Three Leeks on our shirts...

Yaki dar boyos, Dai the Drag-on here.  Prince of Pontins-Prestatyn, Welsh isn't it, in a sequined frock gambeson!  

Had some visitors round our way we have.  Scots and the Frenchies it was.  Come for a lovely punch up see.

24 points of Lion Rampant.  The list was one unit of Mounted Sergeants (that's me see) three foot yeomen with javelins and two archers.

The battlefield was near my Uncle Emrys place at Llanfairpwllgwyngyll.  Staunch member of the LBGT resistance to the English Emrys, isn't it boyo?


Uncle Emrys place at Llanfairpwllgwyngyll


The army of the Drag-on gets on table.


Look you, its the Scotchmen isnt it!  


Oh and the Frenchies too.  Whatever Emrys has in those cow sheds they wants it boyo...


The Drag-on in trouble.  Those French are dressed in solid iron boyo.  Prince Dai dies...


The Scotch creeping around the hedgerows

The thing to do in Wales is to crawl through the woods apparently

And on those Frenchies come


Now the Welsh have heard of the Golden Spurs at Courtrai, and have adopted their tactics against these French...  Box yourself into a defensive position...


And they're off, its Guy in white leading from Guy in brown, and they take the jump...

But half of the French wander off to have a go at the Scotchmen...


And its the Scots who have a go at the Welsh position.  Not that successful...

So its bows, followed by javelins.  The Welsh have a good tactical position

French Guy leaps into the position, claiming that he is now the Wolf in the sheep fold.  These are Welshmen boyo!  Sheep is one thing they know all about!  The Frenchman is killed...

The Scotchmen have a mad moment and charge over the bridge.  Its it just me or ...


Its a scrap as the Scots throw back their hated enemy, the French crossbowmen


Meanwhile the Gui the Wolf is unceremoniously thrown out of the Welsh sheep fold, before being stabbed up the buttocks by a javelin.

The Scotch commander is over bold and rolls snake eyes...  


But the Scots charge has ripped the heart out of the French advance


Game over.  The Welsh cling on, as do the Scots but there is no denying the Victory of the French.

The memorial to Dai the Drag-on Prince of Pontins-Prestatyn, cross dresser and gay pride of the valleys, can be found near Emrys house, Llanfairpwllgwyngyll.
