Thanks for the heads up. Went this morning and had an interesting time. Saw Ruth Goodman. Bought a blanket clip (roman style) and a trivet for my Dutch Oven. Excellent value entrance at £3.50. I shall look out for these events in the future.

Damn... it's a pity that TORM isn't a week later then we could have done both it and the outdoor show

ATM (no promises!) I'm trying to work out if a Meet to coincide with The International is bookable. It's a bit further from the Close than TORM is but ... ;) .

Time to bump again ;) .

The International Living History Fair - 29th/31st October 2010.


An early heads up - due to the growth of The International, the event will be moving to larger premises from early 2011.



The Original Reenactors Market - 12th 13th and 14th November 2010.


The location for the TORM event (as far as I am aware) remains unchanged.


Please note: There will be a Meet held at Rough Close* to coincide with this TORM event.


* '12 months of Meets' thread



All of the usual 'no connections' disclaimers apply :cool:

I'm coming down for the Saturday and Sunday.

I don't think we're going to get along to the Meet up though, however, if anyone *is* at the show, I expect by about 2.30 I'll be in dire need of a coffee on the Saturday. Presumably there's somewhere on site and it'll be after the lunchtime rush :cool:

cheers,
Toddy

p.s. amongst the Traders are Bernie the Bolt ( excellent wool by the metre) David Hodges (fold down forge set ups) and the JerkyMeister (Martyn's jerky is just excellent )

I'll be there in the afternoon.

There is - head to the far end of the hall. Canteen is (up stairs) in the left corner and Bernie is (usually) in the right - toilets are smack between them ;) .


... David Hodges (fold down forge set ups) ...

IIRC he'll be under the banner of the 'The Iron Dwarf'.

That was a good event. It seemed as if there was even more of an effort than usual on the part of the stall holders - which could either be down to moving location next year, the economic climate - or purely coincidental :dunno: .


I may be trialling new kit at the TORM Meet :lmao: - if nothing else, I need to make a leather mini mug or two for a possible pass around :D .
