I also want to apologise for a thread that got out of hand, didnt mean it to be especially among seasoned re-enactors, long weekend, etc, i know some of those guys looked farby theyre new and if we as re-enactors cant point them in the right direction who can if they choose to go tits up after that then theirselves to blame, those guys have been steered with advice on stuff they dont do displays like myself and a few others as they dont have original set ups artifacts etc especially like my Luftwaffe flight gear and kombi, anyway whoever we are whatever we portray, best way is always forwards and together for the hobby,
my god if you had seen some of thefarbaroonies at crich last weekend!! but i sure as hell didnt march over there and tell 'em.
each to their own, every hobbie has its newbies, i'm sure i was one once! in fact i can remember taking part in a battle years ago in full ATS uniform, lmao, i cringe!!
