	I wonder if any of RTR's schools were 'Approved', and if so, by whom? *Any comments or jokes I make may be subject to correctional 'mansplaining'.

	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? *Any comments or jokes I make may be subject to correctional 'mansplaining'.

Member Since: May 2006 Posts: 7 012 Send Message	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

	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) *Any comments or jokes I make may be subject to correctional 'mansplaining'.

	Wiki got it wrong again? They do teach agriculture at approved schools don't they? That would involve fencing!

Member Since: May 2006 Posts: 7 012 Send Message	I wonder if Rollo was using a child’s sword. An adult one can be up to about 114 cms.
