Their site looks pretty good. I didn't see where they're located though. I probably just missed it.

I think they are based in Queensland, Australia if I read it correctly; they have affiliations with the Brisbane Medieval Faire, as well as the Queensland Living History Federation so I think it is safe to assume so.

Lutwyche. QLD. 4030 ... I think Queensland is right. They have a very nice site.

But why is it rampant? Always with the rampant. Never statant. :)

Nice site.  I love the illuminated frames.

Sir James,

Because its way cool!  Especially for us who are lucky enough to have them on our arms.

Tongue-in-cheek joke for me, as my arms are statant. :)

But yes, rampant is way cool!
