For those who might be vaguely interested, 'New Troy' refers to the city of London. Here is some 'information' that I found on the internet:
"Aeneas was a lieutenant of Hector in the Trojan War, and when the city was destroyed (after deployment of the Trojan Horse) he fled to Italy where the settlement he founded was later to become Rome. His grandson was named Brutus. The mother of Brutus died in childbirth and he accidentally killed his father in a hunting accident, so was banished for being 'unlucky'. He then set off in search of new lands. The defeated Trojans adopted him as their leader and they became collectively known as 'Britons'. They headed past the 'Pillars of Hercules' (the Straits of Gibraltar), and reached Albion. Albion was inhabited by an island race of giants. Corineus, a warrior of great repute, wrestled with the giant race's leader Gogmagog, before hurling him over the cliffs of Plymouth Hoe. Brutus and his Britons sailed up the Thames and founded a new city 'Troia Nova'."
The account above is not widely believed.
As you cannot have failed to notice, 52% of the people who voted in the UK's referendum on membership of the European Union decided that England was better off going it alone, somewhat like a spoilt, sulking child at a party. Whatever you may think of this 'decision', perhaps this is the time to enjoy a picture of London's financial district being simultaneously flooded and burnt down. Screen printed and hot-foiled with gold foil. Perhaps our overseas visitors might like to consider taking advantage of the low-value English 'pound' to purchase one of these artifacts?
