He's posted this 'On the lighter side', so I'm sure it's a joke

I don't think so https://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php?topic=768618.msg6210076#msg6210076 and many others  :)

Sorry, Malcolm, Ancestry doesn't list Egyptian as a valid/separate  ethnicity and, as we all know, they know best  :-X :-X :-X

I used to be quite sceptical about all this sort of thing but Malcolm's research has convinced me.

I'd better not say.
 

I agree with you, Mike. And I will also take this opportunity not to say.

I don't want to be unkind, but this is all total nonsense and any 'research' is utterly subjective.  I would really love to be able to believe that the ancient Egyptians had foreseen the rise of Harry Potter and his ilk, but I fear the evidence is somewhat lacking.  ;D
