A friend told me that in a place called Wales (near England) they don't say 'cheers' when they have a drink but, instead, they say 'twll din pob Sais'
What does it mean

They were saying, "Let's hope the little to**er leaves soon and never comes back " LOL Seriously though, it sounds like it was one of the tactless Welsh insults. They speak in Gaelic when a stranger is around and insult him as they know that the stranger will not understand. However, once the stranger leaves, they speak in English again. It's the Welsh sense of humour!

twill din pob Sais is the same as cheers. Just a different any to say it. So say bottoms up or something like that in it's place.

A place called Wales ( as opposed to the Principality), is a village in South Yorkshire, and the toast there is "Sup up".

it's an insult to the English, 'sais' means English in the Welsh language.

Im not sure exactly what it means, Welsh cannot really be translated 'word-for-word' into English so you can't use online translation.

EDIT: I just found out what it means, not amused lol, check this link http://icwales.icnetwork.co.uk/0100news/0200wales/tm_headline=welsh-signwriter-takes-rude-pop-at-english-on-a-london-pub&method=full&objectid=19385281&siteid=50082-name_page.html
