Drove the school minibus
full of young knights and princesses to Richmond to visit the castle and had a
lovely time exploring the ruins and the grounds, with most of my attention
directed to (with names changed to protect the innocent): Princess Limpet who
stuck to my side throughout through choice and Princess Naughty who was
compelled to do so by the teacher; Sir Trottalot who, despite being unsteady on
his feet, refused his wheelchair and skipped merrily across the cobbles with me
hanging on to his wrist; and finally two knights (Sir Plus-Energy and Sir Feit
of Vim) who fought with mismatched weaponry that forced one of them to abandon
his foam rubber sword and rely instead on bashing his opponent with his wooden
shield.
