Most people that lived back then, and led a hard life out in the open, would probably not be considered beautiful people by today's standards. Viking age women probably looked like Bjorn Borg in drag.

Bunch of abusive drunks right up both sides, not much reading to be done there. I don't drink much, but I write.
