So, did anyone else see the rap-sheet from the Boars Breaste tavern?

I think I actually recall some of those people.  I'm sure that I have heard
of Hans the Tailor (good grief)  and I know we've had to deal with Joan
before.

Further investigation into certain "legitimate, honest-to-goodness" sources
in Bryn Gwlad's Library of St. Michael came up with this. I have condensed
the 349 entries for The Boars Breaste into a few of the more entertaining
ones. I have also updated spelling. Apparently this was a very popular
nightspot in medieval Bryn Gwlad.

A short but very interesting list. There is scribbling in the margins
concerning the possibility of  making a ledger just for the Boars' Breast.
Other scribbles in the margins tell of fines being waived for "favors" and
fights, especially between Jack and Rosie, in the constable's office itself.

Come join us at Bryn Gwlad's Le Grande Dispute as we try to recreate The
Boar's Breast in all it's seedy, vile infamy.
