Great pics and stories, and i am hoping for more to come.
What I was always wondering about, is the guys here who are living in the UK and having Russian roots. Ethnic Russians living in the US or Canada do not surprise me, because those are the classic immigration countries. We also have a bunch of Russian speaking folks here in Germany, who are Ethnic Germans and thus can apply for a German passport anytime, like e.g. so-called Wolga-Germans who once moved to Russia at times of Catharine the Great. How comes that people with Russian roots move to the UK?
Is it familiy ties or is is because the UK is probably also a classic immigration country within Europe or whatever reason it is?
IF you don't mind, I would like to hear more about family backgrounds.

Part of my family were French Hugenots who settled in Prussia; so much for my family background.
