Coronation..

[Nancy Bradford-Reid]

>> There were *lots* of awards (with a bunch (19?) of Knights holding the
>> sword of state during the first court; I only saw about a half a dozen
>> during the coronation court) including a Laurel for Ariela (sp),
>> something for Moriel (if I remember correctly), and the new Baron and
>> Baroness of Stargate being announced. (Michael Silverhand and ???)
>
>> Probably lots more happened, but my memory ain't what it used to be.
>> (And get worse every day apparently.)

        Not a lady, but a good choice, none the less:  Sir Pendaran Glamorgan

>            2) Any other peers created? Who?

        Not to my knowledge, but then we left at the beginning of the last
        court.

>            3) Anything else affecting the entire kingdom? What?

        Again, not that I can recall, but someone else might remember more.

        Other than Iolo grabbing my ankles as I tried to extricate myself from
        the proceedings of Ariela's ceremony, I don't remember much other
than
        being really hot and tired--standing for hours in a corset and
        farthingale with some 20 pounds of dress on is not conducive to good
        memory.

        There was lovely live music, mostly provided by Bryn Gwlad--there were
        a few others, but don't know who they were.
