Welcome back, Joust Fans. We hope you had a good lunch in the intermission. We in the commentary box did. The pickled voles' ears were rather tasty, and Mrs Plumpy had baked us a splendid blackbird pie. So, without further ado, we bring you the final tilt between Sir Tenley and Sir Robin. Sir Robin leads 2-1 at the moment. Both knights are looking a little ragged around the edges now, but they are clinging to their saddles just the same.

ReplyDeleteCongratulations to Sir Robin, well done!
ReplyDeleteSir Tenley! The Emperor of Mirish sends his regards. He plans a splendid dinner in honor of your performance. Our General Spahblod Shahin the Rash will be in attendance, you two should hit it off quite well. And bring that Guido fellow as well...
Oh dear, I think Sir Tenley is Doomed. :-)
