Oh. Richard was Duke of Gloucester, though part of the house of York. Well....never thee mind, then. I thought the "son/sun of York" was referring to Edward IV. It is, but it's Richard, Duke of Gloucester saying the line. And being he's from the house of York, it seemed fitting to the thread, especially since some pretty--um--unhappy stuff happens to him later on.

Yeah good idea to temporarily retire the title for a generation or two. (0) Funniest 33 minutes ago Solty Dog: Just make a new one. Duke of Cardiff Duke of Hull Duke of Bolton All work just fine.
