I don't watch football.
And I am not Welsh
But are we excited? What do you think!!

Anniebach Wed 06-Jul-16 15:59:22

No chance Lully

chelseababy Wed 06-Jul-16 16:25:39

Looking forward to kick off, good luck Wales!

kittylester Wed 06-Jul-16 16:41:36

I like daffodils, my brothers were born in Wales and both my sons have Welsh names - does that count?grin

Jalima Wed 06-Jul-16 16:52:46

My granny had a Welsh surname and I have one now.
DH is half Welsh - DGD are learning Welsh
I have some leeks in the fridge I could wave around tonight
Does that count?
I think that makes me nearly as Welsh as some of the team!

The 'anyone but Murray' mindset doesn't appeal to me at all, although Portugal is very nice for a holiday grin

Anniebach Wed 06-Jul-16 16:58:12

It counts kitty smile

Jalima Wed 06-Jul-16 17:24:55

what about my leeks?
don't they count?

GandTea Wed 06-Jul-16 17:26:22

Mrs. P is half Welsh and i would play a Welsh made ukulele if I could afford it.
Will be shouting at the Tv.

I'm Norfik and we don't have a team. I support Wales, football and rugby. I also support England and Western Samoa as well for rugby as I'm really a rugby fan.

Go Wales! (Can we please have a dragon just for the match?)

dustyangel Wed 06-Jul-16 18:26:24

No! grin sorry Annieb, normally if/when England go out of a sporting event, I'll support any other country in Great Britain before all others. But this evening I will be eating in a Portuguese bar with Portuguese friends so tonight, " Eu sou Portugês.smile"

Anniebach Wed 06-Jul-16 18:44:07

Leeks and daffodils count, good wishes for Wales , count, I declare everyone - with the exception of dusty angel grin Welsh

I csn do this because I am sure I will find I am a direct descendant of Owain Glyndwr

suzied Wed 06-Jul-16 18:44:31

Go Wales! Let's have something to cheer. Just sweating watching Andy Murray at the mo.

Anniebach Wed 06-Jul-16 18:56:10

I am watching Murray too and am stressed, I do like Tsonga but win Andy , win

mrsjones Wed 06-Jul-16 19:10:36

Looking forward to another great game and may the best team win. (Wales of course).

Good Luck, Wales.

Linsco56 Wed 06-Jul-16 20:34:00

I wish Andy would get a wiggle on and finish his match so I can watch Wales play!

Anniebach Wed 06-Jul-16 20:35:50

I have the tennis on with sound off and listening to the football commentary on radio, I don't recommend this

Jalima Wed 06-Jul-16 21:44:11

And posting on here!!
I am not good at multi-tasking

I recorded the football, watched the tennis, then zipped through the football at top speed until half-time.

Linsco56 Wed 06-Jul-16 21:50:24

sad They did so well to reach the semi-finals...they did Wales proud!

NfkDumpling Wed 06-Jul-16 21:52:14

Bums! DH reckons it was because they weren't playing in red.

Anniebach Wed 06-Jul-16 22:01:51

Paham mae dicter,O Myfanwy,
Yn llenw'th lygeid duon dd?

sad

Linsco56 Wed 06-Jul-16 22:09:31

OK Annie....I don't understand even one syllable of that! grin

dustyangel Wed 06-Jul-16 22:18:02

Wow...just. Wow! Commiserations Annieb but I'm quite prepared to consider you Portuguese for the finals! smile
