Welsh English is lush, it is. Valleys slang is its own beast, musical, warm, and peppered with Welsh-language borrowings that give it a rhythm you won't find anywhere else, like.

"Wicked I've seen used up north primarily and it is a word used for emphasis like you would use very or really. For example, I'm wicked tired. Can you hurry up?"
Dishy
"Have you seen the new weather presenter? Bit dishy, if you ask me."
Have a flutter
"We’re in town for the races, so I had a flutter on Noisy Biscuit. Tenner max, yeah, I’m not remortgaging for it."
Noddy
"He turned up to Tesco in his dressing gown, tried paying with an Oyster card, then looked offended when it bounced. Proper noddy."
Tash
"He’s doing Movember and reckons the tash makes him look like a legend. It’s more sad caterpillar, but we nodded and said it’s well smart."
Wicked
"You coming Friday? The new place in Soho is wicked, decent tunes, cheap-ish pints, and the bouncer actually let us in for once."
