Guys, i have a confession to make .. about archery

Featured Replies

Posted

I'm a member of a medieval reenactment group. The first thing i tried was archery of course. Problem was that the first two shots earned me a 15 cm bruise on the arm because i could hold the flaming thing well enough.

 

So now, i'm part of their infantry where i fight with two daggers (i'm still as strong as a shrimp, so broadsword are not made for me).

 

Who would have known that in real life, infantry would suit me best ? :tongue:

Hi, welcome back!

 

There's an easy solution, nods.

 

Become an assassin and choose the daggers :happy:

 

See, Archers cater for everyone

i hadn't thought about that :tongue:

 

well, being an assassin is going to be my next goal then ^_^

 

first, i'll need to drink some more flaming shots to remember what rank i was before ...

I can probably find that out for you hun!

 

Oh and I had some of the nastiest bruises from using a bow without an arm guard. Makes me want to cry thinking about it! I feel your pain! Lol

Looked it up. You are currently a lieutenant at 104 pts. 1 point away from Sr. Lt.

Thanks a lot Brid :biggrin:

 

That sounds like it's time for a couple of reviews ... *rolls sleeves*

 

 

(and an arm guard sounds like a good piece of equipement to borrow for my next try out, indeed !!! lol)

I tried archery once....with plastic bows and arrows at church camp.....we were all terrible at it lol

 

Welcome back Chaelca! Been too long!!

hey ! good to see you too :biggrin:

 

I'm no good with plastic bows either, seeing that my clumsiness is at least at level 30 ! lol

lol I thought we'd get to use real bows and arrows but those are 'too dangerous for church camp'.....

 

Anyways, looks like you're settling back in nicely! :biggrin:

i'm trying to, i'm trying to ^_^ (and it's not hard to do when there're nice people around)

 

and as i have another week off to go ... i have the opportunity to be online a lot

it is so sweet to have the time to relax, even if it's at home, with an disastrous weather outside XD

 

 

you're on break too ?

Yep, I'm a teacher so go back to work on Jan 3rd! But last week was still pretty busy with the holidays!

It was sent 4 days ago, but no response yet - give them one more day before bugging them?

i would definitely choose Lilly indeed

 

(that would bring me less virtual bruises during virtual practices i think) :biggrin:

Wasn't nagging you,

 

Sorry if it seemed I was, just excited to possibly finally get a lily convert :smile:

 

Don't see anything you said as nagging... **Nods** But we do need more brothers/sisters of the lily if she prefers daggers and is up for it.

i'm totally up to it !

as i said, i have real ones at home to play with :3

 

 

would that mean that there're more roses than lillies ?

  • Author

well ! u'll get one as soon as i can see the board :tongue:

 

*grabs her goggles*

  • Author

well, seeing i'll probably end the year in the public board, i'll take the advantage of this thread to wish you all a happy new year and a great party tonight. :biggrin:

 

gonna need time and concentration to prepare the dessert for tonight : macaroons and this

 

gateau-fondant-chocolat-mousse-baileys-L

 

so i guess i'll be more in my kitchen than in front of my compy ! lol
