How would you suggest I do that here, even assuming I cared the slightest whether anyone believes it or not?

You pop out your puppies and take a digital photo of yourself standing infront of your pc which has your profile page open. Post a link to that photo. Change your avatar to that photo should do it.
Put a bag over your head to remain anonymous and if/or you are a munter.

Anyways, we were sitting around the campfire one night, near Otterspool,

Otterspool near Marple?

I used to frequent the Hare & Hounds in the mid eighties, great place.

Great story EO and I liked it.

Several of my friends do re-enactment and listening to their stories is a source of much amusement. (They do full-contact, as opposed to just poncing around looking good)

They are completely obsessed with learning their craft though, and they do practice for hours every week on weapon drills, mock fighting, etc.

So compared to a Hell's Angel who basically only knows how to hold and stab with a knife, and a re-enactment nutter who knows all 17 styles of Rigaletti (or whatever it is called) with a rapier, I know where my money will go.

Well, tell your friends about this one.
We were up against the luncefords, placed well away from the crowd, so the punters wouldn't get upset by the blood and snot. The Luncefords always wore pure white lambskin jerkins which really made them stand out, and I admit they looked good. They outnumbered us two to one so we changed from pikes to muskets, and I was kneeling in the front rank. We loaded and got the order to give fire, so we touched the fuse into the touch holes and BANG, very spectacular, clouds of blue smoke rolled towards the Luncefords.
The guy standing directly behind me had a hang-fire, thats where the powder burns slow through the touch hole. The musket is going to go off, but noone knows when. So he lowers the barrel to check the pan and , bang, I got it right in the back of the neck.
I woke up five minutes later with no skin on my neck, and my ears rang like I been put in a biscuit tin with two skeletons having a w@nk.
Funny enough we did better in the pike push with less men, because no one wants a red hot musket barrel pressed against their face. After they cooled down we got creamed though. Oh to be young again

Shame, I know some quite fit Bavarian farmers wives. There's a series of German smut (as in Carry on style but a bit ruder) which center around farmers from that area, such as Pudelnacht in Oberbayern, classic.
