[sw-l] SignPuddle

[Sandy Fleming]

Hmmm... is there a bug?

I had Wales and Wales_2, and I deleted Wales

I then renamed Wales_2 to Wales, and it did so but displayed the old "Wales"
sign instead.

But now when I search for Wales in the dictionary, it says no results
found - so both have been deleted!

How come this sort of thing only happens to me?  :D
