    One of the the best,FACT

    As national anthems go my favourites are the French and the Welsh now i know many living in the principality have been anglicised over the years and do not even recognise Wales as their country of origin however they still have a brilliant anthem.

    My favourite French version

    Its fair to say the Welsh singing below are very much Welsh where nationalist tendencies are growing by the year .

    In the past at the Edinburgh Tattoo & Breamar Gathering I upset a few people because I refused their wishes to stand and be respectful to their queen. For the record I will stand at other nations anthem.

    When i was in the army in West Germany i had a great night out in the REME club in Hohne however the evening ended badly when i refused to stand for the English National Anthem and i was thrown out and NEVER invited back..
    I never regretted my actions and would still follow the same path today.
