I mentioned "not finding English DNA" in my recent test. A friend pointed out that there IS no specific English DNA. The English haven't been "English" long enough for that. As Americans and Australians haven't.
Aw man, I should have realized that... So I'm, 43% German and French because that's where the "English" came from. And the 38% Scot and Welsh is the interesting part. The minor parts Iberian and Middle East are probably from when the Moslems came across North Africa and conquored Spain and my Southern French ancestors inter-married.
The Balkan part is still really interesting, though.
Daffodils, Trash, And Old Electronics
I finally got about 3/4 of the daffodils planted. I have a front yard island bed surrounding the Saucer Magnolia tree and a 3' boulder ...

Ah - yes. Of course. Australian Aboriginals would argue with you about 'being Australian'. Their culture is more than 50,000 years old. But yes, I know you were referring to the white folk.
