    Sutmae, Jean and Jason. I'm a little late coming to this quiz as I've only just found you. I'm rather chuffed to say for an old English girl I didn't do too badly, 15/20. I do know more about this beautiful country than I thought, though some were guesses. I was gutted to get the tallest mountain question wrong. I learnt the story of Gelert when I was on holiday in Harlech, back in 1977 and to this day it's still one of the saddest stories I know. I tried to tell my granddaughters about Gelert and couldn't get through it without breaking into tears. I so enjoyed doing this quiz. Thank you so much 🙂 Annie C.

    When my daughter was about 7 years old, we held a pot luck luncheon for several friends. One of the guests volunteered to bring Welsh Rabbit. I assumed he meant rarebit. He didn’t; he meant a rabbit dish he’d learned while living in Wales. My poor daughter looked at the disjointed rabbit pieces in cream sauce and across the yard to her rabbit hutch with her pet bunnies bopping around in it, and back again. She became a vegetarian for almost a year after that.
    I got 15 out of 20. Does that mean I can sell up and get the heck out of Texas?

    Firstly: Helo i dy fam, S’mae Gene! I live in the U.S. so let’s talk grilled cheese. Even though you can make a melted cheese sandwhich grilled, griddled, or broiled in an oven like most Welsh Rarebit; “Grilled Cheese” are called grilled because they were made on the most common cooktop in American dinners. A grill. Now, I dont know if thats a fact or if its just something which makes sense to my Cymro mind. Either way, there you have it! A plausible explanation from a Welsh person who may be right, might be wrong, but who cares? Americans are weird. Ha! Cymru am byth! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 Enjoyed this quiz. Scored 17/20 just like you and your mam. Hwyl!

    This quiz video was fun and I respect that you included your mother, Miss Jean. I scored 16/20 and failed in the sports and the newer political figures. In older American English, "grilled" and "skillet toasted" were synonymous. My father is Welsh, but my mother is Native American and our people call a skillet or frying pan a "spider," from the days before we had proper kitchens and cooked food on camping gear. The handle appeared as the head, the roundness its body and the wire legs it rested on its legs. The prominent city in our tribal territory is called Pembroke. Patagonia was chosen in favor of America because it had become apparent that Welsh immigrants to America lost their language and culture within a generation.

Put butter on the outside of the bread & cheese in the middle of the two slices & fry in a pan. But, with the invention of the Airfryer...No butter needed, cheese between the bread & pop into the airfryer. I do love Welsh Rarebit too!

    You could do grilled cheese on a grill (or even a panini press if you want), it's just easier and more convenient to do in a frying pan most of the time! Not sure why exactly the name settled on grilled cheese in the first place I just know it's good!
