Thread Name: welsh
Subject: RE: welsh
The saying about welshing on a bet does piss us off. I'm Welsh, from Swansea, South Wales and have more English relations through my sisters' marriages (I have 3 of them) than Welsh. In fact I know more Yorkshire people than Swansea people, Yorkshire and South Wales tend to have the same sense of humour. Prejudice wise I would say there are more narrow minded knobheads in Wales than there are in England. "As long as we beat England nothing else matters" Pillocks! Saw written on a pub wall in Greenock, Scotland: The Scots provide the verse The Irish provide the tune The Welsh provide the voice The English provide the audience
Dick, haven't seen for a while. Hopefully soon but not this weekend.
