Celtic Fling @ PARF

So who is attending? I'm still not sure since my Fae wife cannot decide between Celtic fling or the NYFF. The Celtic fling would not require a hotel but would also mean no armor. NYFF would require a hotel and armor would be a good probability. Oh well I must wait to see which milady decides.  ;)

Why no armor at PARF, Sir Brian?

Not really sure I want to load it all up in the car for a day trip. I only wore armor three times at VARF and two of them were day trips that really take a lot out of me since I have to partially unload the car when I get back home or have a major rust problem on my various plate pieces.  :-\

I'm in agreement, definitely need a squire...had a helluva time dressing myself at VARF.  And locking my keys in the car in mid-disrobe was just par for the course.  lol

What's the fun in that?  I like having to scour and polish, scour and polish, scour and polish...although, if I factor in the time involved - the actual cost of stainless, I may owe myself more than I think- so I don't think about it.  Much.

Hmm.  Not sure about that one; my daughter turns 17 on Thursday and she wants to come home for the weekend...who knows, we might make it but I am thinking mayhaps not.
