We Of The Swaefas

We all know Wikipedia is like some kind of crazed assassin that hunts down information like Blade hunts down vampires. But what you probably didn't know is what it had to say about Swaffham which (take note if you want to hunt us down for some kind of futuristic blood-sport] is where we blog from, in two secret locations , and by secret I mean we still live with our parents.

"Swaffham is a town (population 6935[1]) in Norfolk, England and is named after an Anglo-Saxon tribe named the "Swaefas".

In the 14th and 15th centuries, the town had a flourishing sheep and wool industry.

The Market Cross was built by the writer Horace Walpole and presented to the town in 1783. On the top is the statue of Ceres, the Roman goddess of the harvest.

The town is the home of infamous 'lotto lout' Michael Carroll.

The five-mile £5m part-dual-carriageway A47 bypass opened in June 1981."

I'm not sure if the opening paragraph of this post is funnier than that of the first post. It's all genius so far!
