[Coastal] Tuesday chivalric fighter practice

I can certainly appreciate His Excellency Stargate's desire to continue 
with a Tuesday night practice at UH, but I wonder if that desire might 
change now that the Loch has changed the location of its Tuesday night 
practice to Randolph Park.  For Stargate to continue a Tuesday night 
practice at UH it would then compete with Loch's practice night.

I won't likely be able to make it to Randolph Park as regularly as I can 
UH (when I'm not taking PM classes at least) because the drive becomes a 
bit prohibitive for me on a weeknight.  I can (and still would) make a 
practice at UH either in addition to, or as a make-up for, the Sunday 
practice (I really want to get to two practices a week soon), but I 
think Tuesday night now becomes less than ideal if the Loch can't make 
it due to their own scheduled practice, as I'd think we would want them 
to be able to come out and play too.
