I will always dearly love how non-supportive my fencing team is, and how we can flip each other shit. Last night when fencing one of the twenty year-olds, they were shouting "Come on! He's an old man! He's slow and his knees are shot! Are you going to let him beat you like that?" #fencing

Saying goodbye to my old #fencing jacket. I first started fencing in 1999, then quit when I moved to Japan. I kept my gear thinking "someday" I would fence again After 25 years, I started fencing again. I was thrilled it still fit and hadn't kept it for nothing. I finally gave it honorable service.

Sigh... looks like my new Leon Paul lame is not going to make it in time for practice tonight. Although thinking it will arrive tomorrow when it is still in the UK is quite ambitious, UPS... #fencing

In these trying times, I highly recommend a combat sport. It is a great stress reliever to go fight people for a couple hours a week. #fencing

“Neither asked nor given…”

Written by Alan Sharp, & directed by Michael Caton-Jones, ROB ROY (1995) is an underappreciated gem of Scottish film. It also contains what is widely regarded as one of the best swordfights in cinema history

Just signed up for a swordsmandship class at a nearby martial arts dojo! The first class is on Saturday.

Funnily enough, it's in the building right next to the library, which is literally half a mile from my house :D I didn't even know there was a dojo there!

They're hosting a whole variety of classes throughout the year. This one is "Rapier and Dagger Combat". I'm looking forward to "Rennaissance Longsword" and "Hollywood Swashbuckling"
