Thread Name: BS: Was King Arthur a Yorkshireman?
Subject: BS: Was King Arthur a Yorkshireman?
It's not an April Fool. An historian is claiming that King Arthur came from Catterick.
Well, they reckon Robin Hood was a Yorkshireman, so why not King Arthur!
Personally I think that Yorkshire people feel so insecure that they need the re-assurance of claiming these folk heroes as their own. :-)
And just because I'm from Lincolnshire it doesn't mean that I'm biased.
