Friday was St David's Day, but Mark was on the The Mark Steyn Caribbean Cruise sailing north from Costa Maya and thus more preoccupied with Mexicans and British West Indians and suchlike than with the Welsh. Last St David's Day fell on the midweek all-stars' edition of The Mark Steyn Show, and so Mark began with some appropriate Welsh observances: Happy St David's Day to all our Welsh viewers. Will you please rise for the Welsh national anthem? ["Delilah" plays] Oh no, wait, sorry, that's no longer the Welsh national anthem. They banned it from the rugby.
