Nope, B in O'Level.

  Me too Madfan - they didn't even have the courtesy to put a county on the census here - never mind a town - just Ireland !

I know at least names and rough places for all my 3g grandparents, so I'm:
11/32 Irish
1/32 Scottish
20/32 English

Yet to find any Welsh!  I can also trace my family in the parish where I now live back to the 1750s - although we haven't been here continuously since then - I wasn't even aware of the connection when I moved here.
