Use of the word 'Friend' = Not true story.Originally posted by TestMangler View PostTrue story !! A friend of mine (who's from Yorkshire) worked in and lived in a little steel village in South Wales in the early 70's and when he moved he was 'shunned' to say the least. Someone told him to learn a bit of welsh and greet the locals in their native tongue. One Sunday morning, he was out walking his dog when he walks past a car, up on ramps, with overalled legs sticking out from underneath. He shouted a hearty greeting in welsh, to be met by a loud gruff scots accent from under the car, saying "F**k off you welsh c**t" !

FTFY. :-)Originally posted by The Spartan View PostTo be fair I've never experienced that, but then it could be because I'm really Welsh looking so people tend to not light my fuse
