Obviously, but the point was that the only nice places in Wales feel like England anyway, but for the stupid road signs.

Please explain why they feel like England? :confused:

I'd argue the nicest places in Wales aren't the big cities, but the more rural mountains, where they certainly do not feel English. In fact I have trouble holding conversation in Welsh with these areas as they really do speak faster than I'm used to.

Bigoted Welsh ones. I experienced this when walking in the Welsh mountains for my D of E award.

Are you kidding me? You're resorting to Mum joke attacks? Have you read your posts.... They are full hate!! I never said once that i hated English people?

There is no hatred, only amusement, at the attitude of the union hangers-on to Englishmen getting behind their World Cup team. Not having met your mum I would have thought that even you would be able to take that one on the chin, but you have failed to explain your irrational and obvious hatred of the English so I will have to assume that I was correct.

The only possible reason for the embittered Welsh, Scots, and Irish wishing failure to the English team at the World Cup and taking the pee out of the English for wishing their country success, is jealousy, full stop.
 
I'm English and I like South Wales, family live there they're not Welsh but moved there a long time ago now.

Haters gonna hate...etc etc

Listening to a similar conversation some years I overheard that indeed the English do kill dragons but the Welsh, well, they marry them. :D

Of course I could be wrong?

I have no idea, I was just creasing over laughing at the people taking it seriously and the guy that mentioned it in a way as if it actually happened, really tickled me how serious people were getting

Internets, serious business

They all speak English for a start. Cardiff is the nicest town in Wales and I don't think I've ever heard a resident there speaking Welsh. Then there's the road signs, the pub menus, the number of English people living there, shop owners all have English accents (or Indian), you drive on the left, its culture just feels English...

I'm going to guess it's something personal about you rather than all the pubs ;)

Yes, I gleemed that that was your opinion, from your comment:

just so long as you're not a dick.

It really is quite obvious, there's no need to judge others by your own poor standards of perception.

Besides, if walking in with a backpack and asking for a coke is intolerable in a Welshman's eyes, then I going to guess that you're wrong and that it was bigoted rather than personal.

Bitter and jealous, can't they just let bygones be bygones? The English have managed it with the Germans and that was only 65 years ago!

Just lol.

An Englishman who lives in England telling us Welsh people that our best areas "feel English".

I always thought you were a royal arse and really you've just proved it.

Nice use of the word 'bigot', you'd know all about it judging by your posts thus far in this thread. :rolleyes:


Oh and I must say, I don't agree AT ALL with the OP, English flags on chocolate bars, who the hell cares.
 
I hate that theres England all over the TV adverts, I support and love England and hope they win but am sick of all the damn adverts. I mean if I wanted to buy mars bars (which I don't), I don't need to see an England flag or whatever on the packaging, it makes no difference what so ever.
