I wonder if any of RTR's schools were 'Approved', and if so, by whom?

Sharron, I could take offence at your implication that I should know about approved schools, but, I won't :-D :-D :-D I know what you mean :-D

Nameslessone, perhaps RTR was concerned - I mean it's much easier to hide a dagger than a sword in your handbag, isn't it?

Many schools are approved............by someone ;-)


Rollo was concerned Maggie would be waving her sword around in queues - that’s where ye olde sword stick comes in handy

Sharron Report 5 Aug 2020 16:01

There are approved schools and approved schools though aren't there?

You should know!

Maybe I meant remedial.

My brother learnt plumbing at approved school, not fencing.
They do fencing at Sparsholt (Agricultural College)

Wiki got it wrong again?

They do teach agriculture at approved schools don't they? That would involve fencing!

I wonder if Rollo was using a child’s sword. An adult one can be up to about 114 cms.
