Yes, we hate to say it but it's true, the legendary Welsh longbow was once turned Northward towards our fellow Celts in service of that 'orrible sod Edward Longshanks.

Those that have been with us since the start will remember when we were but muffled talking tadpoles before we became the colossal drunken pod frogs we are now.
