Being the new boy I don't want to run the risk of having my head stuck in the bowl, but you actually take your nationality from your father. I was born in Germany as a Forces brat & was forever getting into fights through being called a German when we moved back to the UK (I very seldom won, as it happensm so maybe there was some truth in the accusations after all?)

EDIT:- not quite true, in Britain, it depends where you live and where you are brought up.
There are hundreds of thousands of Scottish people, born in Scotland, but say recently moved to England, will not be allowed to vote in the 2014 referendum.

Equally there are 10's of thousands of English people who have moved to Scotland who can.

So now work out your own nationality?

Jump in, we all have to have our head in the bowl at some point, so might as well get it over with.

I must admit I thought it was to do with both where you were born and your father, as I thought I read somewhere that on the odd times a baby has been born on a plane, it gets dual nationality, of the country of it's father, and the country where it was born/flying over.

So if you were born in the space shuttle or equivalent, on a mission, does that make you a looney?

Although, the evidence points too, apparently not, looking at most of the members on here...

Any way, we're going to Scotland this year, 1st time in nearly 10 years, going to a family wedding in Aboyne.( inlaws)
We are taking our caravan and plan to have a couple of weeks holiday, should be fun
