Bloody frigilantes have struck again, so I'm striking back...

This time they've thrown out my jar of jam.
Clearly an opened jar of jam is a threat to the health and safety of the rest of the items in the fridge. The monthly cleanout took place while I was on holiday.
Every one of my coworkers who uses the fridge has complained about losing stuff (of course, being English, they only moan to each other, rather than actually complaining to the person responsible, who might be able to do something).

I was so irritated I went to the woman who runs the cleanout and complained - no English restraint!
I do my part to keep the kitchen tidy - I don't leave cups in the sink, I don't open the dishwasher, I clean up the microwave after myself - and I really resent losing my stuff when I'm not here. It's always stuff that doesn't go bad - butter, jam, coffee. If it can keep for a year in my fridge, I'm damned to see how it cannot keep at work.

She said 'I'm acting under orders' (like this was some military operations!) and to go tell the head of services.
Apparently she's not willing to take responsibility of something as minor as cleaning a fridge.
I said you're the one doing it! I should talk to you.
She said well maybe you'd like to do it, and see what the problems are...
So I said yes, glad to, no problem.
I then wrote to the head of services to explain I'm volunteering, after she'd graciously suggested that I take on the role.

No answer yet, from either.

Robert's ceremony, complete with pictures

As many know, my lord Robert haunts the Armour Archive, fighting the good fight for authentic kit, tournament styles and general passion for the 14th century.

As his friends started a thread to congratulate him, he posted a copy of the ceremony, and has included photos taken by Lady racaire .
I must say she and Lord Vrenk are terrific event photographers: I didn't even see them, and yet they have some splendid pics of the ceremony!

Gerhardt and Judith are K&Q: court herald is nusbacher on one side. Heralding the pelican ceremony is Sir Garrick von Kopke, OP, who did a great job of shepherding non-Latin speakers through several Latin responses and multiple regalia steps.

Robert's speakers were
Master Floris von Montfort from the Low Countries, on behalf of the Pelicans;
Master Etienne Fevre, on behalf of the Laurel circle, who spoke of his works in pewtering and his generosity of spirit in donating tokens for awards and events;
HG Sir Alaric of Bangor, for the Chivalry, who spoke of Robert's continuing work to support the fighting community in Thamesreach and ID with fight practices, armouring and training;
and HG Mistress Nerissa de Saye, Lady of the Rose, who spoke of his courtesy towards all ladies.

Scroll down the thread to find the account of the ceremony, with pictures.

No ceremony is exactly as is on paper, but this is awfully close. Of course, neither does it convey the solemnity, the lovely music, and the pleasure we took in seeing this ceremony, or the joy Gerhardt and Judith took in performing such a ceremony.

Nerissa also covered the story, including a nice pic of two of us,laughing, and again at dinner.
