Song of the Week – The Chandler’s Wife
Sorry, I had this post written last week and I was sure I had published it…Oh well!
Okay, another bawdy song up this week. I can’t find much information about The Chandler’s Wife except that is is considered Traditional and it is apparently common enough that numerous people have recorded versions of it.

Aside from the news about Richard (see post below) things went pretty well at Coronation. I did a little wandering during the afternoon and then sang from table to table at the feast. Unfortunately, I had sung myself hoarse by the time I reached head table so I don’t feel I gave the best impression there. After feast, though I like to wander around the camps at night, I just headed home to recover. I was also noticed by Master Evan, who inquired what kingdom I was from. He seemed a little taken aback when I told him, “Trimaris, for the last 15 years.” Perhaps the “Stealth Laurel” guise was a bit too successful? Anyway he chided me for not attending Laurel circles so I told him I would begin attending in the future. I know, I know. With great power yada yada yada.
Next weekend I’ll be at Fools War. It’s actually the first event I attended in this neck of the woods because I went with Keegan before I started going to Trimarian events. This year is Fools War 21 and I have the site token from Fools War IV so it has been quite a while.
Also this weekend will be the first anniversary of the start of this blog, April 3rd in fact. As of today I have had 1499 “hits” on the site over the past year. Not really a lot, but perhaps more than I expected. This Song of the Week post is number 47 which shows I have been a bit remiss in the “weekly” department though I suppose technically I can count next weeks song too for 48. All in all it’s been kind of fun. I have been able to connect with several old friends and it has been good practice for me to get that post up every week. I hope that it has provided some amusement along the way.
