I've no idea if the call is genuine, but I did wonder if it was made by the same team who made this obviously prank call to an Asda in north London.

Tesco's is cheaper - prank call to Asda.

The upside down pizza is hilarious. Although, being an American, I had to listen very hard to understand his Scottish accent. Still, hilarious.

Err, I don't think they speak with a Scottish accent in South Wales.

The United Kingdom is very progressive - we've allowed Scottish people to have cars for quite some years now, and we built the M6 to let them travel south of Hadrian's Wall, and the A5 and M4 to let them into Wales.

Indeed, as long as they don't mind people shooting arrows at them occasionally as they travel through England, they can go where they like! And if they avoid York they can probably minimise that risk anyway.

Definitely a Welsh accent, though.

And yet...when I was a boy, working at the steelworks between Middlesbrough and Redcar, there were two Scottish fitters: a Glaswegian called Jock (who had been there since Middlesbrough was a farm), and an Aberdonian who had worked previously at the steelworks in Port Talbot; and was consequently called Welsh Jock.

It took me some time to discover that phrases like look you and my butty, ach y fi and dirty weekend in Builth Wells are not native to the Doric speaker.
