Becoming an Honorary Welshman

[Butts]

Can anyone give me any advice how I may achieve the above precluding any of the below

1. An unnatural proclivity towards bovine genitalia

2. A culinary appreciation of leeks

3. A liking for communal singing somewhat reminiscent of caterwauling

4. A liking for a sport that uses a spherical rather than round ball

5. An appreciation of indecipherable place names and language

Celtic culture is not as advanced within all it's outposts around the British Isles

With intelligence like that you may get away with claiming you're from Rhyl . You could always move back to the Midlands and claim you're drinking Welsh rainfall

Are you an expert on number one ?

If your name is Wallace it means 'Welshman' so you've got your link. If it's not, bad luck.

I'm Gromit actually

People in some parts of Scotland used to speak Welsh many years ago, fortunately we have not retained that or a desire for carnal knowledge of bovines whilst wearing "Hunters"

A lot of Farmers in Wales have to fit their ewes with chastity belts, the Rams don't get a look in otherwise

I believe that the requirements for the title of Honorary Welshman include the ability to drink 20 pints of Brains SA between midday and 2200 on any Saturday in Cardiff without being sick.

This is why there are very few Honorary Welshmen. Or women.

I shall have to confirm this with the appropriate body, but I also believe it's necessary to know all of the words to at least 8 Max Boyce songs, including at least one from the holy trinity of 'Duw, It's Hard', 'Hymns and Arias' and 'The Pontypool Front Row'.

Did you overlook the "bovine" aspect of Welsh Culture ?

 

[Greenback]

Yes, deliberately, as ordered by the judge.

If you don't mind me asking, was one under a stage of inebriation whilst concocting this post .

Every language, including English, is indecipherable if you don't speak it.

If you mean what I think you do, then the word is 'ovine', not 'bovine'. Bovine proclivities require the use of a step-ladder.

Ah someone has spotted the deliberate mistake () - you are obviously a connoisseur in these matters. Is there any truth in the rumour that a step ladder is a permanent fixture within the confines of your car

No, I can't use that excuse for my moronic ramblings :roll:

We'll bow to your obvious experience...

Don't forget if you want to an honorary South Walian you need to learn to pronounce "here" in the correct manner!

Will a plaintive cry of "fi oedd yno" count for anything.....or shall I have to go back to my study of Patagonian Welsh...

At my old college (Jesus, Oxford - Coleg Jesu, Rhydychen) there was a group called the "Society of Whales", qualification for which involved downing 12* pints of bitter in an evening. One week the bar had Theakston's Old Peculier as a guest beer - after which it was banned because the Whales all fell asleep after 4 pints.
* If my memory serves.

Good beer that, even I can only manage about 6 pints of it
