I always thought of myself as an average Brit/English person. If I was going to be pedantic I would say I was a Yorkshire Lass because that is where I was born. I have Scottish and Irish ancestry as recent as my Grandparents and I certainly don't think of myself as anti-Irish or anti-Scottish or anti-anything for that matter. If I was anti-Irish I certainly wouldn't have married into an Irish family. This thread has made some interesting points but it is full of childish bickering.
