"trying to avoid making eye contact with me". I resemble that remark, I suspect.

Pyrates Royale at the Faire is great--and a smash hit. Even attracting younger people into pub songs and chanties , by the back door--as it were.

Only thing that can compete, as far as I'm concerned, is Shakespeare's Skum.

But will the Faire bring back the falconers? I remember seeing that years ago. Also very memorable.
