If you wanted to get a more realistic idea of things as opposed to the potted versions in popular books and depicted on movies then a serious book is the best bet I think. You may well already have read it but Malcolm Barber's <i>The New Knighthood</i> paints a more realistic view of things - it's 'dry' and scholarly but worth the time if you're keen. Cheers Rod Temp,

My window on the world is the web. <b>But</b>, I have lots of channels available on the net. I use Zatoo and TVUnetworks with hundreds of choices from all around the world. I have just installed Ziggytv as it does the above channel but haven't tried it out properly yet. I'll let you know how it works out. Regards, Neville Rod,

Hopefully others will get to see it Cheers Rod the Televisual Peasant Neville,

That must refer to the fact that the Grey Friars originally paid rent to the Templars in Grimsby. It's great see the full reference Neville, I allude to the theory <a href="http://www.rodcollins.com/wordpress/the-knights-templar-in-grimsby-lincolnshire">here</a> but that well and truly nails it down ! You're having quite a day Neville ! Best Rod Neville,

Its from the Calendar of Patent Rolls tempus Edward I, 6 May 1305 <i>"Licence for the alienation in mortmain by Robert le Eyr of Grimesby, to the master and brethren of the Knights Templars in England, of 40d. rent from a tenement of his in the town of Grimesby, so that a place there of the guardian and Friars Minors of Grimesby may be discharged of a like rent to the said Knights Templars"</i> Regards, Neville Rod,
