I know there's a place somewhere in Hatfield where you can do broadsword fighting as well - I don't have any information on it though.

Now THAT would be cool.

Archery! Aw, damn, I haven't been shooting in ages. There's no local range, and I never got around to buying my own bow because the club I went to back in NI loaned out to members.

I would really appreciate that, Nevan.

Scottish claymore, eh? Those things are huge!

I have a rather old and cheap short sword at home, but yeah...

Hmm.
I have reason to believe that a member of this board may have unconsciously modelled their personality on that of Lord Illingworth in Oscar Wilde's "A Woman of No Importance".

It would not suit the character of a lady to name such names. Though lady I scarely am, I do pride myself on what remaining traits I may possess

*whispergossipwhisper* Though interestingly, you rogue and ungentlemanly gentleman, you do bear some resemblance to Lord Illingworth yourself...

*grins* Although I behave within reasonable constraints as to not hurt any females feelings intentionally. You got me curious nonetheless.
Oh no.. the sudden urge to get everything with Oscar Wilde looms dangerously in the air.

I wonder if I should find food? It's almost 7pm, and all I've had is Morrison's Value Own Brand crisps.

House is empty.
Bah. I must build a soup-making automaton.
Now, where'd I leave my Swiss Army Knife and coil of wire?

My bloody IM totally died. Oh the joy...

*pokes at it* Oi! You're not a bloody parrot, you're NOT dead! You're not pushing up the daisies, and you're not just resting.
