Of course the first rule of Knight Club is you don't talk about Knight Club, but Hey, I thought I'd wish all the Knights and Ladies of KMSA a Happy Winter Solstice and New Year, and a special thanks to Sir Hook and Sir Bowie for their hard work in actually bringing to fruition, what was once a boozy, half-baked idea floating around in the bottom of a beer glass in a rowdy McGrath's bar in Harrisburg in 2006. Being an artist much practiced in the knowledge of Celtic and Medieval design it has been most gratifying to be able to lend a hand to this fine Round Table of Fellows and Ladies, in giving it color ( US spelling ) and keeping an eye on any wayward authenticity of medieval facts, when they are being wrassled to the blog by our esteemed founders, who think anything before 1776 just comes under the US heading of "Old" and "very Old". The ensuing Daily Blog, including wonderful parts of American history hitherto unknown by me, has been an education for me too... so to say thanks to our most accomplished of Booze-hounds, I bring to you a reworked drawing of an old Latin Blessing : Pax Intrantibus, Salus Exeuntibus, Benedicto Habibtibus, ( Peace to those Entering....Health to those leaving and Blessing to those within,) in the Celtic Fashion, and wish you all an Exciting MMVIII

Remember, The Message is in the Bottle,
Sir Dayvd of Oxfordshire
