So?

I wallow in his bolognaisedness, all hail

The highest or chief worshipped has a white (carbonara) hat!

read all about it here

And then go and play bows and arrows in the back garden like a good girl.

And if you are very good I will let you borrow my colander for a hat.

I'm going to Wales for my bow and arrows, after all, most of the best English archers were welsh. Ask Bags

I used to make mine out of sticks from the woods. With a tin tray for a target.

You could get a bit of practice in until you get your real one.

You will be an English archer. Very Bernard Cornwell.

Ah, you already mentioned English archers. Must read posts properly.

They were not! And how does that Bags know anyway?!

As my gran used to say ' that's for me to know and you to find out!'

Looks like I'm stuck with pasta bows then, don't think they will shoot well but might be okay in the hair!

Surrealism lives on Gransnet.

Hasn't it always?

Thanks for the enlightenment jings.

Bags says Yes, Indeed about the best archers being the Welsh longbowmen. It was Welsh longbowmen at Agincourt. The bow was not particularly a saxon weapon.

My fount of this knowledge? Mrbags.

Humph!

Bernard never mentioned that fact.

A recent programme on TV examined and explained the human skeleton. It had been deduced that the longbowmen of centuries past had had not only more developed muscles in one arm but also longer bones.

That proves they were Welsh then.

INFO!

Oh alright!!!

bugger orf

Hoyt excel called Myfanwy!

Pardon?

gave the Welsh superior fire power for a while, until those dratted Normans copied the technology.

Soop those were the ones on the Mary Rose weren't they?

My new bow! It's blue and called Myfanwy!

How did the Mary Rose get in with this lot?!
