    Yeah, I'd probably draw the line at Xena the warrior princess (Lucy Lawless), and Chyna the (recently deceased) wrestler.

    On the other hand I dated a fiery redhead once and feared for my life the entire time...

    The best swordfight I ever saw was the one in which Stewart Granger featured in the move "Scaramouche".
    Anyone else seen it?...Pickles.

    I haven't seen that but I'm a big fan of the book.
    Rafael Sabatini is one of my favourite authors.

    Captain Blood is probably my favourite historical fiction of all time.
    At a young age, Rafael was exposed to many languages, living with his grandfather in England, attending school in Portugal, and, as a teenager, in Switzerland. By the time he was 17, when he returned to England to live permanently, he had mastered five languages. He quickly added a sixth language – English – to his linguistic collection. He consciously chose to write in his adopted language, because, he said, “all the best stories are written in English"

    So, I've been running a Historical European Martial Arts club for a year, now.

    I made a video giving an overview of the year:
