"Wales is a Different Country!"

The message is getting through!

On my way back to the promised land (Cymru), I changed buses at Bristol Coach Station. I had a National Express bus ticket through to Swansea but as I had time to spare I thought of making an enquiry regarding my Welsh concessionary bus pass.
At the enquiry office I aked the clerk whether I could use this concessionary pass to take a bus from Bristol to Newport, a local service. I was told no, because the pass I had was a Welsh bus pass. So I asked: "If I need to travel in England should I apply for a national pass valid for journeys in England?" The clerk replied: "No, you cannot get one if you don't live in England.Wales is a different country!" The message is getting through!

  2. No forum here mate. Plenty of swivel-eyed Nationalism though. You'll probably feel quite at home.

    swivel-eyed is better than fixed-stare zombie-like vaccuousness brought about by years of brain-washing.
