The scrapbook has 50 pages, so it will hold a lot of memories to share with them. If you would like to email me something to print, I will add it to the pages.  You can then sign it on Sunday. Or you can bring something with you, and I will have my glue dots or photo glue to put things into the scrapbook.  Even your signature and a few words will add a lot to this book.  If  you can't make the service, you can email me, and I will include your words. -Dame [[Tangeena]]

(Note from the autocrats: we did not refuse to accept live steel. We said we would prefer not to make all prizes live steel, as the general opinion of previous years' winners is that they would prefer "something more useful").

If you know that the person has already taken a sword from past events please do not send them to me again.
