Hay Hay its on Again hopefully this year we can actually drum up some attendance.

im Hoping to go tented and catered as the feast is awsome

I've got a nice, safe, winged spearhead if you're interested. You'd need to burn out the wood that's in the socket and remount it.

Ill chat to you about it when im back sounds good though

I've also got a couple of 2.6m staves for mounting it onto. They're made of "Australian Ash", I've been through three shafts so far. Spears are not designed for powerful strikes, they're much better at thrusting. They are weak at the mounting point, which is why later polearms have langets.

Are you selling the spear head and shaft?

I hope to have a quick visit on the 25th of Sept and come back properly on the 9th to test out my new armour :D\-<

Not selling, I do want the head back.  I'm not going to do anything with it until next year. I've paid for two swords from Albion, the first is now with a scabbard maker. It'll take the rest of the year to pay for the scabbards. That means my medieval budget is exhausted. But I do have a few of those shafts left, I'm not interested in mounting them, only to have them last a few trainings. So you're welcome to them, as long as I get the spear head back next year.

ok its confirmed I have a spare ticket to Naama is there someone who would like to have it? / someone who deserves it and cant afford?

ok sorry tickets CLAIMED :)
