You, sir, are an absolute gem!

Actually, our event will take place in 890.

	You see? First you let some Saxons in, and then they let some
Angles in, and before you know it they are calling the whole island of
Britain "Angle-land"! Danes, Saxons, Angles, Dal Riadans,
Picts...everyone wants a piece of the Isle of the Mighty. 
	
	We true Britons, we Cumry, may cooperate with Alfred to get rid
of the Danes but that doesn't mean we have to like him or his people. I
do suppose we could suspend Saxon-hunting season for a year or two and
hunt Danes instead. (as happened in 893-4 AD)
	
	(quoting a verse from the song "Arthur's Men")
	Barbarians from every shore come hungering for our land,
	They claim our soil for evermore with sword in bloody hand.
	(chorus)
	Yet Arthur's men still ride tonight, out across the fen
	and civilization's flickering light rides out with Arthur's men.
	
	(and from the Sunset poem)
	
	"Yet even when the battle's won,
	they still outnumber us ten to one.
	The war was lost ere 'twas begun.
	Sure as the sunset in the West.
	
	Ne'er the less I'll stand and fight.
	Opposing darkness with my might.
	To strike a blow for God and Right
	as Britain's sun sets in the West."

is fighting, it will be for FUN (and to give those loud, stupid men
something to do that will get them out of the hall) And before you go
hunting down too many Saxons, you should have a little respect for
Alfred who was able to stop all that Danish plundering that kept England
in the dark for so long!
