Homeschoolin' - The Norman invasion
The Saxon is not like us Normans. His manners are not so polite.
But he never means anything serious till he talks about justice and right.
When he stands like an ox in the furrow – with his sullen set eyes on your own,
And grumbles, 'This isn't fair dealing,' my son, leave the Saxon alone.
- Rudyard Kipling
We're going to recreate the battle of Hastings this weekend. Not sure if we'll do it on the trampoline with the cat, or on the bed with pillows. If I get a good video, I'll share.
