Any South Wales people on here? What does the term pouting mean to you?

I'm trying to follow a conversation with my mother (who monotones at me and doesn't need me to actually respond).

She's talking about how her brother in law - who is knocking on 70 - is 'pouting' over the gift she bought for him. Apparently it's a computer tablet and it's an insult to him as he's surrounded by people 'sucking up his broadband'.

Said BIL (my Uncle) is a bit of an entitled manbaby so is 'pouting' South Walleian for sulking?

I can't interrupt my mother to ask and she doesn't care anyway.

Haha pouting means sulking everywhere (as well as doing the fish lips to the camera).
