And for those of you with a Welsh heritage:
One day the King of England was out riding with his army through the Welsh countryside. Suddenly a Welshman popped out from behind a thicket and yelled, "One Welshman is worth two Englishmen!" The King laughed and sent two of his best men into the thicket after the Welshman. After a brief wait, the Welshman stuck his head out of the thicket again and shouted, "One Welshman is worth 10 Englishmen!" Feeling somewhat irritated, the king ordered 10 of his men into the thicket. A short while later, the Welshman again came out and announced, "One Welshman is worth a hundred Englishmen!" With a curse, the King ordered 100 of his best soldiers into the thicket. Sometime later, a single English soldier, nearly dead from the beating he had taken, crawled from the thicket and exclaimed, "Your Majesty, its a trap! There are TWO of them in there!"
