I also happen to LIKE the word gesundheit!
Now that this thread is threatening to careen off the tracks and smash into oncoming traffic I wonder how strongly your average Scot would object to being confused with a person of the Flemish persuasion?!?![]()

I hear that "Highland Caber Throwers" (fabulously kilted and be-sporraned of course) are on the menu this time round, with a special 'eat haggis' ability that enables them to throw a super large caber once per battle. Very useful when dealing with those cannon elephants...

someone made the point that the difference was all in the english/welsh use of massed "shower" fire from longbows, and that the longbow as such wasnt unique to the british isles: good point.
regarding my previous claim of the longbows scandinavian roots, you should google longbow, scandinavian and vikings, its interesting reading.
