Saw thera vy ow trouvya pobel erel trûedhek. My a gar agan keow bes dhe nebes tüs nag ens bes argh stroyl. Nag eus bosty boos üskis en ogas bes ma McDonald’s naw mildir alebma. Naw mildir ew lowr dhe lenky scobmow, bòrgers, hag erel, ha nena gwag ew an fardellow. Nag üjy an düs na ow estemya Kernow, na gwitha aga wastys aga hònan naneyl.

Ma stroyl reb an eglos ewedh.

My trouser waistband is tight! Perhaps I ate too much – certainly I’ve had no chance to drink too much for ages. So, I walk out in the countryside every day. But I find other people disappointing. I love our hedges but to some people they are just a litter bin. There isn’t a fast food restaurant nearby but there is a McDonald’s nine miles from here. Nine miles is enough to swallow chips, burgers, etc., and then the packets are empty. Those people do not respect Cornwall, nor look after their own waists. Out of the window with the packets and cups and bottles. In summer the litter is hidden by bracken, but in autumn we see more. The bracken is cut. Litter louts should fast. There's litter by the church as well.
