My thoughts on
Pikeman's Pleasure '99
'What a very hot day. It was a quiet afternoon. Most of the people we travelled with were hot and quietly self absorbed all day.
I wore my casual attire to this place and had no end of troubles. Reminder to self...fix pants so they will stay where they're supposed to.
Tournament was wonderful to watch. Lord Evander did himself proud as usual. Who could expect less from the King's Champion? His demeanor during battle is almost always one of honour....although I do not pretend to understand this new code of honour I'm being exposed to. It certainly is different from the stories of my Viking ancestors.
Court was a new experience for me..we (Captain Kane and I) don't usually attend.
The Sexiest Lord's legs contest was MOST amusing. My Lord Isaiah entered but alas was not chosen as winner. I gather his legs are appreciated by myself alone..which isn't necessarily bad...however Lord Evander placed in the contest..big surprise there...and it was won by Lord Damian. Who admittedly does indeed possess a fine pair of legs. :)
The feast was as I have come to expect from this particular gathering ...excellent....if not extravagant. No one certainly walked away still suffering from hunger pangs that is to be sure.
Of all the regular gatherings we attend this one is one of my personal favourites.'
