Cant agree, I'm afraid, that they (the 'Celts') bred us.

There was almost certainly more influence by the 'Celts' on the Germanic tribes that migrated to these islands after the Romans withdrew than has hitherto been acknowledged but the Germanic tribes that came here brought with them their own language, poetry, laws and belief systems which, though perhaps not always as sophisticated as those they supplanted, are none the less 'ours' and something to be proud of.
