Since everyone else is...

I spent Valentine's day at work, then hustled home to go to fencing practice for the first time since September, to get poked all over - both my opponent and I are hopelessly out of shape and practice.
Romantic? not terribly. But I was really, really pleased to be back at practice. I came away happy to be poking and being poked, for the first time in ages. I'd honestly forgotten how much fun it was, even when I'm getting absolutely pummelled.
After Crown, I have to haul out my cut and thrust kit plans, and see if I can outfit myself with suitable leg armour, and possibly better arm protection, in time for the Templecombe demo in Somerset. Can't see doing it before then, not and still get my sweetie gussied up suitably for the event.
We then decamped to the pub, where we raised a pint with Alaric and his squire Alex - Alaric is moving back to his first homeland of Lochac soon, and Alex's visits are only occasional, so it was a good time for a drink.
Alaric and Nerissa will leave a huge hole in our shire; it's the curse of Drachenwald.
larmer and family are due to visit next month! Hurrah. I'm hoping to take a bit of time off in March so hopefully I'll be able to spend some time with them.
