Nothing personal Mam, but Dylan was using the expression to make a point about the difference with considering himself Welsh and not British.

He writes: "Although I appreciate our shared histories [with England] and understand our peoples have strong cultural links, nonetheless we also have our cultural independence."

Meanwhile, Alusia has been explaining about 'Little Poland', a community in Manor Place on the Wrexham-Shropshire border which sprang up around the Polish hospital & camp in Penley at the end of WWII.

She explains: "I was brought up as a Polish child. However, integration into the English way of life became more prevalent when I started school and started to speak English."

I'd be interested to know what the influx of migrant workers - our newest residents - make of the place and whether they see it as Welsh, British, English or European. What do you reckon?
