Perhaps we need another thread for male personal grooming habits in the over 50s macho man

Re: Are You Proud Of Your Roots?
Being an Irish Mick but you wouldn’t know it because l have an English accent, l don’t know a lot about my roots.My family came to live in England when l was 4years old.
I know that my mother was brought up by her grandmother, a teacher and her spinster aunt, also a teacher who never married as her fiancé was killed in a war. My mother was sent to live with them as her brothers and sisters were dying from TB.
My mother was given a good education and sent to secretarial college.
My dad’s family had a haulage business and he drove lorries. He was very handsome, charming and sang in singing contests that he won!
Because we came to England, we only saw our grandparents once a year when we went to Ireland. I think, l only saw my mother’s widowed mother once when she came to the UK, she was a battle axe!
My brother did look into our ancestry but came to a full stop as at some point, the records office was burnt down!
My mother always said, we came from the Kings of Ireland and there’s a castle in my dad’s surname in the area where l was born!
It’s ok, there’s no need to bow !!

) but I was diagnosed with haemochromatosis, the "Celtic Curse", a few years ago. https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/haemochromatosis/
You're at risk of developing the condition if both of your parents have this faulty gene and you inherit one copy from each of them.
If you only inherit one copy of the genetic fault, you won't get haemochromatosis, but there's a chance you could pass the faulty gene on to any children you have.
