    Chobart, the most popular white Camellia is Lady Vinsittart, which, because of the recent mild weather, could be flowering now. Cajary, Paula, do you know why Welsh farmers wear wellies? [​IMG] [​IMG] :D :D . John, you have obviously discovered our wonderful Welsh whiskey and Vodka. :D :D

    Despite the 90% Welsh hooch, shouldn't this tart be a vansit not a vinsit? Or have I bought the wrong one again? [​IMG] :D

    John, I sit corrected, with head bowed, in shame at getting the spelling wrong. Ladies and gentlemen, I apologise, it should be C Lady Vansittart. I am now off to stick needles into an effergy of Sarra. :D :D [​IMG]

    Dai, I know why they wear wellies. Back in the '60s and 70's I played a lot of rugby and had to know all the jokes to substitute for the fact that they kept hammering us. :D

    I'm not saying anything naughty but when Bob's Welsh grandad found himself a 'woman' he legged it out of wales.....I don't think it had anything to do with sheep although in later life he did so enjoy being outside in his wellies! :D
