I find this forum very interesting. There's a lot of useful information here.

Been reading my fun facts, eh?

Have any more for us BK?

Here's a two-for:

Well you know Dasher, Dancer, Prancer, Vixen, Comet, Cupid...but did you know Donner and Blitzen mean thunder and lightning in German?

In fact the German word for Thursday is Donnerstag. Thursday's English name came from Thor...Thor's Day! Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday are also named after the Norse pantheon.

Got my ancestry results this morning.

Spoiler:

I am 100% whelmed. It's exactly what I thought it'd be considering what I know of my family. They were absolutely not travelling to a place where they could not complain about the wether. I knew I wasn't getting anything interesting like 1% Polynesian or anything, but I did secretly yearn for some travelling Lithuanian (LithuWaynian?) circus performer to somehow have snuck is way in there, but alas.

I'm impressed that you're likely more Irish than I am! My missus has said she's wanted to do this herself for a long time even though she's convinced she's basically the same as you (possibly with the inverse ironically given her dad's name and how much time he's spent in the UK).
