<div>Master Robin,</div>
<div> While I would love to take credit for the victory in both melees, it was actually HRH Etain who double killed against a "World" fighter to give Gilwell the win in the first melee. I was merely one of the two left standing. It was a pleasure fighting for the House of Gilwell and was great to fight with our gueast from Oertha. She was a really fun fight! Thank you Robin.</div>

<br>Special thanks to Lady Jaquelinne Marguerite de la Ryver and Baron Enoch Crandall MacCranon, who marshaled for us.<br><br>The challenge was fought twice, once with HR and once with epees, so everybody could take part.<br>
<br>And Gilwell won them both. It's great to be able to do at age 53 what I first did at 24.<br><br>I'd like a list of all particpants. If you fought, please email me at rudin at <a href="http://ev1.net/" target="_blank">ev1.net</a>, and tell me which side you fought on.<br>
<br>Thanks again. I had a great time.<br><br>Robin of Gilwell / Jay Rudin <br>_______________________________________________<br>Ansteorra-rapier mailing list<br><a href="mailto:Ansteorra-rapier@lists.ansteorra.org" target="_blank">Ansteorra-rapier@lists.ansteorra.org</a><br>
