I think I heard something like 'pa brechdanau sut da chi" in a siop yesterday. I’m guessing it’s safe to assume he was asking “what sandwiches do you have” but I’d just like confirmation because literally I understand it quite differently.
yup, sounds like you’re assuming correctly 
Just out of interest, what led to the doubt? how did you understand it?
Thanks Siaron
It was just the ‘Sut da chi’ that threw me. I’ve only heard that as 'how are you" previously.
It’s possible that what you heard was 'sydd ‘da chi’, the 'da being a contraction for gyda - the southern word used for possession.

yes, what Karla said - sydd is often shortened to sy, so when followed by 'da it can sound almost the same as sut because the t on sut kind of gets swallowed by the d on da! (try it - sut da chi / sy 'da chi 
)

Thanks everyone. I’m over in the hills above Harlech camping. I’ve found only a minority of shops here are Welsh speaking. Maybe I’ll have more luck at the ice cream shop yfory.

If you spot a couple of old dears skinny dipping tomorrow, please go the other way!
@Nadip you seem to have a good pitch for your tent, what with skinny dippers of all vintages lurking and providing tantalising glimpses. I read it at first as being over the moon, or are you suggesting you are “over the hill”, in some sense “past caring”?
All I can say is lovely pics from both of you.
