I have just got back from the tour, which finished at Caerleon Comprehensive today... so very appropriate for a book about King Arthur.<br /><br />That's an interesting theory, maryom. I was talking to someone today who says Camelot is a spiritual place you can carry in your heart, and not an actual place at all. Since nobody has yet found the ruins, that might make sense, too.Katherine Robertshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17196712319655603442noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5502671101756463249.post-75721562812894562652012-03-08T08:16:33.166+00:002012-03-08T08:16:33.166+00:00I favour a very bizarre theory that it was a corru...I favour a very bizarre theory that it was a corruption of Camulodunum (Colchester) - which would make him an Essex boy!maryomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18265044617480788043noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5502671101756463249.post-81724983151272179772012-03-06T22:08:09.429+00:002012-03-06T22:08:09.429+00:00Best of luck with the Welsh book tour.

Mordred being from Scotland rings a bell - wasn't he half-brother of Gawain, Agravaine,Gareth and Gaheris who came from Scotland? Can you tell that The Once and Future King was a favourite childhood read of mine? Your book looks terrific - great subject to choose.griselda heppelnoreply@blogger.com
