    The Vikings seem to have been rehabilitated but I remember a lecture at university where they were called one of the greatest threats to civilisation ever.

    While mentioning my Scottish heritage, my Viking-looking northern Norwegian friend commented, “You can thank the Vikings for the Scots good looks.”

    A most enjoyable set of images. I don’t think you can find anyone who has not heard at least some of the history, lore and legends of the Vikings. Can’t say that about lots of groups.

    My Yorkshire hubby is definitely from Viking stock and his motorcycle nickname is Viking. When he had his own business he called it Jorvik Enterprises and our boat was called Jorvik with a huge Viking sword painted on the side. I would love to go to Norway or Sweden one day. (But in the summer)

    The closest I get is about an eighth of Danish blood from my mother’s side.
