I would've picked Brian boru as well, but since GMan beat me to the punch I'll go a bit further back and name Vercingetorix, who united most of the Gauls against Caesar's invading armies.

Bryan...do we see a common thread, here?

Hmm...tough question.

I would say my favourite story would be that of St. Columba and the Loch Ness Monster, the first documented "Nessie" sightning in history! ;)

There are so many to choose from, but my number one pick would have to be:

Robert Burns

Yours Aye,

Todd

Plus I have a soft spot for this lady ...Grace O'Malley

I am surprised he hasn't been listed yet.

Finn McCool

[Shay]

Morrigan.

I know it's a morbid choice, but it's more out of fascination than favoritism.

Flora MacDonald, raised on her legend, did a university paper on her and her family in the states, last claymore highland charge was in the Carolinas.

Asterix the Gaul!!!

Has anybody read the one where they visit Briton? Asterix has to go and find an herb from the Far East...which turns out to be tea. Apparently the Britons just drank hot water with a spot of milk in it before Asterix came along...drove the Romans crazy, because the Britons insisted on taking a hot water break every afternoon, and the fighting had to be postponed...sometimes they had ridiculously small sandwiches as well...

Anyway. :razz:

I love that comic.
