    Has anyone else got a coat of Arms ?

    in the early mid sixties possibly even as late as 66 when I watched ENGLAND TRIUMP[H whilst sitting in my uncles bar on the "seafront" at Dundee supping the local ale..the game then was a fixture that all the locals supported, ENGLAND ...how things change!

    our motto is " endure fort" it has a shield, either side lions, a crown rests on the shield on top of which is a helmet similar to the city one, on top is a second crown in which a swan sits with its wings partly spread. flowing from under this second crown is furl of ermine..I will try and get a photo up

    I've got a coat with arm sleeves? but im pretty sure every coat has this so it's nothing to brag about.

    My Dad was Lord Williams of Bermondsey. Grew up in an era when kids played their footy in the street with jumpers for goalposts
    and newspaper for shin pads.
    Used to play for Islington Schoolboys when the Arsenal were England's nobility
