I thought that was the way one talked in Portsmouth?

Anything but random actually. Aber means river mouth, and Ystwyth is a river which becomes the sea at Aberystwyth. Hence mouth of the river Ystwyth. Very logical. (Ystwyth is Welsh for winding, so the river Ystwyth is "winding river")

I always find such facts interesting. So it means mouth of the winding river.

Yep, quite a nice name for a place really. Shame it's sooooo cold there.

My cellphone fell into the toilet ... after I had taken a leak. I should pride myself lucky that I had not just taken a crap, but it still was one of the most unpleasant things to stick my hand in there to retrieve the phone

I must've spent 15 minutes disinfecting the phone and my hands, but now the phone is doing funny things (such as displaying everything upside down).

Anyone ever had this happen to their phone (or something else valuable)?
