Hence "sadly misinformed"

John,

At the risk of seeming petty, are you telling me I don't know the name of the group I train with almost every thursday, and that I am confusing them with a group I don't train with at al ?

Hmmmmmmmmm, am sure I can manage that...

Morrigan's long gone but "God's Company" is still going strong. They train every Thursday in Basingstoke, you need to contact Myk Dormer for details. If you PM me your details I will pass them on to him. I think the current committee & membership of The Hounds of the Morrigan would di...

I did read that there is a diffenate possibility of former Hussites fighting in the Hungarian armies against the Turks and Venetians that Matthew fella being keen to modernise and westernise his forces. I can dig that out and swop. It's not a possibility it's absolutely certain, the activities of J...

I enjoy working with God's Company but I find the backstory the give of being mercenary troops in the employ of Charles the Bold and Richard III a ridiculaous notion given that both men were very orthodox in their catholic credtionals, certainly in the case of Charles the Rash undertook the prosecu...

[quote="
Most of the hussites are actually from basingstoke, not hungary.[/quote]

Whist technically correct, we more importantly not from Bohemia either

Actually I'm not from Basingstoke either, in fact don't really live there

Nice kit, nice LotR vid, don't really like the symbol on the flag though...bit naff...

I thought the first photo shows off my natural good looks and even my sparkling personality shines through.

Errrr, isn't that what I said..?

Starts with a quite hideous picture I stopped there

And in No 6, Mr Harley contemplates knocking someone over...just because he's blocking the view of the camera...

No 74.

"Ever the gent', Very Tall Dave holds a chap up to stop Myk knocking him over..."

WOW

The (VERY) Lesser Spotted Speachless Dickie

Out of interest, who gets to play the King/Prince of Wales? Is there some kind of game of chance, or do they play that character at every gig their particular group attends? Thanks. Well for as long as I've been interested Simon & Rob from Sun in Splendour are Edward & Richard, then this we...

Some nice Mr Fox et al. It seems there were an awful lot of Sir Geoffrey shying away from engaging the Hussittes :twisted: :twisted: and despite the numerous times we knocked him over, none of Rochester on the ground :twisted: :twisted: Now if that doesn't guarantee me a few good scraps at Joust I d...

Fantastic, wish i had the time for that...

So this is my future...the sword is as tall as she is...

Got to agree with Nigel again on this one; I announced over a year ago that the Battle of Bannockburn 2007 would be held on the 23rd and 24th of June 2007 so I am somewhat unsure about where the confusion lies. Then nothing for 9 months, that is not how the re-enactment business works, and to be hon...

Don't worry matey, I'll be back to my normal cantankerous self by TORM no-doubt...

Wa-hey!!! Four months to go, I'm sure nobody has even thought about what events they're attending in June yet...[sigh] As for 10,000 MoPs, that for one event I would question, it is an awful lot of people... hey-ho, why am I worried, I don't plan on going this year, it would have been nice if NTS ha...

Err...don't count me in that 8 mate, as much as I would love to support Bannockburn, this year it clashes with an event I could walk to quicker than drive to Bannockburn, an event I KNOW is on...

Chrisanson,

That sounds like a good idea, however hoarders like myself seldom pass anything on, so that may fail.

Marcus,

Would you could do is start a thread with a list of those books you may be willing to pass on/or lend and request a moderator to make it a sticky...

Must get that, an excellent adaptation, it's a shame they didn't make a series of them...

wow! the trailer looks brilliant!! what rating is it? lidi :D Well, the US trailer is rated R, so if'n we're really unlucky they'll edit and turn it into a 15 here, :( Or leave it and we'll have an 18 :lol: Having said that, teh Z-ster, Sam and I went to see Blood Diamond on sunday and some guy had...
