i am english, my husbnd so we are told is born in london of an irish mother (dont know if north or south) and a greek cypriot father. My children were born i scotland, but call themselves british. most of my ancestor names are scottish or irish, although I have only just metaphorically speaking stepped a toe into the borders.
