SatanGreavsie Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 In an idle moment just now I thought what if you dial in a random page number from the main topics listings page of one of the forum sections, and see what was happening a while back. So, on Behind The Stands, 666 wasn't an option as there aren't that many pages listing topics, so I went for 333. Lo and behold it turned out to be Dec 27th 1012, and on the first page listing topics there's one from Leigh White called "quarantined". Genuinely totally random that that came up, and as per most of his posts, it's a laugh: http://www.wanderersways.com/forum/topic/75899-quarantined/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As the Chronicles put it: "then they that removed his innards from his still living corpse were thereupon so repulsed by the contents thereof that upon the greatest of haste did they put them back. It is said that the contents doth bear the name "lobbie" and that the unholy foulage is clearly the work of the devil himself and all his imps". 500 years after Lord Leythe de White died intestate, above a hovel of ill repute in Hastings (he never dared leave there after changing sides numerous times during the Battle), his far distant relative Baron Michael de Myner was serving as warden of the chambermaids in Henry VIII''s court. He got the job after forging a family tree that was rather suspect in its veracity, having roots about as solid as Birnam Wood. After being caught knocking off the latest bride to be, Anne of Cleve's, he successfully saved his skin by convincing the court she was actually "Anne from Cleveleys" whereupon he received a pardon and a pension, most of which he spent on a course of blood-letting from a quack apothecary in Solihull, hoping to cure "ye pox". Though it didn't work and he died shortly thereafter, it was not before siring an heir during a brief stagecoach stop on the Great East road, in a layby, somewhere near Melton Mowbray. And the rest is history... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Presumably after being quartered twice he became known as King Little Egwhyt. Who'do have thought Leigh White and Little Whit were related.
