Nice there is Montmirail bicentary this week end too

[Mr T]

Yeah bunch of us are going, going to be quite shattering! We'll arrive on the Thursday afternoon and leave late Sunday afternoon. It should be a good event except they have very restrictive and quite frankly crap rules about our cantinieres.

[Vincenzo]

At montmirail woman are not allowed to be on the battlefield, in the parades or drills etc.. its stupid.

My girlfriend did not want to go at all then if all she can do is sit in camp, so we decided to go to another event as invite in the netherlands (Bathmen) and go with the 21eme in another event, were thinking of one in the UK this year.

[Cara]

Oh it's sad, I don't understand why they did this :/ Well, I won't have the time to come with Uni final exams

Hope to see some pics here

The guy writing the rules seems to be hating womans or something, the way he wrote it its just as if their the scum of the earth and a mere distraction;

We couldn't get the tune right. We spent about 1/2 hour practicing a single march, only to fail it later while in battle. I blame the bagpiper.

I'm on the left in dark blue. Not the prettiest picture of me, but I hadn't seen a mirror in over 24 hours and I'm in a borrowed tunic which was a bit big. Still, you all know vaguely what I look like now.
