I think that's the day William was crowned, not the day of the battle. I can't remember that though, must've been sometime in the fall...

Incorrect Lewis. That wasn't the day William was crowned either Lewis, he was crowned on Christmas day.

I was at a disadvantage there because Christmas is usually celebrated in Germany on the evening of the 24th... Smiley Not that it matters as I already was wrong anyways.

I didn't know you had family living in Germany. Or maybe you told me and I simply forgot... Undecided

Me and my parents still celebrate christmas on the 24th. Back at school other children thought I was really weird because of that, and we used to have big arguments over whether the 24th or the 25th was the "main" christmas day.

Yes indeed I have family in Germany. My sister and her husband both have jobs out in Dusseldorf. They actually live in Krefeld. Ever been there?

In JFK's absence, I will post a question.

Who was the only man elected twice as President, and twice as Vice-President?

What did President John Fitzgerald Kennedy say when told of the events at Birmingham Alabama?

Just wanted to say that I knew about the Hundred's Year War, though it was interrupted by peace treaties such as the 1364 one and I also have relatives and friends in Germany. Smiley Visited a wedding near Dusseldorf a year ago, as a matter of fact. Smiley
