Gazboy Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 What do they eat in Wales that's so unhealthy? Fried everything. My grandparents lived in Tydfil for 6 long, horrible years, the place is a complete armpit and if it was nuked tomorow I'd dance in the street, it really is a complete shit-hole.

Sheefa Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 I'm surprised my local park in Knowle isn't down on there. Full of chav ass scumbags getting coked and meth'd up shagging 13/14 year old girls and putting fireworks up their arses whilst playing games like 'who can throw the dog shit the furthest'. On a positive note, good to see the Welsh are beginning to die more quickly. (Only joking.........) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 London!? What a crock. It's probably won on an obesity average due to the number of runaways, immigrants and tramps that are starving. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
