Your comments are correct @guest_ but the point is that Richard could barely speak any form of English. He hardly set foot in England, so of course he couldn't speak Middle English, the language of the 12th century. His brother John I, who succeeded him, certainly did, even though Norman French would have been spoken at court. Richard basically thought England and the English were beneath him, or at least that the only use they had for him was as a source of income.

And doesn't it apply to us all?

I hope you Old Bay'ed those babies

And narrowing my eyes, firming my jaw and giving myself a small, affirming nod?

Could you submit a photo of the pin's face?
