Which year was the year we came up ?

And clorogfmed and bound hand and foot after last time I still recall the bruising the clan gave to my gentlemans parts

A czech friend has laready asked me about it so perhaps the tentacles are heading that way I told him based on my epereinces not to bother

Hi have pmd you
Can you send me details on here and I will look into it.

Hi Keiran

dont come here very often

Yes I know it it was sent in January 2013

Assumed you had it

Things like the depiction of mail have to be taken in the much wider context of 12th century art conventions. For example, the depiction of hose is clearly unrealistic in terms of being impossibly close-fitting: Clearly, the depiction of leg coverings is not to be taken literally and this can be ex...

Hi I am sorry you have been having problems reaching us. Could you let me know who you are and what the outstanding order is as I don't recognise the forum login. Once I have the information I'll sort this out. But as far as I am aware everybody who has contacted us by any means recently has been de...

Have a wander at Battle ina couple of weeks theres bound to be a couple there

Stephen I would suggest that any of the makers who make to order would find it an interesting project.

It would mean going through them and wahts BIG ?

Very fast service the last time I used them.

From Debs and a number of her co students on her milinary course dont touch these folks with a bargepole.

Baxter Hart and Abraham or Parkins are the better bet

The public season begins Following a successful residential training weekend and a fun film shoot that is. We are at COAM this weekend. Then being the workshy fops we are are at ease until Kelmarsh followed by Dover Chillingham an event in Shropshire and of course HASTINGS. A quiet year by choice fo...

for the mail shirts inside capapie could do it extremely well but you would be £600 as a minimum for two shirts half thigh length. the fabric parts the padded armour company could probably do something. Thanks showed this to Debs and she says it looks like a challenge not insurmountable though. She...

Leeds market bm fabrics have a good range of linens from £4.00 a metre well worth a look and very friendly

Brill, thanks Jackie - you're only down the road so I shall be putting in the overtime at work and coming to spend up a storm soon. Made some trousers today, the local material shop had an epic sale so I got a few linen remnants quite cheap and managed to put them together without a pattern and mad...

Taffeta silk is the correct for a scarf at least 4 m as you want it to be big

Some traders stock them but mainly in cotton for some reason ???

Then do the old fashioned thing and go to a library although whats to stop you using the net at home ? I assume because even though you are a volunteer working in the heritage industry you do understand how to research things more than googling them. It may seem harsh but whilst we are happy to assi...

My theory for that its worth arrows bulk transported in baskets inside pipes look at the shape of the basket put two back to back then look at the shape of a pipe then issued to individuals companies etc by the basket then further issued by the man who would pop them in a bag please feel free to hav...

A pipe = a form of barrel narrower at the ends than the middle

My understanding is that the baskets were for transport, to stop the arrows being crushed in waggons or on board ship. ISTR that we took 1,000,000 or thereabouts arrows to Agincourt. So baskets to protect the fletchings seem sensible. Your young boys would probably have found baskets easier to carr...

A couple of more recent pieces from Ms Lough one a commission and the other a college project

looks like the buttons are right on the edge of the right hand side, pretty typical for the period, with a plastron behind to ensure no gap. Its not really a primary defensive garment so doesn't need to be too chunky. I'm in that neck of the woods late July so might try and pop in. pics if possible ?
