the case of the A38, none at all.
The Cornish text says: "Kernow a'gas dynergh"

The Loving Cup in Truro
16/03/2007
The Loving Cup came to Cornwall today after a big campaign against it. Truro City Council had voted in favour of welcoming the English cup, even though there was a big complaint against it from many people. There was a big group of Cornish supporters dressed in their national coloursoutside the town hall when the organiser, Bruno Peek, arrived. The protest was quiet and went without any trouble. The cup was received by the city mayor and an ambassador from the Cornish group spoke to Bruno Peek so that he may understand the reason for the disquiet.

Motorists in a village in the middle of England were a bit confused today when they came across a road sign written in Welsh.
Luckily it also had an English translation.
