I'll match my education and qualifications to yours any day of the week.

Why are we even wasting our time? :conf:

She made up for lost time when she got out though, didn't she. So I reject your claim about the Welsh. My experience is that you get an equal number of idiots wherever you go.

I agree give this one up. The Welsh housemates have been superior in action and deed. Clearly they have stronger values than their counterparts from the rest of the UK.

Because it amuses me to poke the troll... Up to a point. Kind of bored with it now though.

Obviously if you were in the house the opinion of Welsh people would change given your haughty, superior manner.

You're quite right SM, on the whole I really quite like Wales and the Welsh. It's whiney flag-wavers I can't stand...

I think you are 100% wrong. Go to downtown Krakov or Kabul or frankly anywhere and each place is different as is its people and its culture. Different places have different culture and different sets of values. To claim everywhere is much the same , when everywhere is in fact different with 1000s of years of different history, culture and values is absurd. This is partly where the british empire went pear shaped. we thought everyone thought like us and that we could impose our values on others. well we couldn't and we cant. Everywhere is different and we should learn to respect those differences not patronise cultures and ignore other ways of thinking.

Actually, my family only came to England after the war. None of us had anything to do with the Empire and my family are still scattered across several countries. I've lived and worked in a few countries too, including the USA.

What I meant about people all being the same has nothing to do with their culture. People are people are people... some good, some bad.

You're allright. But there is stupendous levels of ignorance in England which the masses are hopelessly unaware of. the masses simply are not educated enough in the culture of their fellow UK nations. Does anyone really know how we managed to rule the waves?

Sarcasm is sexy. Cliched , hackneyed quips are the lowest form of wit. I feel like I'm being waterboarded trying to read your silly, shit posts.
