Well I sort of knew my Ancestry DNA would should a high percent of Irish DNA.
I didn't imagine It was more than my British DNA. 35% Irish and only 10% British
well you just never know

There isn't much difference between 'Irish' and 'British' DNA. As you can see on the map, they overlap considerably

In my opinion ethnic origin DNA tests are about as reliable and useful as a horoscope.

The ethnicity estimates of autosomal DNA tests are interesting but the technology is not advanced enough yet for the estimates to be regarded as fact. The real value in autosomal testing is the ability to match with cousins.
