I have been part of a Medieval Re-enactment group since I was 3 years old - the current group I am with was started in 1988 by a group of people with the same interest in Medieval Life.

The show we do consists of Archery, Court Dancing, Peasants Dancing, talks on Weapons, Medieval Crafts and Hand to Hand combat.

The members of the group come from all over the country and we get together at whatever site has hired us, whether a village fete or a castle, and put on these displays for all too see.

I will post some piccies of what we do.

Possibly Sam - My cousin Laura does belong to the group, and if it is the same one, then yes you can see her dancing in one of the pictures
