Actually, the island still retains the name "Britain" from Unnamable's ancestors. The tribe that brought tea and crackers to Britain are erroneously called "Brits", even though only the so-called "Welsh" rightly claim the name. The Saxons, who came and bestowed the name "Welsh" upon the Brits, who were previously known as "Cymru", adapted a term, "woelisc", meaning "foreigner", to the original inhabitants of Britain, but it is the Saxons and Angles that are the real foriegners by comparison - thus, would you not mind accepting my suggestion that you are "Welsh"?

Nonetheless, I like the English just fine (just not their modern, self-deprecating ideas, that weaken their own security, and that of Wales with theirs).
