I don't believe you appreciate my appetite for mincemeat.
-
It's in the fine print. When you talk about food in a story... Just be glad we didn't extoll the joys of munching on wild game and spitting up fur balls.
-
If I only bought the mincemeat, it'd never make it to the pie. I'd eat it dried or in the jar.

I looked back at this and see he is clueless about the mountains, which means they must be some distance away to not see them and then they are transporting the troops far beyond them. -

He can't see a mountain range?? -
Perhaps your's aren't so bad.

One thing I've been missing during the holidays is mincemeat pie. You simply can't find frozen ones anymore. I can get the small ones they market in the UK, but it just isn't the same. It's even hard to find mincemeat in stores to make your own. I guess it's the price. It's not cheap.

It's why they sell pie crusts.

Other than religious concerns or folks with pet pigs, who would have a problem with ham?

New Year's Eve overindulgence provided the action we've been missing. One thing I wonder about is what the boys do with the rings when they transition. Some of the past situations would make wearing rings problematic.

He knows about the mountains. He just didn't know they had always been the border. -
You're not a wimp. This was an admittedly tough read, though it does payoff in the end.

We modern folks think a war lasting a hundred years is unimaginable. For us, our level of technology has made war something which can devastate both sides far too efficiently. It wasn't always so. Consider the ten longest wars. The longest lasted 781 years and surprisingly two ran well into the 20th Century. Some of these places are still hotspots today. https://largest.org/culture/wars/ -
Stop and consider a moment. If there were so little to this story as you now believe, would GA make it a Featured Story? The answer is of course not.

Callum will be making a big mistake by trying to escape. He'll lose what little good will he's earned and his chances of getting away are close to nil. He doesn't know the terrain or how far behind the lines he might be. This pactrid is an experienced scout and would easily track and outpace him. -
It's a common mistake for his foes.

Winkler was only eleven when he and George met in 1791, so he'd be 21 now.

Ideally it's a part for a coloratura. I'm not sure we've been told Carmella's range. GIII would certainly have heard it and understood it.
-
Yes, I didn't miss it. It implies the entire reason behind this war is a lie. "Truth is the first casualty in war."
-
But history differs. Things never remain static and unchanging on either side. There are also many variables which could stem the 'endless' supply of troops. Nothing is really endless.

Homosexual didn't arrive until 1869, but the educated class could always use classical references or speak in code. Like the oysters or snails scene from Spartacus. No, they weren't talking about food.
-
After so many years of fighting this war you'd think they would innovate some new weapons and tactics to deal with this armor and method of attack. Also, why can't this method of transport be used as a weapon?
-
Black Tot Day 31 July. The reason they stopped it was ridiculous.
-
It's struck me all the services provided are coming directly from the baronial level. Other than look down their noses at all under them, what useful function do counts and viscounts preform?
-
CavCalCar. So many C's to keep track of.
