//Really TTT!! Just back and already you are flooding the site with load of nonsense.// Then don't read it. As someone who was born and bred in Hastings, 1066 is of major interest to me. More so than the continued bleating about Haggis breeding season or a nation Irn Bru shortage (or whatever the latest whinge north of the border may be)
