She had an wonderful display = and if Dohmnall brings pictures to populace, you might get to see.  There was a very large number of entrants - 40 or 50 I'd say.  The competition was very tough - and very experienced.  Many of these artisans had been working at their craft for years.  It is a great honor to participate in a competition with such talent.

Lord Dohmnall was very helpful assisting many of the artisans with setting up and tearing down their displays.  I thank him and I hope they did also - it can be very nerve racking putting these together.  For some of us it can take 1-2 hours just getting things set up.

Vivat to Lady Julianna and Lord Dohmanll
