I surrender, what does AFR stand for

I surrender, what does AFR stand for 

AFR = alr.faires.renaissance, the granddaddy of all online renaissance faire forums. You can still find it on Google Groups. The old USENET forums used to be the primary source of content on the internet, back when everyone got online via a unix account and web pages barely existed.

Yep, Had a chance to speak with a lot of the invaders at farie on Sunday, and in the VIP parking lot Saturday night.

Even had a chance to pick up a RESCU  or 2 for a very good cause.

Thanks for the info.

Hope all goes well for John Broadfoot, and he knows everyone in the TDW group wishes him well and a speedy recovery.

A big and heartfelt THANK YOU to you again!  This is Allie (Lori), John's best friend.  He is doing well, and is back to his old self and all activities as cleared by his doctor.  We don't know what we would have done without all of you, and we can't thank you enough.   (((hugs all around)))  You will likely hear from John in the near future!

I'm glad to hear that John is back to his ole self. I wasn't able to make it to faire last weekend.

[Lord Cartwright]

John sent us a thank you letter (not really needed like we said " part of the rennie family) and my wife and the other TDW's are going to write him back and keep in touch.
