I'm pretty sure it is believed that the royals are chosen by God. At least they were back in the daaaaay.

It would've been something to do with Tribe leaders in the times of the Saxons, Vikings and Normans that gave us our Royals. Tribe leaders and the like. Or, in the case of William the Conqueror, Dukes who were related to the Tirbe leaders of Saxon/Viking times and decided they wanted a piece of the action.

So yeah, in the times of Tribes, lots of tribes would have clubbed together to kick seven bails out of another tribe or something, and that mixed tribe would have become the main ruling tribe and the leader of that tribe would have had supreme power.

Ah, glorious Pykrete. :)

It would've worked too if it weren't for those pesky kids!

I've never heard of HMS Hood before.

Bloody typical of the shells to explode in an Ammunition store.

To recap, this is the thread about how the angel got on top of the Christmas Tree and became a Worldwide tradition when the British public caught on to the idea. This idea was first started by Viccy and Ally. Albert probably gave his name to a gruesome piercing of the penis. And at that point we can't figure out how the rest of the thread progressed inmto what it has.

It's quite amazing to just sit and watch these things happen. All the different thoughts that came change something from one thing to a completely different thing, whilst still going with the underlying theme, which is, in this case, Britain.

Whoo! RUle Britannia! :D

Mandate of Heaven, I think it was called.
