"I am, I was thinking about starting a petition in order to gain an apology from their descendants. Would you sign it? No, I am still angry over the Roman invasion . I mean , what have the Romans ever done for us ?." A good point lets slap Italy for reparations. | |||

"I am, I was thinking about starting a petition in order to gain an apology from their descendants. Would you sign it? " Certainly not. I'm a direct male descendant of a Norman invader. Oddly enough, one of the reasons why the Angle-Saxons lost was because they chased the Normans who pretended to run away and the English in World War 2 made the same mistake of running after Germans who led them into traps. | |||

"Roads, sewers, daffodils, Carry On Cleo and Hadrians Wall Rabbits.... Bragging rights for the Scots. Never conquered on a permanent or lasting basis, no matter who tried But have always been ruled by sasanachs. " Ah but there we must look at the facts. The word sassanach truly refers to those who speak an Anglican language (inc southern Scots ) not referring to the English as now commonly thought ! Considering Scotland is one of the oldest nations in Europe and pre dates the English nation then we cannot have always been ruled by the sassanach , oh and as a n afterthought I do believe James VI OF SCOTLAND took the English throne , therefore the evidence is irrefutable hehe | |||

(ie India, Kenya as was quoted ) I don't think you will find that is how the British colonised India at all..." It was not meant to be a coherant lesson on British modern history, more a lighthearted banter on the back of some teasing about the Scots , all taken in a lighthearted way. I am more than aware of how India was colonised by the empire and fought over by various European nations, the east India trading company etc etc. It so happens I have a masters in history and know quite a bit about this subject. The point was that WE as an empire exploited other countries by some form of conquest. Happy now ? Can we get back to lighthearted now ? | |||

That's a very old study, the Swanscombe chalk pit dig in Kent blew that old chestnut out of the water a few years ago. It is true that the Romans reintroduced the Spanish rabbit back into Britain when they invaded, but proof of earlier wild rabbits have been found over the last few years. Look it up.... | |||

Quite true. The domestic rabbit is a descendant of the wild European rabbit. Rabbits were believed to have been introduced to Britain by the Romans, however, who kept them in fenced off warrens and harvested their meat and fur. | |||
