[hometext] => This is about one of my renowned ancestors, a famous historic figure named Boudicca. http://www.bbc.co.uk/history/historic_figures/boudicca.shtml
[bodytext] => The Iceni Celts lived in the flat fenlands across E. Briton. Their Queen had a fearsome way for anyone to alight upon. Romans tried to cut a deal with her war torn king husband. When the king died, she was ridiculed by evil guardsmen. Stately with flaming red she was clad in a rainbow cloak. Her piercing voice and fiery eyes did make her foes choke. Blazing a trail, in her war chariot, she led 100,000 to war. From the House of Briton, her legendary deeds would soar. She defeating over 70, 000 Romans and also Romanized-Celts. Boudicca’s clan rid part of a Roman legion, triumphantly felt. Opposing forces met at Midlands near the village of Mancetter. Her words still echoes through books, they say God-blessed-her.
