<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>One thing comes to mind with the comparison that
has been made to Queens... How many here besides the Rapier fighters know there
is a "Bow Out"</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Usually when there are between 8 to 12 fighters
left in the list at Queens you will see the fighters gather with her Majesty.
This is the "Bow out" Her Majety thanks all those gahtered there and invites any
who are not able to fufill her expectations as her Champion to step aside. No
Harm No Foul, No Disgrace for knowing your own capabilities. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>We have nothing like that in Eisteddfodd. Perhaps
this is one reason why why we have less competitors. If before the judges choos
the finalist all are given the oportunity.....</FONT></DIV>
