I've never been to Aberdare but I love valley people. Salt of the earth and usually very funny. Good luck with your move over here xx

On that note, great things that came out of wales..

Beers such as Brains SA and Felinfoel

Numerous rugby greats.... too many to mention

He sold that house to a friend of mine about 10 years ago.

Oh and I'm the best thing to come out of Wales :thumbsup:

Not sure if anyone has done this yet but 'London' in Doctor Who and Sherlock is the best thing I've seen recently. The British Museum looks a lot like the Welsh Museum in Cardiff :P Oh and Clogau Gold!

Salt of the earth people and what about those beautiful mountains and the myths/legends? Fab stuff. The welsh versus English thing all seems a bit silly from a distance.
