Hmmm, seems many feel that way..lol. As for myself, my bloodline consists of Indian, English, Spanish, and Dutch.

 

[walshy1993]

im 5 generations australian

my background beyond that is mostly irish with a bit of scottish thrown in

 

[Shermanator]

My fathers side included Mongolian bred with Eskimo, who had a relationship with a dead horse and cross bred with a Mexican walking fish.

My mothers, mothers, mother had relations with a Saudia Arabian monkey who was half Native Indian, his half brother was "Two Dogs F*cking" they had two children one bred with a polish sausage dog from Frankfurt. The other didn't mature from a sperm and unfortunately he got mistaken in the family tree as a deep sea diving tadpole.

Only joking - the part about the sperm that is!


All Aussie battler here.......My slave ancestors were Scotish and English (I think).

 

[Macca19]

[BomberBoy]

mum and dad are both french, but i was born in australia.

My mum's mother, was Italian, and lived there but left in the war, because off the Moussolini dictatorship, i'm not to sure, ive never really asked. I guess i should learn more about my roots.

My dad's family comes from Eastern France, and during the war (2nd) my grandfather, since they lived on the border, became a POW from the germans, and then was counted as a german, and then captured by the americans. its a good ending in the end, as he was released at the end of the war

 

[CDFCLad]

English/Northern Irish for me. I hold two passports as well (could have three, but really don't need an Irish one)

Mum's family is English, from the North East of the country (Geordieland), she came out here in the 60's.

Dad's is Scots-Irish (fancy way of saying Northern Irish Protestant) He came out here after his home town, Londonderry, was ruined by the riots in 1968.

 

[kristin5]

My dad is Dutch, and my mum is Australian (but her grandparents were all Irish).

 

[Fat Red]

On my Mum's side I am mostly Irish with some English and Welsh, and on my Dad's side I am again mostly Irish with some English and Scottish. Both sides been in Australia for 100 years plus

 

[Dippers Donuts]

I was born in Ireland (Dublin) to an Irish mudder.

Me dar was a Welsh Boyo.

Ma still speaks with a strong Irish accent (say to yourself "Is your mammy there?" in an irish accent and you will get an idea of what she sounds like ); i don't have an accent cause I was 3 when we moved out to Oz.

As for me I am a proud Aussie; the proudest day in my life was when I became an Aussie citizen and voted YES in the Republic referendum. But thats another story!

 

[Grendel]

Scots/Irish, i love a drink, i just hate paying for it.

 

[Visro]

I was born in Perth but have a lot of different backgrounds.

Mum is French and has a French mother but had a Yugoslavian Father. Hence, French and Yugoslavian descent (and I dont look like a wog either )

Dad is Australian but like every other Australian he has bits and pieces from all over the UK. My brothers a yank btw, has the capability of holding three passports the luck bastard!

Mums Canadian, from Newfoundland, Canada's equivalent to Tassie (no offence) but i cop a bit from my Canadian mate from a 'good' part of Canada about being inbred and marrying one of my cousins.

Theres a fair bit of English and German in there as well.

 

[Still Crowing]

Hehehehe.....sorry, just remembering some Newfie jokes I know. For thoses that dont know, as Nic says, substitute Newfie for Tassie, and add "eh" to the end of every sentence.

Dad is Dutch, came out with his parents when he was 8. From Hilvarenbeek, halfway between Tilburg/Eindhoven.
Mums 3rd gen Aussie. Irish/Scot background.

Born on the south coast of NSW, move to SA at 5, lived in Adelaide for 15 years. Joined the RAN, moved to Melbourne for 18 months, posted to Sydney for a year (did the Timor then Pacific thing), posted to Canberra for a year, posting to Melbourne next year for 4 1/2 years (stability woohoo!).
