As you travel to the mountain, there may be people ahead of you. You may pass some of these people on the way, and some of them may pass you. You are all going to the same place, so it is as well to be civil to each other on the journey!
Good luck on your journey, I hope that our paths cross, and we may travel together for a time!
If you touch my Llama, I WILL kill you!

Excellent vids!
I have an obsession with all things Celtic, so Celtic fighting arts are something I am really keen to know more about. The German sword fighting was really interesting too. I'll check out their website.
That sword clip is excellent. What do they call this kind of sword fighting? Celtic sword fighting? ancient sword? medievil? or all of the previous lol...

European Historical Combat Guild
The Guild was formed to bring students of historical combat together to train under a common set of principles. Members are trained to achieve a high level of proficiency with a range of weapons by paying close attention to the principles of combat.
The Guild was founded by John Waller. John’s distinguished career as a Combat Master and Fight Director, for such films as Monty Python and the Holy Grail, Hawk the Slayer and in television for drama series such as Robin Hood and Pride and Prejudice, stood him in good stead as the Creative Director of the Royal Armouries. John retired from the museum in 2006, but continues to be consulted.
Since it’s official launch in 2001 the Guild has established many Chapters throughout Britain and Europe.
Times
The Guild meets at the museum.
Monday 7pm to 9pm
Thursday 7pm to 9pm
New members are welcome and no previous experience is required.
Training weapons are provided in wood but once a degree of proficiency has been achieved members can graduate to using steel weapons.

Its great to see traditional western martial arts being kept alive and being practiced with such skill. I have to admit that I know very little about traditional fighting styles of my own continent never mind my own country. Maybe people who are a little too into LARPing (live action role playing for those unfamiliar with the term) should maybe get into this and learn how to fight traditionally and correctly instead of hitting "orcs" with foam axes.
