Stitching the Standard

Is anyone spending time with King Arthur and his Knights in the Age of Chivalry in this month's tour of England?

"Chivalry! – why, maiden, she is the nurse of pure and high affection – the stay of the oppressed, the redresser of grievances, the curb of the power of the tyrant – Nobility were but an empty name without her, and liberty finds the best protection in her lance and her sword."

--Sir Walter Scott in Ivanhoe
