Yup, that's her. She's a very sweet lady, albeit a walking Thai stick. I've had one of her basic shirts (the Yankl) for a number of years and it's very comfortable to wear, even in the heat and humidity at Scarbie. Lady Dra will occasionally do first-rate custom embroidery on a shirt (examples: shamrocks, the St. Andrews flag, or a dragon) which adds another $50-$75 to a shirt she already sells for $89. I've been tempted but haven't bitten yet.

I'm unfamiliar with the vendor you described. I noticed there's a store called Done with Mirrors on the Scarbie vendor list.

Well damn! She has a whole little fanbase doesn't she?

she takes art prints of all sizes, and sandwiches it between a mirror and glass and surrounds it with a copper frame w/ decorative touches. i have several in my home and gave many as gifts many years ago.

hopefully i'll get to go this year.

<<< I want to go back to Scarborough Fair! >>>
Last time I went (like 5 years ago) it was a blast, so much to see and a smile on everyone's face! Rejoice for events that bigger the boob, the louder the woot!!

The purple one we found was $300. Well worth the investment.
Steak on a stake was very good, although I double fisted the turkey legs as well. Mead was fantastic. Thanks you know who for being such a gracious host.

And as a side note, I hope the two big injuries of the day are ok. Had a young lady fall at the Joust arena and they had a head on collision that delayed the opening (right in front of the gates, could not get in to park).

Be safe driving out there.

Hello, M'Lords & M'Ladies! I went last weekend and had a wonderful time. Now I want to build an outfit or two! So, if you have recommendations for online sources for period garb, please PM me!

Also, for the ladies that also enjoy it, I would love a session with a wench!

To shop, why not start with the great vendors at Scarbie? You can easily browse those with web sites here:

As for your request regarding female companionship, on ECCIE there are lots of ... hold on ... never mind ... I thought you said WITCHES, not WENCHES.

groupon has good bargains on tickets, but you have to be on their mailing list, Iris and Rose for the best adult show there

uh huh.... great..... are the escorts easy to spot there?
if they are, is the only private place for sex at the port-a-potties?
or do I just lift up their skirt and park it while they are bobbing for apples?
Will there be Fifty year old wenches running around saying they are only "27"?

Hey, this fantasy is getting pretty good...maybe if I get descriptive enough, this thread will have some relevance to the subject of this forum..
