Please bear in mind however that Scottish Gaelic was the language of rebellion here and it was persecuted to near extinction, whereas the Welsh have been pretty compliant to the Brits since Owain Glyndwr popped his clogs. When was the last time the tanks were rolled out on Cardiff btw? In Glasgow it was 1919, and Scottish soldiers were locked in Maryhill barracks incase they turned against the loyal English and Welsh. The Welsh had long since rolled over I'm afraid. Your idea that we aren't that much different to the English is utterly wrong. We have all of our institutions intact (educational, ecumenical, and legal) and Gaidhlig medium education is only about 40 years behind the Welsh equivalent (my children and my grandchildren will be fluent speakers) but hey, we always have the Scots leid if we ever want to slag off any English-folk that come into our shops ;-) . Our nationalist movement is considerably ahead of yours too and will hopefully prove to be successful without ever having to resort to violence again. All in all we're doing a bit better than Wales culturally and in most other respects - except for the fact that the standard of living in your Principality and the other economic basketcases (England and NI) is being maintained by the extraction of Scottish minerals when we could be a bit further away from our own breadline on our own. That's unfair unions for ye though. Apologies for that guy calling you a prick though. Nae need for that.

I R not amused. I've lost all the white sauce onto my plate and the carrot is just not as appealing anymore. And I'm down to the outsidey crusts on my plain bread. Gutted.

You really know how to talk to a lady don't you? But I suppose it's better then being a female, welsh, patronising bastard. I feel like I've moved up in your estimation, and that makes me happy. Honestly, you should see me clapping my little hands together in joy... Speaking a language no one else speaks? You mean like every other country with a national language? Thoughs pesky Germans muttering away, speaking in 'toungues'. Really, what's the point when no one else understands them? Apart from their fellow countrymen obviously. Welsh may only be spoken in certain areas of Wales (and Patagonia), but it's still used to communicate. We can even form sentances and chat with each other, and just because you don't understand it doesn't make it pointless. 'Stay in your shite non-contributing country...'? You've gotta be joking. Got outta there the minute I could. Place is full of bloody Welsh people. Prick Agb? You really know how to talk to a lady don’t you?

Calm the fuck down. The only thing I hate more than arguing over the internet is Wales, now. Whats the point in speaking a language no one else speaks? Isnt that contradicting the point of language itself, communcation? You stay in your shite non-contributing country speaking your toungues to each other and let us, the northern English, get on with inventing things. Prick.
