The Round Table

Just websurfing and I came across this. I think it's interesting.

The large wooden table in the Great Hall at Winchester dates from no earlier than the thirteenth century, when it may have been made at the command of King Edward III, who was considering a revival of the Round Table as an order of chivalry.

They needed a round table with everybody close together so they could stop their chivalrying in the drafty castles.

But it's hump week so we'll all stop chivalrying soon enough, right?
