A couple of comments. I’ve just spent two weeks in the Caribbean & 95% of the other hotel guests were American, I spent many hours explaining where & what Wales is, the majority had no idea. Also smiled watching them poke, prod & reject Yorkshire puds with their Sunday lunches.
On a different note, I love genealogy & have managed to get back to 15th century roots. My great grandfather, moved from Durham to Splott with the Steel Works in the 1890s. Three of his siblings moved to Fairmont West Virginia & I have hundreds of relatives still there. A choice of Cardiff v WV. My heritage could be very different!
