    Wow! Imagine coming across something like that locally .......knowing my luck, all I'd find is tin cans in a 70's landfill site.

    just what I thought.

    Don't let the Normans tell you that there was no high culture before they came.

    I do believe ...... the Normans have all by now passed on to meet their maker.

    What have the Normans ever done for us? pah.

    ..actually, there's probably a bit of Norman in most of us (there certainly is in me thanks to my auntie's interest in genealogy) as well as much more besides!
