Went to my Grandads 90th birthday on Saturday and aside from the many blood relatives that I haven't seen for 20 years or so, my Uncle had been working hard on the Family tree and had amazingly progressed back to the 1700's.

Not only that but my great great great great great great Grandfather on my dad's side was buried in a churchyard not to far away, so I went to have a look..

Standing by his, my great great great great great great Grandmothers, and their son's (great great great great great uncle?) graves, I marvelled at this couples achievement.

So thanks to my ancient relatives and the lack of central heating for mine and several hundred others existance.

What I was trying to say, badly, was that the lack of central heating may cause a couple to become more intimate so as to keep warm.

sorry

I'm half Swedish (on my Mothers side), and one of her cousins spent about 20 years tracing the family tree...made in back to 935AD! Got authentic Viking kings blood in me!

Quite frankly mate, no.

That simply is unbeatable. The best I can come up with is that some of my ancestors lived in a cave. Some lived in mudhuts.

My dad is a terrible snob about lineage etc, if I were to believe him, we are 2 steps closer to the royal family than eveyone else (not sure how he worked that one out).
He has also said that we are direct male line decendants of Rob Roy (again, no idea where he got that from).
What is true, however, is that Chequers used to belong to my granny's cousin... or something. He was called Lord Lee. But no, I don;t have anything to show for it and neither does she.

Some of mine swam around in warm shallow seas.

...and the fact that you can't sing?



We traced my great-great-great-grandfather back to Marie Antoinette.













Well actually, our great-great-great-grandmother traced him back there several times
