More Dip (lomancy)

The court of the Hurtshog welcomes the Count Wilhelm v. Corona from Saxe Beerstein.
In celebration, the Anglerians throw a special grill and fish fry while the Patriarch of the Later - in - the - Day Saints toasts with a special Te Deum!

Hi Arthur,

The words,"Mighty" and "Raubenstadt" used in the same sentence is pretty laughable in itself! Everybody but the Swiss (And the Markgraaf doesn't TRUST them!) have come through our neck of the woods since Tilly and the Thirty Years War, so our "foreign relations" are pretty paranoid.

It reminds me of a comedy skit that was on "Rowan and Martin's Laugh-In, lo these many years ago. Two guys getting ready for a sword duel. The first guy has a huge broadsword/Zweihander, and the second guy has a folding pen knife. The first guy builds up so much momentum with his swings, that he gets completely turned around. At that point, the guy with the pen knife lunges forward and gets the first guy right in the kidney!

Say....How are you set for cabbages and/or saurkraut? The knave, louts, and tillers of soil are looking at a bumper crop, and a new market is always appreciated.

Yours,

Martin

Aha!
So the Raubenstadt post was here!
I've answered on EvE that Frankszonia really would be interested in such trade ... it would enhance our product line (which also includes the following: potables such as wine and beer, fine ceramics, and field guns).
