More dressing up......


As you know, I like a bit of dressing up so don't need much of an excuse. Isabelle at Beaumont asked us to help out with another Medieval Day today so off we went. Had great fun, there were lots of stalls and entertainment, and of course some taking it very seriously, living in a tent, cooking over fires reenactors who pointed out discrepancies in our outfits. Probably wouldn't have approved of our non medieval cups of tea brewed on the gas cooker in the horse trailer either.......



We did the usual parade around the town, the boys found some brightly clad cyclists very interesting, totally ignored the fire for cooking the hog roast, but Gandalf did his customary highly suspicious staring at the water fountains in the centre of town.

The SNO was happy as she got her face painted and got to ride around carrying a weapon and then got to hit someone with said weapon without even getting into trouble!

We were lucky with the weather for the parade, but then the heavens opened and we had to hide under various tents, then got soaked on the way back to the trailer with the boys. Just like being in England, really.......
