Introducing the Taffia

You've heard of our Italian cousins, the Mafia? Well, we're the Taffia. The difference? 1) The Mafia tend to be papists and we're Calvinists and 2) We're Welsh. Got it? The point is this, dis the Welsh and we put you in our black book. So if you don't fancy sleeping with the fishes, lay off the late great Doctor Martyn Lloyd-Jones, Derek Thomas and any other Welsh evangelicals. We know where you live. Capiche, boyo?

"Capiche, boyo?"

How delightfully paradoxical!

Its a nice blog gimmick, but I encourage you to abstain from becoming the theo-blogosphere's "button men".

A Welsh pastor told me that Trueman came to his house asking for favours on the day of his daughter's wedding! And Trueman had never even invited this man to his house for a cup of coffe, or let him borrow a Banner of Truth book!

I'm tempted to make some jokes about a counterpart Northern Irish gangster family, but unfortunately it could lead to libel proceedings given the plethora of them we have over here!!

Respect to the family!

He sure got it coming to him isn't it. What about doing a chopped leek job on Dydd Gwyl Dewi ?

It's not as dramatic as a horse's head, but it's smellier.
