    Don't be confused by terms like "Third Cousin Twice Removed" anymore!

    Trying to figure out what to call your distant cousin? Start by asking these 3 simple questions.

    Ha! I've always tied myself up in knots with that, so cheers Martyn!

    My old German teacher at school once revealed that his second cousin, once removed was David Bowie.

    I was never able to quite get my head around the familial relationship, but it was worthy of instant respect and awe regardless!

    Finally 30 years later I know what that actually means, so nice work!!

      Cheers, Ms Diddels (German spelling).

      TBH I never fully understood those more distant relationships myself. Don't feel so bad now that I wasn't the only one!
