Top Ten Ways for the English to Annoy the Welsh

I hold nothing against our loopy neighbours. I'm part Welsh myself, and proud. But we love to make jokes about each other. Observe.

The Top Ten

Walk Down the Streets of Wales In a Chinese Dragon Suit

If you feel that you have to, go ahead. But you have been warned.

Constantly Refer to Them As "Boyo"

I love the Welsh! But they seem to lose their sense of humour whenever people say this to them. Can't think why...

Give Them a Sheep As a Present

Ask Them "T'a Way T'a Carriff"

Refer to Them As Sheep-shaggers

Leave a Model 15th Century Castle On the Porch

Eat Nothing But Lamb Stew
