[Ansteorra] On the topic Ragnar

[Brian & Pam Martin]

A Bjornsborg event is where you want to go if you want great Ragnar stories
- either stories, songs and poems written by Ragnar, or stories *about*
Ragnar. Find me at an event some time and I'll tell you about the time that
Ragnar met the first blonde in Norway. That would be a story that was
written about Ragnar by one of his friends. And with friends like that...

Anyway, go to any Bjornsborg event, go to the tavern and just ask for a
Ragnar story. You'll be entertained all night.

I have only been in the SCA since the mid '90's, but Ragnar's stories are 
still talked about with awe and wonder.

Could a place and time be designated for the recounting of his tales as a
living remembrance? Possibly at Argent?

Has anyone who personally heard them compiled a book(let) of them? Could
that be a project for someone familiar with them to take on for the
Ansteorran Argent? The booklets could be sold for some Kingdom project. (If
so, please put me down for one of the first copies?)

Just curious.
