![](https://i2-prod.walesonline.co.uk/incoming/article15132287.ece/ALTERNATES/s810/0_GettyImages-918199366.jpg)
30. There's nothing to see
![](https://i2-prod.walesonline.co.uk/incoming/article15134233.ece/ALTERNATES/s810/0_GettyImages-514113666-2.jpg)
31. Nothing to do
![](https://i2-prod.walesonline.co.uk/whats-on/article11859463.ece/ALTERNATES/s810/zipsafari-12.jpg)

![](https://i2-prod.walesonline.co.uk/incoming/article15131621.ece/ALTERNATES/s810/0_GettyImages-829830546.jpg)
33. No one talented has ever come from Wales
![](https://i2-prod.walesonline.co.uk/incoming/article25199851.ece/ALTERNATES/s810/0_JS279740103.jpg)
34. And just struggling through their miserable lives
![](https://i2-prod.walesonline.co.uk/incoming/article22593447.ece/ALTERNATES/s810/0_Wales-Fanzone.jpg)
35. And no one important has ever visited
![](https://i2-prod.walesonline.co.uk/incoming/article10629412.ece/ALTERNATES/s810/0_JS45499090JPG.jpg)
36. Come to think of it, nothing important has ever happened in Wales

![](https://i2-prod.walesonline.co.uk/incoming/article24866982.ece/ALTERNATES/s810/1_CDF_200821_CF_Greenman_Festival_051JPG.jpg)
39. Wales is really small so there are no unspoilt open spaces
![](https://i2-prod.walesonline.co.uk/incoming/article15131584.ece/ALTERNATES/s810/1_GettyImages-821234688.jpg)
40. It's just a polluted, concrete jungle
41. So you'll never be able to gaze at the night sky

![](https://i2-prod.walesonline.co.uk/incoming/article15131610.ece/ALTERNATES/s810/2_GettyImages-492807394.jpg)
43. Or watch the sun go down
![](https://i2-prod.walesonline.co.uk/incoming/article15131624.ece/ALTERNATES/s810/0_GettyImages-860175656.jpg)
44. It rains all the time in Wales
![](https://i2-prod.walesonline.co.uk/incoming/article15134500.ece/ALTERNATES/s810/0_GettyImages-959275530.jpg)
45. Which is why Welsh people mostly stay indoors
46. The Welsh are constantly claiming it's a beautiful country
![](https://i2-prod.walesonline.co.uk/incoming/article15134386.ece/ALTERNATES/s810/2_GettyImages-1018779434.jpg)
