- In its 7th year … The Chronicles of Sir Thomas Leaf are back … The Great Walkabout Down under and Sailing the Seven Seas will be on hold in its completion for the time being due to funding & time it takes to process the photos, write, and design the pages – these tales should resume back in production come May 2012. Meanwhile, we plan to post the current journey of Sir Thomas Leaf as he returns to Cornwall to the Land of the Fae … hopefully (funding dependent) … live … day to day … If you’d like to see this happen, NOW is the time to pledge support or send in your donations as Sir Thomas will be journeying on the tightest shoestring he has yet travelled on … A $5 donation will buy him a chai where he can get online and weave you a tale with photos … otherwise, you’ll have to wait as fate allows publishing … But we digress … Lets begin … the Chronicles of Sir Thomas Rhymer … and the Quest to the Land of the Fae … This is to replace the failed funding project of the Pirates which couldn’t happen like we wanted it to so is being replaced by this adventure, which will ‘eventually’ be turned into a book …

* Dublin, Ireland – the United Kingdom *
It has been a whirlwind of our adventurer Sir Thomas Rhymer Oisin Leaf McGowan as you followed him on several treks around Europe with the Lady of the Rhine, Exploits in North America at Faerieworlds, Burning Man, and the City of Lost Angels, and then recently Down Under with Sailing the Seven Seas … many of which tales are still being weaved and told around bardic circles … slowly making their way to this e-Chronicles … Sir Thomas Leaf upon his return from Down Under and sailing aboard the HMB Endeavour, made his way to Cornwall last year for excavating the Witchcraft Offering Pits, and then in helping slay the Irish Dragon at Burning Man, met his twin flame … and was lost in a whirlwind of love as he moved across the Great Pond to Dublin, Ireland …. the Love tale of Oisin & Etain. But we digress, the current tale in now set afoot …
Earlier this summer you may have remembered the ploy of Irish Pirates invading England for Mayhem and then returning to Ireland to Seize a Castle? It did happen, but not as it was originally choreographed due to the lack of Booty. For those who don’t know as we were in a vow of secrecy, but Captain Thomas Leaf had embarked upon a ploy to obtain none-other than the Black Pearl for Pirate Relief. He had auditioned for and was invited to air on The Dragon’s Den to face the Dragons to gain their booty to capture the ship. Alas, the act was squashed mainly by funding to get the Pirates to Manchester. An alternative ploy was launched on Kickstarter, to continue the raid … but this time taking on Charleville Castle during Shakefest. The feat was achieved, the Castle seized, A Faerie Glen explored, and a Madhatter’s Tea Party with much mayhem was had. But what about the exploits to Cornwall? Well, crew-less, but in company of fellow explorers, has set launch as we speak for Mayhem in Cornwall … into the Land of the Fae, Pirates, and Vikings. A tale with no plan and weaved as the fates and Oracles direct.

The travel begins this very evening as Sir Thomas Leaf packs up his tent, tarp, sleeping roll, costumes, paints, tarot cards, and gear in anticipation of the arrival tomorrow of Sir Robin Wildwood who would be taking him along for a journey of epic adventure to the Viking port of Jorvik, on to Cornwall to dance with the faeries, and on to Stonhenge for the Summer Solstice celebrations. A good night’s rest was had with intriguing dreams of prophecy to fulfill …
