Wulfric (Nick)

**Wayland** · 24-04-2010, 14:13

It'll be good to see you again.

**Graham_S** · 24-04-2010, 15:45

I'm going to say provisionally yes to this, I'll be in the UK,
If I can get a weekend pass, I'm there.

**Wayland** · 24-04-2010, 20:58

It would be great to see you there, and your good lady too perhaps?

**Black Sheep** · 26-04-2010, 09:14

I'll provisionally say yes, but I might not be able to stay for full weekend.

As this will be my first Dark Ages meet what will I need to bring/wear kit wise?

Cheers Richard

As much as I'd love to join in on this the wifes birthday is slap bang in the middle of that weekend.

I don't think it would be appreciated if I were to go off and leave her to celebrate it alone

**Matt.S** · 26-04-2010, 14:57

Very interested. Perhaps a silly question, but how accessible is it via public transport?

As to a basic CV: archaeology graduand with experience of blacksmithing, wattle + daub and similar skills. Don't mind sharing living space with others, can sleep on a clothesline. No 'reenactment' experience as such, but I reckon I can knock together a largely accurate costume in time.

ETA: might be able to do some basic smithing demonstrations/workshops depending on what kit is available on site/I can bring with.

**Wayland** · 26-04-2010, 17:30

Sounds good, check out the earlier threads mentioned in post 1 for ideas on kit.

It's within walking distance of the park and ride system and I dare say we could arrange a pick up if needed.

**Peterlee_Paddler** · 29-04-2010, 01:08

Assuming I'm not rota'd into work that weekend, then I'll be there.

**PJMCBear** · 01-05-2010, 13:47

Yyyyeeeessss! Nothing booked for that weekend. I'm in. Even the wife entered it onto the calendar.

Time to dig out the sewing machine again. Is it just me or do costumes shrink after you've worn them once.

**nickg** · 07-05-2010, 16:23

I plan yet another stew on saturday night - beef this time - can anybody do some flatbreads and maybe some vegs toi accompany - maybe bake some bread onsite?

it'll be onion free with lots of pulses & fresh herbs etc

Cheers
Nick

Toddy i think we need a chat

**Wayland** · 10-05-2010, 08:11

**Toddy** · 10-05-2010, 08:42

Excellent

On a side note, Dharma and I do the same kind of things, is there anything in particular you'd like us to bring/ demonstrate ?

**andywinkk** · 30-05-2010, 12:10

i would like to come please if thats ok, i would like to bring a friend also if thats ok, is there any chance that there maybe a few summer costumes for me to borrow, don't fancy wearing wool in this weather it could get a bit smelly, it will be good to see you all as iv'e not been able to do owt for a while with my redundancy ect ect,

**Wayland** · 31-05-2010, 21:26

Should be able to fit you in Andy.

As for costume I may struggle there as we are bringing some friends too and have lent out a lot of our spare stuff.

I'll bring what I have but I can't promise anything.

**nickg** · 01-06-2010, 07:55

Andy if the weather is anything like last weekend then wool will be fine - really!!!

cheers
Nick
