is this where we get that slightly threatening phrase 'how do like them apples!'
However i think dear old Dio may have a point. If 5000 hairy Britons charged at me armed with nothing but apples i'd be worried. I'd have to assume that they either had some sort of some secret weapon or that they were acting as a distraction so that the real soldiers, armed with sharpened mangos perhaps(a la Blackadder goes forth) could attack me in the rear.
