<DIV>This is to add to the "you know your in the SCA when".....</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>These past two weeks at my youngest sons school. They have been doing
Medieval studies.</DIV>
<DIV>He has brought to school drop spindles, two kinds of looms and various
others items.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Today I left work early so that I could go and watch the jousting
tournament and melees'. Watching the mock battles between teams, I hear Matthew
yell " No head shots, I don't have a helm on". Yielding cardboard
shield and a wrapping paper roll sword, he battles on.</DIV>
<DIV>How ever they tallied up points his team won. When they announced it he
yelled</DIV>
<DIV>"Victory to Ansteorra, Vivat Anstoerra!. No one had a clue as to what he
was yelling about.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>As he came off the field I hold him he did good---"Of course" he says "we
Ansteorrians don't take kindly to being invaded!"He did have a point
there.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>We were walking home with his Friend Andrew, Andrew told me he was Sir
Lancelot. I asked Matthew who he was? His reply; "I was The Bloody Baron,
Baron Armanda, you know Alex's dad".</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Need I say more.</DIV>
