Despite being brought up in the UK. I am entitled to dual citizenship -British and Irish - as are my many children.

England is no longer the country I once knew. There were no immigrants around when I was a kid, now there are hardly any natives. I feel ashamed sometimes to tell people I am British! The newspapers are full of crime reports relating to "British" citizens bearing unpronouncable names, and where pictured looking nothing like a Brit. I therefore prefer to associate myself with the Emerald Isle whose only crime for the past 100 years has been trying to evict the Brits, who stole the north from them.

You are a soldier of fortune, Sir !

Next thing we will no doubt hear is that you have found that a great Aunt had a fling with Ryan Giggs' granddad and you now want play right back for Wales.

Fcuking butterfly !!

I did once have a girlfriend called Blodwyn. Will that be sufficient?

Probably, ..... for the Welsh F.A.

... and well done you, for admitting that you had a girlfriend called Blodwyn.

That is information that I would have taken to my grave, rather than admit it on an Internet forum.

What's in a name? It was the rest of her that I was interested in and as I recall I was not disappointed!

Where is Usa? If you are talking about the good old U.S. of A., then you should write U.S.A or USA. You would not write Uk for the United Kingdom!

You should write the USA.
