I was told by a Canadian who was a child living in a fishing village at the time of the second world war. She told me that German U boats would dock at villages along the Hudson and you would often see the crew walking around the village or staying on shore leave. She said the villagers did not object and it was all quite friendly. I am surprised that they were able to get so close to America.

I was wondering, before the Romans came to England, were English people all supposidly white skin and red hair. What the Romans called Barbarians.
Nowadays a lot of English people look mixed. Say have dark hair etc. For example I look mediterrain, but both my parents.
are English. Is this because we've had a lot of different cultures come to England over the years.

What historical figure do you most identify with? I don't mean a figure whose life you look to for inspiration, or that you merely admire, but rather someone who feels like a kindred spirit.

Someone whom if you had no idea who they were, but somehow met the person, you'd connect with them.

...and please don't say Jesus as that's an easy cop-out answer. Really think about it :]
