Dear Snuffy, Not being a Welsh speaker (I am Irish)-- I did wonder about using that one, myself, as the Irish language word for a ship is "long" (same word but spelled with just one letter L, and pronounced as "lung" !) but, as there are also plenty of people with the surname "Long" on both sides of the Irish Sea , I chanced that, combined with the word Captain. it was more likely a surname in this case. Apologies for guessing wrongly and Ta Muchly for the timely correction, which I really do appreciate as misinformation can be really annoying. I will try to be more careful in future. God Bless, Anne XX
