Great Commanders

[Kingmaker]

HiHi

Trouble is with a 'Good Holiday' is you need another to follow to recover! :)

Yer saw your caveat and did hesitate about sticking my neck out, I was wondering if you were going down the crouched lance concept that has been mooted for Hastings, ie it set the style for the later Middle ages, never was keen on that idea as a look at the Bayuax (?spl?) tapestry will show it was a bit, out of order

As I understand it the idea behind the defining moment in history thing is that it led to a powerful England with all it's ramifications throughout history.

Well although it's sort of counter history stuff, it could be suggested that the conquest actually blunted English (Anglo-saxon) developement/culture.

Sorry I'm in a hell of a rush at the moment gotta go to work tonight but I wanted to get something back to you and not just leave it hanging in the air, if you wish we can develope this train of thought see were it leads, but it will have to be later in the week for me.

All the Best
Peter
