Y'all can't even begin to talk about a mixed lineage. I'll just leave it that I am Northern European (large portion of British Isle) with some American Indian thrown in for seasoning.
Hold on, lads.....................I'm German too.................now, I'm talking about the Nuremberg incident. In fact, our family immigrated from Germany..............."I'll bite your other leg off!!!!"
That's a bit drastic Owen, it means you've got to team up with Brizzle Moi luvver ! Oh yeah in broad Bristolian "What aerial be you too then?" :p
Oh yeah in broad Bristolian "What aerial be you too then?" :p Owen, You should know by now that I don't ride an "Ariel" I have Nortons - and I've never owned a Ford Cortinal either, before you ask !
Or a pirate. So anyway, any cousin of the Queen tried at Nuremberg? Couldn't find a specific one on a cursory look. But with the several times removed complicated lineages of European royalty I perhaps wouldn't be too surpised.

My Great-Aunt is Wiltshire born and bred, she's 93 now. Her daughter married a Texan and moved over there. My Great-Aunt on one of her visits when her Grand-daughters were still at school visited their classes and spoke broad Wiltshire to them. It may as well have been a foreign language. Just reading this and thought it topical as the film of same name is just out. West Country dialects - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The Wessex dialect was the standard literary language of Anglo-Saxon England, and consequently the majority of Anglo-Saxon literature, including the epic poem Beowulf, is preserved in West Saxon dialects. Lee have a look at that page it shows how the Germanic West-Saxon language influenced modern English.
Interesting to see that you lot still call wasps wopses as well. The old East Surrey dialect does this and my Dad calls them that too. The area around the large white roundabout on the A23 if you travel north from junction 6 of the M25 is known as Wapses Lodge for this reason. Just to bring things back on topic, this part of the A23 was built in the late 1930s by a German Autobahn engineer and during the war years, it was suggested that the road alignment and the large concrete roundabout were designed to help the Luftwaffe find London (no talk of the River Thames leading them there from the coast !) The roundabout structure therefore received a coat of camouflage paint for the duration ! Any remaining vestiges of proper Southern dialect that I have will go with me. My kids speak English with a Flemish accent. Mind you, thanks to the British Army, I'm not fully English anyway - Great Grandfather was stationed on Gibraltar with the Royal Garrison Artillery and married Maria Vincento-Sainz. I don't know where the dark Latin good-looks went to though !
i already toad everybody what i think about the wiki think.an down yur we do call wasps,stokes.hence;i got bit by a stoke.yours very sincerely,lee.
