Mine USE to...

Maddogge hangs his at every event and uses it... via his tent poles in his lean to...

Other than outfitting a few... fraid not... email me again with the discussion off the pub... thank you.

Where you been boy? We're already doing that... although you or Maddogge may yet be a pirate for fighting (steel) purposes

Brilliant!!

You find out the most interesting things about people, here on the Pub! Yeah that and the pink robe and bunny slippers was it Patrick??

Okay my question here is, and please don't take this the wrong way as I can truly appreciate all yer hard work and talent that goes into making some of this stuff... but why are we aging the papers and burning the edges? If letters of marque were so important and kept locked away and we are portraying folks from the period and not from a later period finding OLD documents... shouldn't we be producing items that look fairly new and not totally beat up? What would fresh, new, maybe a year old letters look like?

Still here... or rather, still awake, just sewing...

Hey Patrick, be glad they didn't CUT the bag open to see what was inside... We arrived in England for a Rev. War event. (back in the 80s) One of our dragoon's luggage had been broken into and everything was laying out on the baggage collection area for ANYONE TO walk away with... when we inquired as to why, one agent was happy to tell us, knowing who we were, some of the chaps just wanted to see the gear...

Carry it or lose it.... I used to travel for competition and carried on everything I needed for horse shows... I can't tell you how many folks missed the competitions because they arrived and their gear went to Hawaii and none was returned until after the event. I have flown to many a Wild West event in pc clothing with a few spare needs in a carry on and have always managed... now GAoP... the damn hat alone is going to be a problem... I also agree with Jenny... IF YOU CAN, ship your stuff ahead of time. Also, Dad travels to hunt a lot... I know the NRA used to be willing to tell you what carriers are weapon friendly and those who are not and will happily trash or lose your stuff because THEY think YOU shouldn't own such things. For those of you concerned, you may wish to give them a call and see who they recommend for flying/shipping your favorite blunderbuss or the sword you really can't afford to replace at the moment.....
