Inter community teasing Denise
There is a type joke in Britain that begins "there was an Englishman an Irishman and a Scotsman" for example (I have to quote as I am terrible at remembering jokes)
There are literally thousands of this type of joke at the expense of the the poor IrishmanAn Englishman, a Scotsman and an Irishman were without tickets for the opening ceremonies of the summer Olympics but hoped to be able to talk their way in at the gate. Security was very tight, however, and each of their attempts was met with a stern refusal. While wandering around outside the stadium, the Englishman came upon construction site, which gave him an idea. Grabbing a length of scaffolding, he presented himself at the gate and said, "Johnson, the pole vault," and was admitted. The Scotsman, overhearing this, went at once to search the site. When he came up with a sledge hammer, he presented himself at the gate and said, "McTavish, the hammer." He was also admitted. The Irishman combed the site for an hour and was nearly ready to give up when he spotted his ticket in. Seizing a roll of barbed wire, he presented himself at the gate and announced, "O'Sullivan, fencing."but the poor Welsh are in a class of their own they hardly ever even get a mention
I've only ever skirted the edge of Wales I should really visit the place now that I live quite close to it.
Still Wales gave us Tom Jones and the ladies seem to love him, it also gave us the late great Harry Seacombe of Neddie Seagoon fame whose catchphrase "Ying tong iddle I po!" is much beloved by our own dear Prince Charles.![]()

Read a little about the Goons and you get to understand the British a little better there is a little bit of the Goons in all of us Brits I think, even the serious minded ones, Spike Milligan who wrote most of the show was an absolute comic genius.
