Official Calais Event Details Thanks, Jenn edited to add URL [ 04-09-2004: Message edited by: Fire Stryker ]

My plan is to be there, but I am in about to lose job, interviewing for new jobs mode right now. As long as what ever new job I get has no problem letting me off I am there.James -------------------- James Barker Lord Grey's Retinue http://www.lordgreys.org

I'll be there thats 100% sure now.I'm still going to need a bit of help with my soft kit... What I currently have: turnshoes braies metal tiped points St. Louis style shirt Fourth Armoury Haubergeon Lewis Moore Salade (need to make a liner though). I;m working on getting a sword, but need a decent one so this may take a bit longer than I thought initally. So far, I've had a lot of offers for help which I appreciate, it's making the transition from my SCA mindset to the LH mindset a lot easier.

Hey Evil Merlin,Welcome to the FS board. I think we've probably got you covered. Jeff Johnson has an "Incredible" pile o' stuff. We have a few swords and pole arms ourselves. Do you have a tent or will you need "crash space"? Jenn -------------------- ad finem fidelis

JennI promised Bill (EM) that Jeff and I would bring up gear for him and clothes. I am also 99% sure I will make it so I will write a check for you guys tonight. We are going to bring my tent so there will be room for a few people if they need a place to crash. What is the plan on food? You have mentioned something about bring $10, it would be great if we could avoid needing a cooler for the trip.

Hi James,I just need to know whether you're bringing food or not. If you don't want to drag a cooler and the food, that cool, just sing out so that Nikki and I can plan and buy the appropriate provisions to meet the needs of the "campers".  Great Bill, I'll keep an eye out for it. Jenn -------------------- ad finem fidelis

Well then Jenn put Jeff and I down as loafers not bringing food. We are trying to keep our load size down because we don’t have a trailer just my mid-sized SUV. Also I put a check in the mail this morning. The site looks great and I look forward to the event. James -------------------- James Barker Lord Grey's Retinue http://www.lordgreys.org

Jeff/James, let me know if you'd like me to send you my Refined Boston/DC Driving Route, with pointers to the cheapest available gas stations and fine eating establishments (cheap & fast), crafted over 20+ round trips in the past 5 years. I usually make it from Boston to DC (or back again) in 8 hours or less, and a bit less than one tank of gas (on my 40+ mpg Jetta); the site is probably about 30-45 minutes closer than Boston.The tentative menu is: Saturday. Breakfast: wheat frumenty and/or rice pottage sausages: chicken and pork Lunch: pork roast with choice of sauce (yellow pepper and cameline), bread, cheese, salad of greens, elderflower cheesecake snack: experimental pretzels Sunday. Breakfast: bacon, 15th century style french toast (lost bread and brown fries) Lunch: roasted poultry with optional sauce, roasted onion salad, cheese, bread, gingerbread or maybe some kind of fruit thing
