Gentlemen, I am flattered that you would request input from me on this Prince of threads, for I have no great claims to fame, no notable rewards for efforts done, and have continually avoided risk, danger and attention. I sit here humble, having been surrounded by great men, and was honoured to be in the company of these Knights while we kept the Realm safe.
Input? Who said anything about input?
Most of us, I suspect, have tried to avoid "risk, danger and attention" with varying degrees of success. But that's not the point. Somewhere in the varied discussions/tales here will be an opportunity for you to contribute something of relevance. And the two bob in the swindle entitles you to speak!!
