I have just had a lovely day teaching Vikings in a Nottingham school. Vikings is one of my favourite topics because I get to teach some pretty funny myths. Myths are great because you get to see into a culture. A culture of cold rugged mountains, salt spray and tales by the fireside. 
And I got to try out my new Viking beads from the GrimFrost. If your looking for excellent replicas these are the guys to visit.
