Sheffield Fayre
We actually went out on a Bank Holiday Monday, this has to be a first for us, we generally stay at home to avoid the crowds! So we took ourselves off the Sheffield Fayre at Norfolk Heritage Park in Sheffield. There was a re-enactment of the American Civil War, but we arrived to late to see it, however I did manage to get some pretty good photos, so enjoy.
OK this is the first time Himself has held a gun, any idea who he would like to use it on? Answers on a post card please!

I have been to several of the camps were displays from all the wars from the Revolutionary War to Viet Nam are laid out for everyone to see. They are so interesting, and they bring back memories of stories I heard as a child from the veterans of WWI, WWII, Korea and from my buddies about VN. Hope you enjoyed it, too. It’s nice to get out and about to visit different places.
coffeypot - we both find them so interesting, next year we hope to get there to watch more of it.
A fair in Sheffield and the American Civil War? ok. That's cool. er.... sort of.... I think
Foto 5 looks more like wwi!
Glad you enjoyed your bank holiday and the weather was good.
I'm guessing him indoors will shoot anyone who bothers Mr Milo.
four dinners - it got us out for a change and that is something considering himself usually stays put in front of the box!
kahless - lol he was in full parachute gear, and mr milo should be so lucky lol
It wouldn't have occurred to me that there would be much interest in the American Civil War. But, it did look interesting.
Do you think Himself would use the gun on the seagull who always swoopes down on my cat! Honestly, this bird is extremely brave and shits down my washing a lot so a quick ending would be great!!
Nice pics, Katy!
Looks like a fun day out - I kept embee at home, well apart from his trip to the garden centre, hoping to get a few jobs done around the house- I'll let you guess how much got done!!!!!
Are the women allowed to be soldiers too? Or do they have to make stew and apply bandages? Just wondering.
I say anything that gets you out of the house and doing things togther rocks.
Did you have fun?
can you imagine cooking over that old camp stove.. wow.
probably alot of beans and root vegetables
ps.
he looks just like James Bond (circa 1864)
Hmmm... the American Civil War? In Shefield? Any Canadian battles enacted? I'm sure we have had one or two, I just can't think of them. :0) Glad you had a fun day out.
