From the Isle of Skye
I'm no very big and I'm awful shy
And the lassies shout when I go by
Belbulon, where's your troosers?

father went off to sea when he was very young, but thats all
I know really, its sad in a way that I know so littler,
perhaps there isnt much to know

dunn = brown (dad) and bradbury = broad man of the field
(mum). all farmer stock. it was sandiford and longbottom
before that but the story goes my great-great gran (i think)
was so embarrassed by it she changed it to longworth

afaik there is Dutch, Irish and German in me. Besides my
German grandmother, I think my people have been here on the
southern tip of Africa for a few hundred years, so not
unlikely I might have a bit of Khoi or Zulu in me. One of
these days I’ll sell my dna information to truly know.
Technically speaking South African.... we’re a very mixed
bunch. Nation states are as real as we make them.

Yeah Dna would be quite fascinating i noticed i have some
traits with my mother, there is a slightly larger gap
between my index and middle finger, its not noticeable
unless you look for it, both my mother and brother have it
but my dad didn't, I have mums blood type as well, so does
my brother. at my dads funeral my uncles said how much I
looked like my dad when he was young, which freaked me out
alot

im italian, my mum was italian from the puglia region and
she grew me up, i was born here in the north, never had a
real willing of taking the egyptian nationality, basically
because there was never a serious relationship with my
father, who left when i was 2

I think Italian ancestry is particularly prestigious, just
think of all the roman emperors and philosophers and poets
you could be related too

Also Egyptian, i know you didnt get on with your dad,
perhaps his parents were better people. Just think of the
monuments the colossal monuments Egyptians built. The more
or less invented modern civilization. So to have Roman and
Egyptian ancestry is ace i reckon. When your ancestors were
living in big cities and literate mine were still in mud
huts

My grandfather said we fought the Romans in Malta and won.
Sounds like a bullshit myth. Lol. The myth was that the
Romans struggled in the hills.

Imagine living in ancient Greece or Rome and moaning about
Greek Supremacy or Roman Supremacy... You'd be killed for
treason...

You cisgendered Greek! You transphobic Roman! Hehe.

my great grandfather on the silesian side was a cooper, who
died in the second world war. my grandma, his daughter, had
to flee from the russians after the war was over. her bigger
sisters got raped by russian soldiers and my grandma was
threatened by a drunk general with a gun when she was 5. she
was fleeing for a whole year to the northest part of germany
where i was born. i remember her telling me that one day she
saw a dead horse lying in the middle of the street, which
was something that struck her heavily

she had to leave their parents house over night. it belongs
to some polish people now. she went back 50 years later with
her sisters and knocked on the door. she asked the owners if
she could go in the attic. her doll that she hid 50 years
ago was still there.
