Wow a knight!! thats cool. I think they beheaded people all the time back then though, he could have been innocent! Even if he wasn't, thats still a cool story.

Hannah Report 28 Aug 2007 19:56

Really? i suppose you do have to check lots of areas and spellings.

Skeggy Girl, i know what you mean about family not wanting to know the past but as long as you dont publish it, its still between the family!
