How many different nationalities in Dulwich

[Mogs]

I was wondering how many nationalities we have in Dulwich?

I know there are a few Irish, and I'm Welsh, my husband is a English (Londoner)

[Brendan]

Well I'm half Afrikaans and half Irish.

It's a weird state of affairs to be in I tell you.

[wee quinnie]

The wee quinnie household is half Irish half Australian. All of the cliches hold true in this instance.

[Mark]

I'm half Ukranian and half English, which makes me Ukranglish I suppose

[edited once]

[Jonboy]

Mrs Jonboy is from Bolton.

[Brendan]

Mrs Brendan is from Manchester. Not sure what nationality that is.

[Asset]

I think that's spadetownboy's attempt at celtic irony, Nero.

100% Paddy myself but I tend to not bother with national identity much these days. It's where your parents had sex and hung around for 9 months. It's not a choice one makes, it's just luck. Of course growing up in different countries one accumulates a core value-set which makes up one's identity, but we are as well to question those values as accept and be proud of them

as sean points out nero bit of late night irony with a pinch of tongue in cheek chucked in for good measure. but your reply is point one with being 100% english no fucking sense of humour.

[SeanMacGabhann]

Nero could point out that you have no sense of punctuation spadetownboy - but that would be because you are you and not because you are Irish

And I've met Nero - definitely has a sense of humour.

Or humor as my spellchecker insists it's spelled. Wouldn't like to say why that is... ;-)

Is there any such thing as 100% English anyway? Somehow I doubt it.

[HR]

i am greek cypriot. both my parents are from cyprus. i have lived in the area most of my life. there is a tiny few of us around in the area!

[TillieTrotter]

Well actually, last year I worked long and hard at my family tree and am definately a Londoner with no mixing going back as far as early 1800s. Very proud I was too!!

[TillieTrotter]

But being blonde and blue eyed I probably was of viking origins if we are going back that far!

[dulwichmum]

Isn't it quite the melting pot! I am not a Londoner myself either.

[SeanMacGabhann]

Dm. . . Im thinking american heritage? Or maybe russian aristocracy?

[TillieTrotter]

The Rula Lenska connection?

[monica]

well im half spanish half italian,married to a belfast bloke,and blooming proud of it:))

[SeanMacGabhann]

Thats at least two people who have use the word proud. I can be proud of many things.. But where my parents had sex? Not really the moment i had most input..
