Oh cool! This thread is back again! I do notice that guys with red hair drink lots of whisky and get in lots of fist fights, if those are at all neandertal traits. Being 1/4 Irish, and some Scot, I figure I'm allowed to make rude remarks on this subject:-)
The old boy from Devon, sometimes known as Uncle Frank, could have said something along the lines of "To my relatives and their decendents, I bequeath my red hair and beard, and a love of boats and edged weaponry."
Red beard...
A love of boats...
and edged weaponry...
