Thread Name: Obfuscatory vocabulary.
Subject: RE: Obfuscatory vocabulary.
In the England, "Leyland" (with an "e") probably refers to a truck (they're now called "LDV", standing for "Leyland Daf Vehicles"; parts are made in factories all over my native Midlands). "Country Life" is a magazine for the Huntin' Shootin' and Fishin' set (or people who think they belong to it). I expect they have their own names for these things in Wales?

Glad to have been able to clear that up for you, Dai.
