In the thread about Kendall & Sorcha visiting the UK, Bill\Sables describes Barrow upon Humber as part of Yorkshire. Is this just because his geography is hazy about the southern boundaries of his county, or is yorkish expansionism about to rear it's ugly head ? I think you might have to consider raising a defence militia of sturdy Lincolnshire yeomanry to repel any planned invasion from the north. Perhaps Mr Sables' recent overseas trip was in order to find allies from other countries.
