Hello everyone and welcome back to the history of England, episode 372.

0:26.6

Before we kick off just a wee while ago I came across the podcast that I thought you would all enjoy.

0:34.8

And whether or not you will I certainly enjoyed it. It's a tie up between two folks exploring

some of the folk stories of England County by County, their history, folk tales and creative

2:03.7

toast of Mrs. King, with Buster source of course, and when he'd simmered down after ranting to his

2:09.4

wife about his day at the office, he was probably forced to admit that his latest parliament

2:14.9

had not been one of life's high points. He decided he really didn't need any grief from any other

2:21.9
