Wales

In the beginning, the Lord God Almighty, turned to his best mate, the Archangel Gabriel and said, 'Gabriel, today I am going to create a beautiful part of the Earth and I will call it Wales'.
'I will make a country of breathtaking blue lakes, rich green forests and dark beautiful mountains which from time to time will be snow covered'.
'I will give it clear, swift rivers which will overflow with salmon and trout. The land shall be lush and fertile on which the people can raise cattle and grow their own food as well as being rich with precious metals and stones that will be much sought after the world over'.
'Underneath the land shall lay rich seams of coal for the inhabitants to mine. Around the coast I will make some of the most beautiful areas in the world, white sandy beaches and cliffs that will attract all manner of wildlife and lots of islands that will be like a paradise to all who visit them In waters around the shore there will be abundance of sea life. The people who live there will be called the Welsh and will be the friendliest people on Earth'.
'Excuse me Sire', interrupted the archangel Gabriel, 'Dont you think that you are being a bit generous to these Welsh?'
'Don't talk rubbish', replied the Lord, 'Wait till you see the neighbours I'm giving them'.
