Anglo-Saxon

Being from the UK, I am considered by Italians to be someone from an Anglo-Saxon culture. This makes me chuckle because for me ‘Anglo-Saxon’ sort of conjures up images of a people clad in fur and who rally to the war cries of a queen going by the name of Boadicea.

Before anyone corrects me, I know that Boadicea had nothing to do with Anglo-Saxons. Anyway, I sure you’ll be happy to hear that I rarely wear fur and know nobody by the name of Boadicea. I’m not even your average pagan either.

Just a funny thought for the day, that’s all.
