Brother Cadfael Award
« on: 2013-10-22, 21:14:32 »
Hello, 

Ok I admit it. I will not be receiving this year's Brother Cadfael Award for medieval detective work.
I have been a forum member for a number of months and I just noticed that Sir Wolf's  picture has him as a captive!

Who holds Sir Wolf?  Has his ransom been raised? What dastardly evildoer would dare capture a member of the order?

Boy do I need to pay closer attention to details.

Timothy

PS Sir Wolf, Another picture of you in Roman kit . Is that you at Roman Days?

I think that's his shield's giuge (sp?) strap around his neck,  not a leash ;)

Perhaps he's a prisoner of his own love of history. ;)

Y'know, if I were a history teacher and had Sir Wolf's most impressive wardrobe, I could have some serious fun with my classes. 8)

Sir Patrick is correct, it's a shield strap around his neck. His avatar is from when we did an Order of the Marshal photo shoot back in May, and we had a group "charge" across the field.

Thanks all.

So Sir Wolf was that other picture of you at Roman Days? I when there a number of times. I would have been the large round Roman senator with the Nova Roman people.
