+==== In Wales ====
+
+Araf!  I'm currently host of my good friend Cristina and
+her husband, in the small town of Llanon, near the city
+of Aberystwyth.
+
+I asked for directions outside Birmingham: "I'm going to a place
+whose name I can't even pronounce".  "Sounds like Wales, then"
+said the man I had stopped.
+
+Anyway, the place is nice.  It would be much nicer if it stopped
+damn raining, but, you know, this is the United Kingdom after all.
+
+This reminds me of a funny story: as usual, yesterday I drove
+out of the parking without looking in the wrong direction.
+This time, a car passed by cursing me with its horn.  So I
+finished my manover, of course going to on the right lane
+by force of habit.
+
+At this point, the car in front of me stopped, and I noticed
+it was strangely colored with yellow and orange stickers.
+A uniform came out and at this point I realized it was a
+policeman.
+
+He walked to my window, bearing a very serious face.
+Finally, he told me: "don't you know how to drive?
+You're supposed to stay on the *left*!"
+
+Promptly, I replied: "Err... Sorry... I'm used to
+drive on the right, you know?  It's my first time in *England*!"
+
+And the policeman, even more serious: "You mean in Wales,
+don't you?".  He'd probably close an eye for driving on the
+left, but not for calling his homeland England!!! :-)
+
+Well, driving on the left is a pleasant experience.
+And it's not even as hard as I thought: anybody not too much
+attached to their lives should give it a try!
