The Cunning Celts
Once the new visitors began to settle in, life went quite smoothly until England was invaded properly for the first time by the Celts. They came here in 650 ВС from Central Europe apparently looking for tin — please don't ask me why! The Celts were tall, blond and blue-eyed and so got all the best girls right away. This, of course, annoyed the poor Britons even more, but there was not much they could do about it as they only had sticks and fists to fight with. The Celts set up home in the south of England building flash wooden forts which the poor boneheaded locals could only mill around in awe and envy.
Now England wasn't too bad a place to live for the next few hundred years (if you were tall, blue-eyed and blond). Then in 55 ВС the late great Julius Caesar — star of stage and screen — arrived with a couple of legions from Rome, Italy The refined Romans were repelled, in more ways than one, by the crude Celts. They did, however, come back a year later with a much bigger, better-equipped army — and guess what — were repelled again.

Хитрые кельты.
Как только новые гости начали обустраиваться, жизнь теклаплавно до тех пор, пока в Англия не была атакована кельтами в первый раз. Онпришли сюда в 650 г до н.э из Центральной Европы, по всей видимости в поискахолова – пожалуйста, не спрашивайте меня почему! Кельты были высокими,светловолосыми и голубоглазыми и сразу же забрали самых лучших девушек. Это,конечно, разозлило бедных Бриттов ещё больше, но они мало что могли сделать сэтим, учитывая, что у них были лишь палки и кулаки чтобы драться с ними. Кельтыобосновались на юге Англии, строя пепельные деревянные форты, которые бедныебритоголовые жители могли лишь проклинать в страхе и зависти. Теперь Англии нетак уж плохо жилось в течении следующих нескольких сотен лет. (если вы были высоким,голубоглазым и светловолосым). Затем в 55 г до н.э. великий Юлий Цезарь –звезда сцены и экрана – прибыл с парой легионов из Рима, Италии. Утончённыеримляне были отброшены, более, чем один раз, яростными кельтами. Они, тем неменее, вернулись спустя год с большей, лучше экипированной армией – и угадайтечто – были отброшены снова.
