THESE DNA UPDATES ARE COMING THICK AND FAST NOW

Three months on and I've received another DNA update. Hard to keep track now!

First, the results summary - 


My Scottish ethnicity is now 74%, down 3% from last time; English is 12%, down 2%; Irish remains at 7% but there is now mention of Swedish & Denmark ethnicity of 7%. Was 2% Norwegian in May past, but the Scandinavian ethnicity, which had been seen in the past, and had disappeared completely, has come back stronger than ever. This does remain a mystery!

Now, my ethnicity inheritance has also been updated - as below.

The most notable points to be taken from this are:-

1. The English inheritance was split 4% / 10% between Parent 1 and 2, now the split is 5% / 7%.

2. Parent 2 is still providing the 7% Irish but is also giving me the 7% Sweden & Denmark ethnicity.

Can't work this out at all! Hopefully, the further we go on with this, the clearer it will become?
