    Well no a larger percent obv mixes among their own but there is the 10 or 15% that does mix.

    In seriousness I kind of agree, they are typical rural horsey set old money types common place, brunns are underrated in number in Eng, not sure you can judge all that of this 1 image tho

    They don't look that different from the rural posh set you get around the Cotswolds, Cirencester etc that I am relatively familiar with being from the area.

    It could be that those with a tan in this set have quite a few holidays a year, ie South of France, skiing trips, Barbados in winter etc

    Brunns are very common in the North, i still think that the South has less Brunns in general than the north, if you look at places in east Anglia for example you will notice a lack of Brunn influence i think, especially when you consider that the gene for red hair is much less common there than in the north and west. The young ginger man in the right of the photo has a stereotypical Irish look, many aristocrats in England i imagine have married people of Irish descent especially as they live in the SE and Midlands mainly.

    Oh absolutely regarding holidays well pampered lot they are lol, I still notice though that they don't seem to be the more freckled types one sees with a lot of British, though i think a lot of Welsh also tan like that, Charlotte Church etc. Complexion wise they resemble Belgians and West Germans i think more than they resemble Scots though their facial features are British.

    I wouldn't say it is an Irish look to be ginger tbh, you get quite a few ginger brunn types across rural areas in Eng, Adam Henson from Countryfile, Kaleb from Clarkson's farm etc

    Adam Henson's got a very Nordic look i think, Caleb is more on the blonde side, it is that ginger look with curly hair and a round face that strikes me as very Irish, not even Scottish.
