I find this hilarious and irritating in equal amounts given I was in exactly the same situation here in wales a few years back.
An old fart reversed into our car while parking his and when we got out of the car I said to my hubbie "What is it about Wales and our car?" cause this was the third time someone had hit us in the space of a few months. At this point the blokes missus went mental shouting at me and in the middle of it all told me to "pi$$ of back to england where you belong" ahem......I'm Scottish....... and off she went again.
To add insult to injury we were chatting to someone about it and they agreed with the sentiment........
I'm sorry to the welsh lot on RS but I have never lived in a place where racism is so common

Racism is a relatively modern name for it.
Tis surprising tho since you have so much in common .... sheepshagging and suchlike.

Are you sure, I'd heard the Welsh hate the Welsh (geographically that is)

Erm, surely if he called her an 'English bitch' that's nationalism rather than racism? 'English' is not a race.
And why didn't he just call her bitch, stupid bitch, whatever? (presumably he was annoyed because her car was in the wrong place at the wrong time?)
The tragedy of old age is not that one is old, but that one is young.
