Hey guys, sorry for pinning this comment on all videos but I want to give you an update on the channel. I've been slowly adding a show archive to the videos including a full transcript added as sub titles and a full track listing (with links to KZread videos for each track). Pilkipedia archive link has been added as well and I've been having fun illustrating some of KP's best bits, I'm adding these to a shop incase anyone is interested: www.man-moth.com/ It's taking me a while to update the archives, especially as I don't work Mondays so please bear with me as I chip away at it. Lots of love, Man Moth.

"I don't know what I look like, and I quite like that. Do you know what I mean? It's just- believe me on this. I'm right. It's best if you leave it."

I'm Welsh and I grew up in Wales, I agree with Karl that Wales can be a bit dull, grey and depressing, especially out west where it's very rural. In some ways it is a bit like going back to 'the good old days ' and I think this is partly why so many older people from England come to retire in Wales (along with cheaper housing). However, that said, I'd much rather live in Wales than London.
