The Royal Wedding

[fleetfootmike]

No, I didn't :D

Not for any personal political reason...


...just because I spent the day being a different kind of Royalist at the Peterborough Wargames Club (for those wondering, it's an English Civil War battle).

I was a tart with Bright's Regiment of Foote in the ECWS. I have great historical interest in our monarchy, but little emotional attachment, I went shopping and for a long walk. I hope the young couple are very happy, just not interested in watching it.

Looks more like an Aussie battle to me!

It ain't a proper civil war in my book if there aren't dueling ironclads.

Uh, sorry, that's my US bias showing.

It isn't, by a long way, the first English civil war. But for some reason it rejoices in the Capital Letters...

I was busy taking part in a different one; a re-enactment of part of Owain Glyn Dŵr's rebellion near Cardiff.

Despite the historical evidence to the contary, the Welsh did better than expected.

Who won yours?

Won one, lost one :D
