I regard myself as Scots, but my ethnic origin is Norse.. Danish as far as my great uncle Willy found out during his extensive research and ultimateley African. But I am really a male gender Homo Sapien Sapien. Anything else is just a line on a map at a particular time in history.

And as such is not really relevant... In the grand scheme of things

Cheers Garion

Nice article. But if you fail at penalties, you could also very well be Dutch. Ah well, next European Championships are up in a year from now. If the UK wins, Germany can claim part of the win. And the other wy around I guess...

I'm honored but no: the Anglos and the Jutes were Danish, the Saxons were Germans. In the (northern) Netherlands we had the Frisians. But that's just according to the countries as they are known now of course. After all we were all Barbarians! Arrrh!

Thanks.
You taught me something new (that I should have known).
