Pinochio out...

Shouldn't it be Packetcheeno.....isn't that his nick name? Or even just tino or even Cheeno .....no?
 
I thought it was going to be Poch -> Posh. That would be good. Although Peterborough might go on the offensive, especially after that Spice Girl thought she had the original copyright. Has anyone asked P&O..?

Not many of them, it's only a small region in Patagonia that was colonised (if you can call it that) by the Welsh. Gabriel Heinze is a Welsh speaker though, bizarrely.
 
Anyone who doesn't know the name should do lines to learn his name off by heart.

There are over 100,000 British passport holders resident in Argentina, i believe this is the highest number in any country outside of the Commonwealth. The railways, telecoms, frigorifico's ( meat works ), etc were all initially installed and run by British companies.
The Welsh miners settled in some parts of Patagonia in towns like Trelew, where the Sunday services in some churches are still conducted in Welsh.
As you say Chilco the majority of Argentinian's are of Spanish & Italian descent with every other European country thrown into the mix.

If thats the case, shouldnt we be getting the Sun to put adverts in Argie papers claiming Argentina as our own rather than the Falklands :P
