I'm guessing there is a significant shortage of beef in Wales?

I dunno. If whales have bulls, cows and calves there might be some beef within the blubber.

Getting back to the beef crisis, if the Welsh Corgi is your cattle herding breed, the cattle must be really puny, ergo a beef shortage,

The day after this story broke I went into the Eagle, CO Burger King and they were out of chicken. This has to be a grand conspiracy!!
