I've got 2 friends from North Whales and they both say that there is not much to do there except go to the pub.
Would someone care to translate?

I don't have to say anything!!
Just that fact that I am not welsh, but sometime work in wales is enough to cause a problem. Some welsh think that all work in wales should be done by the welsh. Therefore when it's not, they get stropy.
They can be funny like that!!
