No fencing for me.

So usually on a Wednesday I'd be going fencing, poking people with swords is great exercise and I dun't really do much else in the way of serious physical activity.  However a couple of weeks ago I was in a motorbike accident and damaged my knee.  Luckily the bike was fine so I didn't have to pay for repairs or mess about with insurance or anything.  But still, kind of annoyed about not being able to fence.

On an unrelated note, does anyone know any good UK websites where you can buy steel welding wire?  Apparently it's good for making chainmail out of, and cheap, so that would be handy for making my shirt.

    welding wire is thin(most cheap ones,which are not too cheap btw lol) and wont have good protection(but im assuming its just for looks?) idk ive never seen any mondern chainmail, your better off looking for a roll of steel wire ,twist tie, w/e you call it over there
