"Dear All,
I have just returned from Waterloo where I attended an invitational event courtesy of the Belgium Tourist Office.
The Waterloo 200th Commemorations and Programme has been changed. Updated programme is as follows:
WEDNESDAY JUNE 17, 2015
INAUGURATION of the Hougoumont farm
THURSDAY JUNE 18, 2015
OFFICIAL COMMEMORATION of the Bicentenary of the Battle of Waterloo
BIVOUACS 10am-6pm
SOUND AND LIGHT SHOW 8pm-10pm
FRIDAY JUNE 19, 2015
DEPARTURE WATERLOO DISPATCH Morning (Wellington museum)
BIVOUACS 10am-6pm – paid entry
FIRST RE-ENACTMENT OF A PHASE OF THE BATTLE 8pm-10pm
SATURDAY JUNE 20, 2015 BIVOUACS 10am - 6pm
ANIMATIONS IN THE BIVOUACS Napoleon’s & Wellington’s dinner - Historical demonstrations
SECOND RE-ENACTMENT OF ANOTHER PHASE OF THE BATTLE 8pm-10pm
SUNDAY JUNE 21, 2015
SPECIAL FREE ANIMATIONS with re-enactors in Braine-l’Alleud, Waterloo,…
END OF THE BIVOUACS “BREAKING CAMPS” 1pm"

The event has also been organised by a donkey... who in their right mind is going to want to have public walking around for 8 hours... and THEN have the battle from 8pm-10pm... absolute bullshit. When's our chance to let our hair down... all this because the politicians have got involved and instead of making it a commemorative event, have turned it political, meaning that the reenactments will take place at stupid o'clock at night, and the bivouacs will be open for stupid hours of the day.
Bloody poltiticians

Aww thanks Cenkris for those kind words

I've opened a thread. This is becoming such a big subject it's kinda overlapping the actual re-enactment. Let us go there.

We had 2 units, but they cancelled at the last minute, now we have to rely on a handfull of individuals. Anyone willing to fall in for le French? We even have some spare equipment you could use.

Event is in Hellevoetsluis, Netherlands.

I have an event this weekend on angel island in San Francisco Bay. Going to be pretty small and probably not that good but it's close (big plus) and I will be going with friends.
Of course, I also think lines should be able to move in double rank without having emotional breakdowns.
