I was an 18 year old blond, oh, ten years ago B)

Remind me never to bid against Kass. She's the Empress for a reason after all.

Chole, you could try throwing some cheese into the bargain B)

But even if Kass wins, don't worry, you can still rent me apparently B)

(And Foxe has just realised that Kass's 18 year old blonde won't be at RF2, let the bidding continue!)

Oh, think you're pretty smart, doncha there Foxe? You know I'm grooming 18-year-old-blonde to take over my Empire when I'm gone. So it doesn't really matter if she finishes high school, does it? B)

And by all means, let the bidding continue! There will be no exclusivity arrangements here. Foxe is a free agent, available to all comers... I mean takers... I mean... B)

Oh boy... B)

What a question, Cheeks! Do you want him not to come to RF2 at all? First you offer him partially attached women and then you offer him women with baggage?!?!? B)

Good Lord, woman, what kind of selling point is that?! B)

We may have to renegotiate his entire contract now... :)

Ah, Mr. Foxe, I hail from the great state of Wisconsin. If it's cheese ye want, tis cheese ye shall have!

I think between Kass jesting at my intelligence, and Cheeky offering me baggage, that the bidding rests with Chole - corrupt and with cheese... mmmm

And guys, by which I mean ladies, there's really no need for the "Mr", plain old "Foxe" will do.

I actually shaved my moustache down, and forgot when we went for a post-party breakfast at the cafe over the road.... My friends thought the kindest thing to do was not tell me... (The really frightening thing is that if I shave my moustache down and brush my hair from the side I really do look like the Fuhrer!)

The previous two times I grew a mustache, when I removed it, I left that signature bit in the middle to see the Hitler Effect. All the while, I was rather nervous that a sudden fire would force me out into the street with a Hitler mustache.

How long ago and where in Scotland did you stay, Cap'n Pete? It's been over 20 years since I've been. Always looking forward to going back one day..first to Glasgow then to Coatbridge and Dundee to see my kith and kin!

My wife and I took my oldest daughter in 2000; we stayed a week. My sister was living there at the time (her husband got a 2-year gig working in Scotland), so we stayed with her. I would have to review rail maps to remember exactly where we were -- I recall it was less than an hour to ride via rail into Edinburgh.

I was able to stand on ground walked by my direct ancestors, documented in my carefully researched family history. Good Times.

With camera in hand, if we can get the likes of Generals Grant and or Lee to turn pirate...... Or even just give a good "GaarrRRR!" for the camera!!!

--------

Hmmmm since Mr. March knows both "Grant and Lee", and Lee has already seen the pictures from Lockhouse... I think a Garrr might actually be all to easy....

ACTUALLY, Mister March and I had them all -- Grant, Lee, Custer, and others -- talking like pirates after the sun went down... and after the Apple Jell-O Shots went down.

Hey Chole,

We both live in the Cheese State..here's an idea. I'll bring the mini-van instead of the BMW and you and I can stop at the local Cheese shack and stock up...Beloit is just at the edge of IL. We could drive down together B)

DISCOUNT ROOMS ALMOST GONE

For those of you, who are wishing to attend Reenactors Fest II, please make sure that you book your rooms as soon as possible!

I have been informed as of today (November 22, 2006) that the block of discount rooms are almost gone. Please make sure that you reserve your lodgings for this event.

You need not worry about your credit card being charged early – for the hotel does not charge your credit card until you check out.

So don’t delay or you’ll have to pay!

Okay...question...what if the individual has 'baggage?"  And does it matter if it's metal or physical?

I've got two ladies here asking over my shoulder.... B)

Baggage Cheeks? Surely Mr. Foxe doesn't want to deal with your issues?? As for the blonds in my crewe, both are under my protection, although if the Govenor's daughter wishes to put herself into the bidding, I can only but warn her... B)

Here she is in pink Regency... and talk about baggage, you need a ship for all her trunks, glove boxes, hat boxes, jewels, ect, but she does like to do her research (I believe she is studying fashion history) but Foxe, if you could win her favour, that 300,000 pounds might be doable for her.... B)

That's not what you said when you were testing that special Cat o' Nine Tails on me!

Have you got any idea how hard it is to say, "Mister" around a ball gag?

Sounds like, "Miffah Foawa, yeff Miffah Foawa."

I'll never forget that as long as I live.

Hmmmm Mr. Foxe, trying to sell me used goods are ye?? Good thing I've held onto my coin B)

I think we shall see a lot of them at RF2. Actually we are hoping Andy can convince Uncle Larry, Grant, to play Mr. Symms... he would be just perfect for the part... B)

She won't need gloves, jewels, or hats for what I've got in mind B) (though sadly I suspect you were being metaphorical when you listed her baggage)

...but she's got a couple of assets. And the 300 grand will come in handy. Any chance I could get paid in advance?

If she's into Regency perhaps I ought to wear this outfit?

Now that would be...ahem.. right up her alley, although she will be properly outfitted for circa 1690s for RF2... but it might not hurt to tuck that in your baggage.... B)

As to paying in advance, I am quite certain that we could work something out... B)

Dear Captain...you did not read my post properly...I was not speak for myself, but regarding others...

As for the Govn'rs daughter...she was the 'center' of attention last year. Poor thing couldn't move without having the Cold Stream Guard at her side at every waking moment....not to mention the RAF...and the 2nd Panzer Unit and....Gosh, am I forgetting anyone else?! ;)

Well then...I better be prepared for a chamber pot to be tossed in my direction...and he better be prepared for a good thrashing!

Oh, I can hear him now..."Murder! Murder!" Yes, it will be like old times! ;)
