<p>Yeah OK. I still think you're a prick though. But you are a funny prick. OK, a funny genius prick. Well yes a funny genius prick who'd be very handy coming in at number three. And driving us to the party that night.</p>

<p>Hmm, just unseamed myself from the nave to the chops there while showing off my boredsword action didn't I? You can see why I'm not working as a Saxon HTML coder.</p>
<p>Take two.</p>
<p>I think just being a <strike>pheasant</strike> peasant back them was wasn't much fun anyway. Especially when Norman nobles sallied out on houseback with their hounds and started bellowing "Serf's up!"</p>
<p>And being a court jester wasn't all bells and whistles either. More than one got topped for pushing court gossip a little too far in between the capering, belching and farting.</p>
<p>And can I just put in here an unsolicted testimonal for <a href="http://bleatings.blogspot.com/2006/03/george-shipway-article-by-alan-fisk.html" rel="nofollow">George Shipway</a> who wrote some of the best novels I've ever read about the whole Roman-Anglo-Saxon-Norman times. Beautifully researched, utterly unsentimental yet with surprising empathy, major sex, violence and witchcraft yet never gratitious with it and all rendered in clear sturdy and often elegant prose.</p>
<p>Think Henry Treece for grown ups or a bloodier George McDonald Frazer among the wattle daubers. This guy is a lost gem, especially if yer into medieval and ancient Rome stuff. I warn all you quivering kerns and gallowglasses here though that he's strong stuff.</p>Nabakov commented on 'STRAIGHT TALKING'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d8341cb34453ef00d834b05fd653ef2006-09-12T14:58:58Z2007-08-18T02:38:30ZNabakovI think just being a pheasant peasant back them was wasn't much fun anyway.
