Good evening my dear lads and ladies, short update. Easter is approaching and you'll be getting some new stuff on those days as I'm off to the North Sea to clear my head. My private life is slowly calming down, even if work is a lot at the moment, but it has to be otherwise life will be bad, but as I said it's slowly getting back to normal. See you around and then your Lieutenant will be back on deck and take over the watch.

Glad to hear. Return in your own time.

William the Conqueror's death was an incredibly chaotic affair.

As soon as the king was dead his attendants looted his belongings and left his body almost naked. Eventually his body was taken by boat for burial in Caen, but as he was being led through the town a fire broke out. His funeral ceremony in St Stephen’s Abbey was interrupted by an irate heckler and, finally, William’s body proved to be too fat to fit into his stone sarcophagus, and when the monks tried to force the issue his swollen bowels burst.

I have not read this before.

All I know is that his son, William Rufus was not a popular King.

William the Bastard had no right to the throne, Norman dog.
