If guinea pigs were vikings, William would be the glorious bastard child of Odin and Thor. He is probably part viking anyway. Here is a list of some of his favourite oaths. He has been using a lot more oaths since the advent of Theo. Because Theo is full of frustrating surprises. (29 and 31 are presents to William from @dangerfarm)
