Noble Friends of the Bow,

While this isn't exactly SCA period, I am always fascinated by news about
the Royal Company of Archers. HM Queen Elizabeth II just visited Edinburgh
to open the Scottish Parliament. Whenever the sovereign is in Edinburgh,
the Royal Archers provide ceremonial body guards. This series of photos has
two views of the archers in uniform:

More about Edinburgh's Royal Company of Archers is found at
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Royal_Company_of_Archers .

Queens, archers, kilts and bagpipes! It doesn't get much better than this.

Yours Aye,


Lord Mungo Napier, Archer of Mallard Lodge  🦆
