I don't know. Where's Jorvik? Sounds like one of the homes of the 
Northmen. Well, if you want to come visit, why don't you try southern
Scotland. I've been having a bit of trouble with some of those uncivilized
Scots raiding my sheep lately. Burned a small village and a mill, too. 
Perhaps you could keep them company for awhile. I think we could work
out a deal.

Heard some of your relatives in Normandy have been lending support to that 
upstart Matilda, too. If you are going to support a pretender to the throne
of England, you could at least pick better than her. Hmph.
