The tourney winner was Lord Johann von Rothenburg, who bore the really spiff
arms Quarterly sable and Or, three crosses formy counterchanged.
Unfortunately his lady did not attend, but requested that he 'bring home
something nice.'  (Wouldn't you like to have been a fly on the wall when he
got home? ;-) )

New Excellencies are finally registering names and arms.  Barring bounces,
they will be known henceforth as Reynard de la Rochefoucauld and Diana Rhys
of Carmarthen.
