William was an amazing figure, with a lot of nerve. But I guess he wasn’t that great a horseman in his old age.

Bad genes, or bad environment - most of his descendants turned out to have great gifts, but also immense flaws. I prefer being ordinary. Of course, I ended up with a batch of Norman-type offspring, anyhow. Maybe they get it from their Dad.

Yup. That's me.

Glad to know your kids are weird like me.
