Greetings Populace!
So the Seneschal’s Handbook is actually a pretty good read. If you’d like to know a little
bit more about how your group is run, I highly recommend it.
First of all, I’d like to thank Dragons Bay for having me and offering support; especially
Lady Imagina. I still ask her what’s what for every single new thing that happens. I’m sure
I’ll get there. And on the way, I hope I can come up with cool ideas to help improve
everyone’s game. We are always building on what came before, and with each new thing
we bring to the group, be it an event or regalia, we make it even better.
The festive season is coming and spring events will be springing. If you have ideas for
enriching the experience, please attend Council meetings, or submit your ideas to
[email protected] to be added to the Agenda.
Yours in service,
Lady Avalon of the Isle

Heavy Combat training has
started at Dragon’s Lair
Sunday 27th November 2016 saw the start of Heavy Combat training at Dragon’s Lair,
thanks to Gotz von Hamelin, Konrad Hildebrand and Sigmund Gabrielis.
We had a lively training session, with three newcom-
ers joining in, so much so that archery training took a
back seat, as the rest of us were interested spectators.
Gotz and Sigmund got into full kit and unfortunately,
due to the heat and very smoky environs on the day, a
halt was called after several enthusiastic bouts.
It is planned for Heavy Combat training to continue
and training days will happen every fortnight at Drag-
on’s Lair, along with the usual Archery training.
The next training date will be Sunday 18th December,
from 9.30am.
As this will be the last training date for 2016, for both
Archery and Heavy Combat, training will start again
on Sunday 15th January 2017, at Dragon’s Lair, start-
ing at 9.30am. Archery training will continue as before, (every Sunday, unless an event
is happening). Heavy Combat training will happen each fortnight, unless otherwise
advertised.
