English history is not covered much in Austrian schools. Caspar, Elizabeth and Mary will learn the names of all the rivers in Austria, all the farms in Maria Alm, but nothing about 1066 or Trafalgar. Fortunately, English history is very colourful and, for example, King Henry VIII and his 'groom of the stool' fascinate the children. The Groom of the Stool was an enviable position, which is a reflection of just how powerful the king was. This leads us to think, how on earth do we get the message across to Heyko that he is not the boss, when he poos and we pick it up.
