One day to go..

One day to go but I'm not going to Kentwell - I've over committed and so will be going somewhere else - and about 100 years earlier.
Just hope the weather will stay kind!

Pirates - a different kind of event at Dartmouth castle for the regetta.. A medieval murder mystery where the public were the detectives and the day finished with a court of enquiry where the murderer was revealed. We slept in the castle - it was really good.. i wonder if it would work at kentwell?


Spent most of the weekends of the summer re-enacting - managed to squeeze in even more periods than previously - another 1940s event
some more medieval _ tewkesbury, Bosworth and even an appearance as an 18th cent person at kelmarsh ( a large multi-period event). However just in case you were worried that I make katherine spend all her time dressed up as a historic child - here is a picture of us on holiday in France


Some colourful tudors from 1578 this year


my sister at kentwell

what a long time - oops!


Well katherine, my sister, my mum and I all did kentwell this year through some of the hottest weather of the year. We had a lovely time - most of it spent outside so that Katherine had enough room for playing with horsey and I could at least make some attempt to talk to the children and the public
