I will be travelling northward to the Barony of Namron to visit 
the great Bard, Master Ulf Gunnarson.  When I announced that I 
would be coming, he decided to hold a revel.  The fact that the
two are occuring on the same weekend implies to me that the revel
is being held in my honor, and I will therefore feel free to claim
at least one hug from all the ladies.

I will attempt to set into my head the lyrics of "Born on the Listfield," that
marvelous song which is taught only with the understanding that the words never be
transmitted via recording.
Sadly, this includes written form, so I cannot share it with you here.
The story of the song is that Master Ivar Battleskald was sitting
around a campfire one night when the Knights were discussing the 
state of chivalry, mostly in regretful tones.  Master Ivar started 
to make a comment to the contrary, but was interrupted by a Duke 
from another kingdom who said, "What do you know of Chivalry?  You 
are only a Master, not a Knight!"  Ivar contained his anger and left
the fire.  When he returned a half hour later, he sang this song...
Thenceforeward, none could question Ivar's understanding of Chivalry.

Wishing you all as pleasant a weekend as I have in store,
   Siade the 
      "recently posted jokes about nude pix of HRM Sara Penrose"
         Bard

(aka the Bad Bard of Elfsea)
