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.

I’ve been trying for decades to trace my family name back to Cornwall.

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 I’m probably at least 2% British.

By the way, you have to go back a few generations in my family before anyone was an actual, official, publicly known Knight in it, I believe.

Maybe not genetically or mentally or such, but in financial reality, I’m basically a peasant.

Really? So the Brits are still angry over this? I don’t mean that in a rude way. I’m genuinely curious

In my opinion there are plenty of Brits on this forum. Especially compared to Belgians!

You outnumber us.

It was a joke. I don’t think many British people take any notice of it. I was taught about it in primary school though so it is a big thing the American Revolution.

Im not a fan of seeing our flag in schools and stuff. That kind of public nationalism is weird IMO. But I do like being a Brit.

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]
