RF - Work Weekend and other Stuff

[thefort1 at pdq.net]

Lord Niklas,
    Lord Hunaric and I will work troll on Friday night from 8:00pm to 10:00pm.
Since our Tourney starts at 10, it will also be helpful for us because we can
take the list of participants and get started. I hope this is O.K. See you
Saturday!!!!!

In Honor and Oath,
Lord Leovigild
