It was believed that he was a doctor. The origins of "Doctor Foster" are reputedly lie in English history dating back to the Plantagenet monarchy of the 13th century when King Edward 1 ("Doctor Foster") was thought to have visited Gloucester and fell from his horse into a large muddy puddle! He is said to have been so humiliated by this experience that he refused to ever visit Gloucester again! King Edward 1 (June 17, 1239 – July 7, 1307) was a powerful man, over six foot tall - hence his nickname of Longshanks. Edward built many castle - fortresses in Wales as part of his strategy to conquer the Welsh who were lead by Llywelyn ap Gruffydd - Edward succeeded and Llywelyn became the the last Prince of an independent Wales (c.1223 – 11 December 1282). As a matter of interest Owain Glendwr was the last Prince of Wales, as Owain IV of Wales (c.1354 or 1359 – c. 1416).

And thereby began the hatred of the English that exists to this very day. I think he did the same job on Scotland as well.
Pathetic when you think about it. One small island 1/25 the size of Texas contains 3 separate countries which have hated each other for nearly 1,000 years. And yet, we get involved trying to resolve overseas conflicts! :o

He'll be going to a cosmetic surgeon and a hairdresser after last night :)
Never argue with an idiot. He will bring you down to his level and beat you with experience.
