In reply to AP Melbourne:
As with BusyLizzie, I was brought up as an adoptee. I recently found my full blood brother and sister who are physically very similar to me but, until then, had no idea what my genetic family were like. I'm a bit bulkier than my brother but then he smokes and doesn't seem to eat a lot and I do eat and do a lot more exercise. But you can tell we're all from the same stock. In fact, my brother and I have some very similar physical traits which are clearly inherited, but are very disimilar in other ways.
I think I was posting on here much more regularly when I was looking for them and going through a bit of a difficult time when BusyLizzie came to my aid.
