Greetings and Joyous Holiday wishes to Our most Wonderful Barony of Nottinghill Coill!


What a year this has been.  His Excellency and I have had the opportunity to visit in all the different parts of the Barony, and travel to other lands with  many different members of Our populace.  We have been made aware of how special our group is, and how blessed we are to live here.  We have shared our pride with Kings and Queens of Atlantia, and we hope that they know what a sparkling jewel this group is in the Royal Crowns.  Thank you for letting us have this opportunity to represent such a warm, rich Barony.

Yule Toy Tourney was a shinning example of what this group offers.  The charity shown by the toy drive was heartfelt, and obvious to anyone who walked into the room with the tables and tables of gifts for those children who might not otherwise have the magical Christmas experience.  We would like to thank Admiral Brandon and his crew for putting together this wonderful event.  We would also offer our gratitude to all those (led by Lady Milicent) who helped us keep our Royal guests well fed and cared for during the event.  We were told by our Guests how impressed they were at how helpful and welcoming the group was to them from the moment they pulled into the site.  However, what gives me the greatest pride is that this attitude was extended to everyone who came, regardless of their royal rank.   Thank you to all who helped in all the ways that added up to one of the best events of the year.

Now, We urge you to rest, revel and enjoy your winter holidays.  The new year promises to have just as much joy and opportunity as the last.

Yours in Service,
Geldamar and Etain, Baron and Baroness of Nottinghill Coill.
