Szekesfehervar - Like Coppull, but Better
Earlier in the week you might have seen the post that shows Coppull is twinned with Szekesfehervar (of that Hungary). Well it got me thinking, wouldn't it be brilliant for Anglo-Hungarian relations if I could recreate a typical 24hrs of my twin town, in Coppull.Research will be key, so the most salient facts I have gleaned in the recreation of a Coppull / Szekesfehervar Superstate are.
1. Hungarian Kings were crowned there quite regularly. 43 kings and 39 Queens
2. The name means White Castle with Seat
3. The place repelled the Mongol invasion.
4. Major industry is Bus manufacturing.
So to recreate this, I take it upon myself to organise the Castle, the Crown...Bus Manufacturing - what I need are some Mongols that I can repel. If you are free for some Mongol action this week, drop me a comment.

I had a hungarian stay with me for a while, he was from Szekesfehervar, his name was Zoltan Oromy! He also borrowed a pair of my pants, however he was about 3 foot taller than myself so he looked rather strange, yet he seemed to love them, it's now part of their national dress!

Hi Anonymous,
I am Zoltan who got those pants. Thank you again for them, they did me a good turn in 1993. All the best, Zoli
