Website of Historia Normannis; the re-enactment group I met local members of today:
A 12th-century living history group, bringing history to life in a historically accurate, engaging and exciting way.

There were 5 men taking part in the combat training & 2 women doing sewing etc.
It didn't take the bearded guy with the ponytail long to suck down his cigarette after the battle; if he'd had a spare I'd have shown him how fast I could smoke one
If I joined the re-enactment group I'd ask him if he wanted a smoke of my clays...
Didn't go to the pub today.
