  1. Looking at armor behind glass is fine, but feeling the ground shake during a #jousting tournament in a small village is way better. These local #medieval events pull you right into the past with roasting meats and heavy wool cloaks. I mapped out a few lesser-known #historical gatherings across the continent.

  6. Stepping into #PippingfordPark during the #MedievalFestival feels like the modern world just stopped existing. I spent the day wandering between #falconry displays and the #archery range, surrounded by people who take their #history seriously. The #jousting is intense, but the real charm is the #medieval tavern where stories flow as fast as the ale. A perfect way to spend a bank holiday weekend in #EastSussex.

  11. Members and friends of SZH had a blast at our local #renfaire today! Eating meat pies, watching some #jousting, getting wisdom from an old sage, and questing for magic beans! What's your favorite part of going to the #rennaisance #festival?

  12. Gotta love the times we live in. I just saw a sign advertising a Joust next to a sign advertising a 12 hour lawnmower race.

  13. Jousting. This is one of my favorite pictures. The sheer concentration of the jouster, the combined concentration and purpose of lance, horse and person. Truly amazing #jousting #horse #photography #rider #art #photo #concentration

  14. Folks! The Kickstarter for The Complete Guide to Jousting 5E is ending soon. It's got cool mounts, fun backgrounds, all new magic items, and some truly fantastic artwork. Don't miss out on backing this one!

  20. Dear Friends of #Sport #Robots, 🤖
    As you may know, the Oilympics is once again upon us. Who looks forward to competing against robots? At the moment they are little more than
    #raining aids BUT in the future... World Team v team AI Robot. No cyborgs for near future? ​:ablobcatpopcorn:​

    Here are some events I would like to see in Robot Olympics (Robot v Robot):
    - Reverse
    #Jousting (starting with no weapons but moving up through the range to lances) Robot quadrupeds and flying robots allowed? Swarms? mmm... maybe.
    -
    #Synchronised high-diving (preferably from #space). No re-entry slow down devices allowed? That should separate the #automatons from the #unassimilated #Borg.
    -
    #Decathlon with a greatly varied robot-diversity #itinerary

    Yep. We don't yet have robots suitable? How soon?

  23. "Get on your horse and hit the other guy with the stick. It's not that hard. Just try not to fall off." Waltheof the Squire dispenses some… useful advice(?) before the Mystery Knight's first jousting match against Sir Emmett in the Grand Tourney.

  25. An arranged marriage to a younger boy was unconsummated when #JohnOfGaunt arranged a hasty annulment so that his 2nd daughter #ElizabethOfLancaster - already pregnant? - could marry the hot-tempered warrior #JohnHolland. Between overseas trips & crises they equipped #Dartington with a #jousting arena & magnificent Great Hall. Within months of his beheading she married another skilled jouster, briefly imprisoned by her brother #HenryIV... 🧵 5/

  30. For today's #GirlArmour post we have Nikki Willis, posing here outside Kenilworth Castle. When women were allowed to compete in English Heritage jousting events for the first time in 2016, she was one of the first to sign up at the age of 46.
