Love is the Key

Author’s Note

Author’s NoteThe Danes with a large force crossed the North Sea in A.D. 878 and invaded Chippenham.

They captured the village, the whole surrounding County of Wessex and then East Anglia and Rochester.

At one moment King Alfred and his troops had to withdraw to the centre of England.

Six years later they returned to their native land, but came continually in small groups raiding the villages and land on the East Coast of England. They took the crops and sometimes the women.

The result was that for many years houses in that area, especially Norfolk, built fortifications, and it was a long time before the Towers did not have watching guards stationed on the top of them.

This story came to my mind after I had seen a beautiful house in Norfolk, belonging to Mr. St. John Foti, which has several small fortified Towers surrounding it.

This house was originally owned by the Benedictine monks, who left behind a recipe called ‘Old Norfolk Punch’, which has great healing qualities.

Mr. St. John Foti, on my advice, has now put it on the market and it is a huge success in England, Europe and Japan. After I had opened his small factory, the demand became so great that it had to be doubled in size and worked twenty-four hours a day in shifts.

The beauty of Norfolk, the magnificent Ely Cathedral and its historical remains of the past are fascinating and all part of our long history.
