Since we all spend so much time staring at the faux Bayeux Tapestry on the splash screen I thought it might be fun to have a memory challenge.
We can take turns posing a question about the tapestry and others can try to answer it from memory before looking. No shame in looking however.
I'll start: How many women are depicted observing the battle in the tapestry?
I'm going to have to look... stopped paying attention to that screen image a long time ago 🤣
One of the most horrible features of war is that all the war-propaganda, all the screaming and lies and hatred, comes invariably from people who are not fighting.

5 🙂
Had a look... might actually be 6 ... or 5 and a child 😀

I thought it was 6 but maybe the 6th one is a child.
Cargol's turn.
How many kings are depicted there? 🧐 🧐
Without looking, I think it is 2.
Nope, I was short by 1. it is 3 kings.

Made me go look -- yes, it is 3. 😆

Hmm, I should have memorized this one. I'll guess 4.
Frankly I'm amazed at how useless those tin pot style helmets are against axes in the tapestry 🙂
Edit: By axe, it's 2.
How many horns or trumpets are shown?
