Kylie, cats and quick proposals

Answer: they are two of the quirkiest and most popular stories featured on the BBC Wales News website this year.

Kylie was filming scenes for her role as a waitress at a Swansea hotel when a customer asked her for a cup of tea.

Luckily, the Australian singer with Welsh roots saw the funny side and laughed at the mistake.

In June Alison Thomas, from Felindre, near Swansea, asked a more reasonable question. Was her pet cat Des a record holder with his 26 toes?

The story attracted lots of responses from users who also have many-toed felines, while one expert said cats with extra toes around the old county of Cardiganshire were sometimes known as "Cardi-cats".

Also in June a story which made good reading was the tale of Sidra Afzal, a five-year-old from Fleur-de-Lys, near Caerphilly.

Sidra was given a new "piggyback" head to help her grow a new head of hair after she was in an horrific burns accident as a toddler.

Doctors were able to remove the gel-filled balloon implanted under her scalp 10 month earlier and pull the new skin down over Sidra's burnt head.

"Quirky" relationship stories also went down well with this website's viewers.

In January, it was revealed a foster mother from the south Wales valleys had has a baby with a refugee from Kosovo, who she took in when he was just 14.

Then at the end of the year it emerged that Julia Gregg, 34, who was divorced from her former husband, had recently married Krenar Lleshi, with whom she had baby Hattie.

In April, it was also revealed how a south Wales man proposed to an American he met on the internet - just four minutes after flying 4,000 miles to meet her at Chicago.

Father-of-two Carl Dockings said he and Danielle had fallen in love before even exchanging photos of one another.

They are now happily settled in Newport and have a baby daughter, Isabel.

A transatlantic journey the other way three months later brought only red faces.

We revealed how a teacher flew home from Canada to a friend's wedding. Only it was a year too early.

Dave Barclay thought the wedding was on 6 July 2007 - not 2008 - and admitted his mates had some merriment at his mistake.

In October, you were interested in the story of the 23-seat cinema in an old railway carriage finally closing after 50 years.

The last screening at La Charrette, in electrician Gwyn Phillips' back garden in Gorseinon near Swansea, was Ocean's 13.

One of the favourite stories of 2007 is one from December about the advertising watchdog rejecting 21 complaints about a commercial which featured a Welsh team in a quiz show.

Complainants said the advert for Welsh firm Brecon Five's vodka presented Welsh people as of low intelligence.

It showed a student at the "Valley College of Further Education" correctly identifying the philosopher Kierkegaard's beliefs with the answer: "Existentialism, innit!"

Then followed a voiceover that said: "That's not what you'd expect from Wales".
