359. Welsh Idiosyncrasies - Nickname Series (30)

My Grandad who worked down Treharris Deep Navigation Pit, told of a bloke who when he first came to Merthyr got on the bus.  Not knowing how to ask for a return ticket, he made the best of it and asked for a ticket back and front.  From then on he was known as Dai Back and Front.
