Oh no!!! Research first, emblazon second. Color on Color Bad! Gosh. I already paid $400 for the tabard to be made and embroidered and it's here, looking sharp. Grammar and I just started learning the language! I think I can get away with saying Gules a Bear Rampant Proper within a double tressure Or. Wonder how many folks will point this out.

Who would dare tell a thrice knighted Bear what it can and can not wear. I've yet to see historical records on what is the proper heraldry for a bear. Surely rules of Heraldry are different for bears.
It sounds like it will be absolutely striking on you.
Wear it proudly Sir Bryon.

Surely rules of Heraldry are different for bears. I think I'll go with that, yep we do heraldry different. Seeing your name made me chuckle because earlier this month I had a gig up in Colorado and this HUGE blue Jay, the size of a Hawk, came swooping in, ah, yes a magpie jay, so I reflected back to a very fun time in Colorado. I got to play on the main street of the town and at one point a grocery store invited me inside, that went well until I found Ice Cream and began digging at it's door, that prompted me getting swiftly ushered back outside. That was okay because the park was nearby and I got to climb on another one of those domed shaped climbing bars ( ... )

I first saw Magpies while staying in the Army hospital in Colorado. Seeing these avian clowns was always a highlight of my trips there.
I thought of you this morning while eating wild blackberry pancakes.
I must get back to my spinning. I'm turning Brother William's cat fur into a crochet pouch.

They are startling birds if you're used to seeing blue jays and they do seem to play around a lot. "I thought of you this morning while eating wild blackberry pancakes." :: drools :: I've consumed all my blackberries but am sure keeping an eye on the plums ripening! "I'm turning Brother William's cat fur into a crochet pouch. " Assuming the cat doesn't mind =P

I first saw Magpies while staying in the Army hospital in Colorado. hmm hopefully I"m not doubling my response and replying twice, but then, that's okay too. I was also Army RA back between 1966 and 1969. The Magpies are startily birds to see if you're used to seeing blue jays, Like a SuperJay! Awesome and they do sure play around a lot.
I thought of you this morning while eating wild blackberry pancakes Yeah, I confess a weakness to blackberries and have consumed all of them I was able to find. I'm watching the sand plums now, oh too sweet.
I'm turning Brother William's cat fur into a crochet pouch. I am assuming that the cat doesn't mind? Now, if I did that wrong then I have sent off two replies if so then consider this one just an exclamation to the former = )
