Ken,

Your wit, honor and skill have been a shining example to us all and will be greatly missed.

I hope that after a few months of R&R you and your steed will be ready to return to the fray.

Sincerely,

I'm sorry to see you retiring, but wish you the best. I truly enjoyed our battles and hope we might cross swords again some time in the future. Anyway, many thanks for your invlovement and service to the club.

Sir Muddy,

It has been an extraordinary pleasure to take the field against so gallant a foe, not just for the challenge of our battles, so often decided in the last moments, but for the camaraderie. I wish you the best and join in the chorus of those who hope your retirement is short-lived.

On the bright side, at least you'll finally have the chance to take a bath. [;)]

Sheesh! I mean, how many years of mud can one man cake on to his uniform? And to force the same on your horse must violate any number of laws about humane treatment of animals.

Cheers!

Au revoir Muddy.

These halls will seem empty without the inevitable post:-

'...A mud spattered officer entered the Tavern...' that followed each of a seemingly endless string of victories.

You were a credit to your army, and a bastion of the NWC. You will be sorely missed by friend and foe alike.

I am privileged to have taken the field against you, though like so many other French officers, I rue the outcome to this day [;)]

My very best wishes for all the endeavours that lie before you and be sure to post your memoires here.

So, from one officer to another:-
