I have to say I'm with Skev on this one, the mass wouldn't be reenacted in a 'comical' or disrespectful way, surely? We as reenactors don't do that, we try to do things as accurately as is possible. Which would bring it to life for the mops, which can only be a good thing, it would add an extra dyna...

I'd like to know who taught Dextro to sing English in a Wezz Cunnry accent i.e. Ring of Fooiirrr :lol: I think you'll find its more of an Irish twang, seeing as he lived there for several years. Am I being dense to ask who composed it? Lidi, its Carl Orff. Not dense at all, if you don't know you do...

Oh I am looking forward to seeing these, as we should be able to spot the crimes a little easier this time - we had a look at Jalea's last ones when we first joined Milwr, and as we were total newbies we had to be guided through the crime minefield! :? Now we are veterans of a whole 9 months or so w...

Isn't it wonderful to have a driver What, doesn't everybody have front seat passenger sewing kit on the way to a muster? It's standard practice in our household!! Nope, I'm the sewer AND the driver and I'd get into trouble if I tried to sew on the way to an event! Cheryl, I think the oilcloth doubl...

Authentic black leather: half submerge some iron filings/steel wool/metal items in some water in a large (no-longer-needed) container. Leave the steel in the water for as long as you can bear to (preferably days!) shake it up every so often to encourage the water to work on oxidizing the steel. Whe...

Excellent, thank you all for your detailed replies. Mally Ley, I'm afraid I do wear my bra, but I've chosen one that doesn't give me too visible lines, and although I know I'm not authentic wearing it, it helps prevent backache as I'm not a small lass - maybe later in my reenactment career I'll feel...

How to move in period clothing
Ladies & Gents, Something has me a little puzzled. I’ve seen on some of the ‘best/worst film’ rants that some folks have noted that certain actors/actresses don’t know how to move in medieval / period clothing. I’ve been to a couple of events now in kit, and although I'm still very much a newbie I f...

Hi Sally, What I really wanted to do was to learn a bit more about natural dyes, so I could have a go at dyeing some linen for our own costumes (just for lining material mostly), instead of relying on the ready-dyed stuff. But I like the idea of natural swatches, so I'll look out for that at the fai...

If you need advise or just company with your sewing we are just on the other side of Glos.(Longney)! We have got a lot of new kit to make over the winter! PM me if you want to pop over! Mrs WhiteWolf here... Thanks for that, we may well take you up on that offer :D I'm a bit daunted about the idea ...
