His Lordship Hucbald, from the Barony of Seagirt, was kind enough to take some photos while he assisted with this demo at the Comox Valley Fall Fair on August 25-26, 2007. We are grateful that he has made these available for some of us to re-live the memories, and the rest to wish we were there!

In past years, this community event has clashed with Island branch events, so we are pleased that this year has worked out so well. In particular, we are delighted and honoured that people came from as far as Seagirt to help us give a good public presentation. We are grateful to: Baron and Baroness of Seagirt, James and Glynis, and their children; Baron Uilliam and Patrika Theocharista; HL Hucbald, HL Morgaine, and their children; HL Reann ingen Chearbhail; HL Alan and Lady Mikala; HL Ekaterina. From Hartwood, we thank HL Misha. We are also delighted that locals went to great efforts in set-up, take-down, and demo: HL Meredith of the White Cliffs, HL Ulric Fredrickson, HL Aleyn, HL Anicia, Annya, Lord Aelfgar Ulricsson, Arrianna, Lord Charles, HL Halima, and HL Doireann Dechti. Our most heartfelt thanks to all of you; it could not have worked so well without you.
