Because Great Britain includes Wales, which they regard as the Alabama of the UK. People on here do. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I drove through every square foot of it and no other place in Europe has such a variety of scenery in so small a space. The Welsh vastly prefer Americans to The English. Just like when I lived in Suffolk, I ranked higher among the locals than a Londoner. Grudge-wise, the English beat out even the Serbs. Their grudges and accents change every 20 kms headed north. I have English family living in some ex-coal mine slag heap of a town. Three generations later, they're still distinctly English and very anti-Welsh.

You mention 'their time' which is 6 hours behind Thailand. Listen to the phone in radio stations ie LBC or BBC 5 Live etc right now @ 09.53, and you will hear that there are many Brits wanting to talk.......but not to you unfortunately. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
