Hi all,

Ok here is the final rendering of my new arms. We will look at it on the refrigerator for three weeks and then decide if I will keep it or not.

If Latin was period for us our Personae would be Una Salus Victus, but right now it's  Keinmal Mehr.

Looking good!  I like the idea of a “refrigerator test”.

That is some cool heraldry. I like it! Let us know in a few weeks how the refrigerator test goes.
Per pale azure and argent, an eagle displayed per pale argent and sable, armed and langued or.

So a Norman, a Saxon, and a Viking walk into England....
