Greetings to the populace of Stormhold and surrounds.
We would just like to say thank you to everyone who has participated within the Barony and surrounds since we stepped up as Baron & Baroness in July this year.
You have all made us feel very welcome in these new roles and have been most willing to assist when needed, whether it be big or small.
And completing things nicely, the year finished on a high - with (as an oldtimer of Stormhold was heard to say) ".. one of the best William Marshal's in some years!" And was followed by an excellent day in the sun on the Sunday, with lots of archery & rapier (and we now have new moving targets stored in the Armoury).
We hope you are all well with plans under way for the coming festive season.
We had an excellent attendance at the November Monthly Bash, with 6 combatants contending the Heavy Tournament, with victory going to our Southern Duke, Sir Siridean.
We also had 4 combatants for the Rapier tournament, which Sir Siridean, as Earl Marshal, kindly supervised as Marshal, with a newcomer to the Barony, Connor, winning the day.
Greetings to the populace of Stormhold, including our Canton of Cairnfiel and our College of St Bartholemew (& our neighbours)
Well - we enter into interesting times.
