Today's brief glimpse into Medieval sources: 580 years ago today, a ship's captain and three merchants from Rouen in Normandy appeared before a court in Bergen, Norway, after their ship was seized by the local royal representative in Karmsundet, near present Haugesund, Norway. The merchants said they were heading for London, but had been blown off course.
The court asked: "Are you absolutely sure you're not pirates or spies??" They answered definitely not, just heading for London.
