 * "Let’s get the myth out of the way now. “Popty ping” is not the Welsh term for the microwave oven, sorry."
 * "Yes, yes, we know no one in Wales actually uses 'popty ping' but that hasn't stopped it acquiring a momentum all of its own"
 * "No - it's popty microdon. Popty = oven and microdon = microwave.  Sorry to disappoint."
 * "It’s not really popty-ping, if that’s what you’re getting at. [Popty means ‘oven’, so it’s an oven that goes ping. It’s a joke. The proper name is microdon - the don bit means ‘wave’.]"
