quote:
a fair amount of bad blood between Vikings and Brits


Your right about that one Rick, our countryside is littered with towns with damn Danish names!

Some Examples

They ruled half the country at one time - The Danelaw

However the good news was that they eventually became English!

Their (note that odd word!) language lives on!

"the mixed language of the Danelaw caused the incorporation of many Norse words into the English language, including the word law itself, as well as the third person plural pronouns they, them and their."
