Dear Alan, i certainly hadn't forgot it, it just seems not many people share the same enthusiasm for it as i do. Now, where have all those fair Maidens gone! :)

Do be careful OH. Remember what happened to the poor dragon.

On September the 5th, the Dragon was tried and convicted. His fire was put out and his maiden-devouring license revoked. Maiden devouring out of season is punishable by a term of not less than 50 or more than 300 years.

And even Old Dragons when it comes to it. :)

You'll have to come up North for the real fun.

St George's Day is being celebrated with events across England, including a dragon hunt and medieval combat training at a Lancashire castle.

Clitheroe Castle is hosting a three-day extravaganza over the Easter weekend, also including weapons and armour handling and storytelling.
