1066 AD Norman-Invasion- Lost

Actually tied at 1-all, there were two Northman invasions in 1066. One in the South by Duke William of Normandy, and an earlier one in the North by King Harald Hardrada of Norway, who lost.

Ah, yes.

As I recall, there is a little tune "Johnny Cope, are ye wakin' yet?" Appropriate for a reveille, I should think.
