Dear Guy Who I Fenced Today,

Please note that in foil, the arm is not target area. Hence, none of the soon to be brusies mottleing my arm counted as a point. If you like hitting there so much, please switch to sabre - or eppe, as my thighs are not target either.

Love,
MSA


As you can tell, I went to fencing pratice today. Got beat up lots, as I haven't practiced in over two weeks with one thing or another. Though some of it was completely the other guys fault, as there was a really big dent in my foil's bellguard that wasn't there when I got it at the beinging of pratice. Though the fact that my knuckles are all smashed is my fault.

I also learned how to direct a bout and what a marching attack is and how to fend it off, so it wasn't just entirely "let's kill our opponet!" day.

Now, for supper and to return some possibley late cds. I dont remember when I checked them out, not good.

Some time you should just yell out "For king and country!" and see if that'll distract him enough that you can get in a few hits ^_^

I don't think he would of heard me, as everything is muffled by the maskes.

Though, I'm gonna keep that in mind - crazy moves tend to distract from the bout.
