text: are repairs to my longboats, axes and horned helmets  tax deductable?   hi eric, going on a saga tour again? all you need to do is tax the citizens of northumbria- tell them its the 'danegeld' or something like that (a bit like poll tax but less iniqutous!). how's asgaard btw? give my regards to your dad harald and all the brothers you murdered! incidentally, horned helmets were never a must-have fashion accessory for your average viking raider.why d'you think we got such a bad rap for all that looting, pillaging and rape btw? something to do with the names perhaps?                           sincerely yours,                             thorfin skullsplitter.
