[tirrigh-heralds] What a cool idea!

[Laura Offley]

Just a note to this - please be aware that our Prince and Princess are 
taking the next 2 weeks to prepare for Their wedding on June 16. If you 
don't receive a response from Them right away, this is why.

I'm trying to clear Their plate a little so They can concentrate on 
things non-SCA. It doesn't mean that you won't hear from them, but Her 
Highness is still working in Prince George and comes to Vancouver on 
weekends to deal with the wedding.
