Its a bit like calling Liz a German!

Well I AM a quarter german, my grandfather was!
If we want to take this a bit further, the Windsor family were originally German, William the 3rd was Dutch (I think it was the 3rd anyway, the one they called William of Orange), and the Queen's children are all half Greek as Prince Phillip is Greek. I think you have to go back to the Stuarts to find proper british blood in the royal family (and they came from SCotland mostly!).

Stongl, you should be made a saint for just going to Zens!

Actually don't tell anybody, but I go upstairs to the Library. Older ho's more than willing to put out, guaranteed.

Besides, I'm from Essex, and you never, ever sh*t on your own doorstep (if you know what I mean)

Prince Phillip is from the Greek royal family who are actually, you guessed it, German!

My Bad

Henry was indeed very English - he was, at one time, the Duke of Aquitaine which stuck in my head and got me all confused.

Henry V was a good english lad but had the unfortunate distinction of being born in Wales!!!

Never mind
