My paternal grandparents lived in Looe. My paternal grandfather died when I was very young. We went to the beach at Talland quite a lot.

The British Commonwealth is still a much bigger thing than people realize, I believe. Soft power is real and royal. People are going to care.
I have been to Newcastle several times before they shut the ferry down. I think the people there rubbed off on me, so Iām probably at least 2% British.

Oi! You got a license for that gif?
This is true especially for Britain, where the spread of the Beaker culture introduced high levels of steppe-related ancestry, resulting in a near-complete transformation of the local gene pool within a few centuries, to the point of replacement of about 90% of the local Neolithic-derived lineages.[35]
