So what do you class yourself as?

Now I'm not asking for any fights for the rights and wrongs of this, I don't want any English/Scotish/Wales Fueds starting its an honest question? What do you think your self as? I think I'm British!

Apologies if I think I've missed anyone

And if Northern Ireland ISN't Part of the United Kingdon anyway I do apologise, My Geography is pants!

Just so you know I've put the pole in Alphabetical order nothing to do with the first being the best on anything!

How about 'British, but consider myself British?'

My Mum's side of the family are of Irish stock (which explains a lot...

), but my Dad's side are English.

I've never really seen the point behind borders in the UK as it's such a small place to start with and presumably there's loads of 'cross fertilization' that's been going on amidst the border towns anyway which would blur the lines somewhat?..

I reckon that makes me a member of the British Isles...

paddlefoot · Apr 16th, 2002, 08:29 AM

I think I push the description "other" to the limits...

Born and raised in NZ to Swiss/Spanish Mum, Irish/English Dad, (plus a Latvian/Austrian stepdad for a bit as well) I've lived in the UK off and on now for 12 years. Does that make me Swirkiwilish?
