By the way, yesterday I was reading a story about Merlin at 7 o`clock.
Merlin is one of the most fascinating figures in British mythology. He was wizard, a poet, a teacher, and an advisor to kings. His story is full of mystery and magic. In the 6_th century the Kings of Britian were fighting great battles with foreign enemies. News of Merlin`s and magical abilities reached King Uther and he became the King`s advisor. Even today, people wonder if Merlin was more than just a character of medeival stories. Merlin real or not, but people whenever they hear his story.
