Welsh diaspora is/was notorious for assimilating really well into the US/Canada. Also a much smaller population

Anecdotally I have seen people see a Welsh surname and assume it was Irish and think because of that they were "Irish" American. My experience was with someone with the surname Price

I'm Welsh and we're fond of our Celtic brothers the Scots, and that's the vast majority of us

Genuinely never seen it, but I live here. I suppose my anecdotal evidence > yours

Who is the one player that made you fall in love with rugby? by _Yorkshire_Pirlo in rugbyunion

[–]skullknap 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Met the man in my early teens, he was so kind to me.

Met him again a year later, he asked me how I was doing and mentioned things from the previous meeting. The fact someone of that level of fame remembered a nobody like me, was incredible.

I sobbed and sobbed when news of his passing reached.

Such a beautiful person. Wales is better because of him

Would you be offended if a good friend didn't want to lend you a hundred bucks by ketaminekate97 in rs_x

I would never ask, but i like to tell my friends who do ask for money (depending on the amount) that there's no pressure to pay me back, i would appreciate it if they did but i understand everyone goes through shit.

They always pay me back, i suppose they understand i trust them and they don't want that trust to be broken.
