Very British.

Is this serious and true? If so, it forces to think you make quite an interesting specimen.Quote:

A little bit more Englishman... - My (lots and lots of greats) grandfather was William Harvey, who discovered circulation of the blood and was King Charles the First's physician.
Probably some Welsh, as I have a Welsh surname.
And no Irish so far as I know.
...and yet here I am, sitting a house in dingy Aberdeen, and not in a great estate somewhere in England :P -My family seems to have a big tradition of losing large amounts of money before their children can inherit it. Eliab Hardy lost a fortune gambling, and my Great, great uncle lost a massive estate and mansion because he didn't have any sons. Stupid 19th Century sexism...
I only have Belgian beer in my veins.
Most of all I'm a Aussie!
I am part Irish and English as well. Also a bit of Scottish.
But I am most proud of being AUssie and Irish.
Depends, my maternal grandma came from eastern prussia, so that's german, my dad's family is from the Netherlands but they may have german roots, so...
German/Irish/Scottish
All the terdditional enemies of England: Scotland, France and IrelandQuote:

But I'm 100% Canadian! ~:smoking:
American mutt, with a lot of the British Isles as a backdrop (Irish, Scottish, Welsh, etc.).
:portugal: :norway: :spain: :england: yet somehow wound up a Virginian with :australia: citizenship but at the end of the day, 100% :unitedstates:.
English and a lot of early Australian blood (Which is still English, but whatever). I also am 1/8 Hungarian.
50% Italian (From a small farming village over the mountains near Naples)
25% German (Dresden)
12.5% Irish (No Clue Unforunately)
12.5% Welsh (Again, No Clue Unforunately)
Mostly :england:, :ireland: and :spain:. But also :wales:, :portugal:, :germany:, :southafrica: and :namibia:.
I can trace my English relatives back to a man who lived in 1208, some peasant. ~D
Edit: I'm not African though. Just my family were crazy settlers. :shrug:
My great-great grandmother =:gibraltar: Her Husband =:scotland: They had kids born in = :england: (my grandads mother) After that all the family were born in =:england:
Except my kids and grandkids who were born in https://img442.imageshack.us/img442/2963/gbenysai4.gif
:beam:
As for as I know, I don't have anything else than good old inbred norwegian blood in me.
Not too surprising though, as I'm extremely blonde, and my eyes are blue...
:england: :germany: :austria:
'Tis true, I am more German than English.
As for as I know it's limited to :netherlands: and :unitedstates:
:balloon2:
100% Human.:balloon2:
As far as I know, only Dutch. And 50% Frysian :balloon2:
