The shield always used to be kept at Len Morgan's house, but a couple of years ago he decided that the group should take more responsibility for the multi period kit and it was farmed out to various members. This allowed Len's wife some of her house back but then he retired and went into business as a full time armourer and now the house is even fuller than before, this time with bits and pieces of half made scabbards and helmet bowls. But I digress. I last held the shield about a month ago when I was playing my very occasional part as a fourth century soldier (in a very time consumingly embroidered tunic I'm afraid) at a re-enactors' fair, but for some reason somebody else went home with that particular shield. I suppose I'll see it the next time I need it.<br>
