I was looking forward to this glimpse at various historical eras since hearing about it last year.
Aidan loved the shows, and especially enjoyed grown men acting out fighting and stabbing each other ( then arising from the dead at the end). Sadly the girls found it a little boring, and instead decided to roll around in the cut grass, and build a large bird nest, god only knows what type of bird needs a metre wide ground nest made of grass!
They all enjoyed the slightly odd dragon puppet show, and Elliot loved having a crawl while the others were watching it. Another baby came and sat next to Elliot dressed in period costume. To which I promtly put my foot in it, by telling the kids to be nice to the baby girl, only for the mum ( dressed as a very busty wench) to inform me that he was actually a boy. Blonde long curls, bonnet and dress, how was I supposed to know!
I am sure its great fun, but I really don't get the dressing up and pretending you live in the old days thing.
