Re: If possible I would like to join the english

Johannes, If possible I would like to join your English roster. I fought last year with my knight Sir Angus and Hedinn. On a disappointing note, Sir Angus will not be arriving at Pennsic until the 2nd Tuesday, so I believe he is going to miss the 30. Thank you, Tobijasz, Squire of Sir Angus Oneail ...
