RenFaires 2014 Season
Sir Brian:
--- Quote from: Sir Matthew on 2014-08-07, 01:04:49 ---I saw Sir Brian on Sunday and it was a pleasure, as always. The pity was we ran into each other at the archery demo and never managed to reconnect. I'll be at PaRF again this Sunday, but I have not decided on kit yet. I my go simple, 17th Century Musketeer, since the weather isn't looking great.
--- End quote ---
My apologies for that Sir Matthew. :(
I eventually went back to the car shortly after leaving you and having a couple of beers. My wife wanted to do some shopping and I just couldn’t keep up with her and decided to take the armor off and switched to my soft kit. That day I learned my limit for weight and heat as the coat of plates and humidity was my ultimate downfall. :-[
Sir Ulrich:
I had the same problem with a coat of plates at DoK 2 after wearing it for a few hours I had to take it off. I mostly just go in plain maille now. Just maille alone I can go hours in if the weather isnt too hot. I may just go with a new layered gambeson to replace my puffy black one that has cotton felt inside. It's just too hot in the heat honestly and I needed to drink huge amounts of water.
Sir Edward:
It looks like temperatures will be in the '70s this weekend at Bristol. I think I'll do armor on one of the days.
Lord Dane:
I'll be at NYRF this weekend for any interested. Wife works Sat but Sunday is definite.
Sir Douglas:
So I ran into Norman Cary at PARF today and we talked for a bit. Really great guy. :)
