In Wales, the veil between our world and the spirit world is a lot thinner, so they don’t need smartphones. A cup of strong fermented drink and a neolithic stone circle will suffice.

I mean, parts of Wales have a tradition of rap battling a horse skeleton for beer. Seems like you might be right.

Gwlad! Gwlad! Pleidiol wyf i'm gwlad.
Tra môr yn fur i'r bur hoff bau,
O bydded i'r hen iaith barhau.

Not “other”, but “none”. Wales still rocking the landline?

That's because the Welsh just sing to each other, in a soulful baritone, across the hills and valleys.

Having grown up in South Wales I'm of the opinion that you don't need a phone to communicate out here. If something important happens, every nan within the immediate area will instantly become aware of it and the information can be retrieved by visiting 'em.
