  1. The one really good thing about the advances in DNA in recent decades is that its finally scientifically destroyed any racial purity arguments. Its surprising how far our ancestors travelled in an age before ocean going transport. Although in the past couple of generations my roots are 'British' , somewhere down the line I know they'll be Scandinavian, French, and a whole host of other western Europeans, push further back eastern european pastoralists and fertile crescent farmers; not to mention our early homosapian ancestors from Africa, chuck in a bit of Neanderthal for good measure and you end up with C21st .... us. If I hadn't seen the picture of your granny I would have said there's quite a bit of Pictish in your features, dark eyes, pale skin and a slighter frame than the more Gaelic side of celtdom, but I'm quite sure you're cool with whatever admixture of regions your ancestors were from. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
