True, but unfortunately we have a problem with spiralling cost over here
anway. Unless we can get a site subsidised or 'free' (the
Scandinavians often
can), we have to economise where we can to keep the fee from being about
double what it would have been five years ago. Feast budgets have had
to take
cuts, and in that situation I'd rather spend the money on food than
paper.

I'd still like to do it properöy one day, though.

Ohhhh. Thank you. This is the first I've heard of this. Stuff like  
this from Drachenvald doesn't often filter back to here.

Perhaps you could sell the booklets to those that would be  
interested? I know that I often would be.

In my barony, we get our newsletters copied for free at a local copy  
center. They've done this for a number of years. We've recently been  
experimenting with eliminated mailed subscriptions and handing out  
the newsletters at fighter practices and meetings which further  
decreases  our costs. Perhaps you can find a copy center that would  
be willing to donate the copying. I'm not sure if we get both the  
paper and the copying for free or just the copying.

Also I know that several folks in my barony, including myself, can  
copy limited amounts of material at work for free, provided we don't  
overdo it. Perhaps you have folks in your group who can do the same.

Unfortunately, we don't have the option of renting real castles and  
such here, no matter what the cost. :-(
