{putting} a tent up Kentwell Hall, ready for this week’s hands on living history reenactment. Forecast was for a very hot day, so I went as early as I could to get sorted before the heat set in. Still hot work, particularly putting it up on my own, but I have now cracked how to put it up alone.

{searching} for a missing page cloak and hat. We have enough hats for everyone to be decently covered, but I’m cross that the mystical safe place has expanded to eat cloaks now.

{packing} all the stuff I have found.

{thinking} about past, present and future. Reenactment is an odd way to spend your leisure time I suppose, and it gives an odd perspective on both the past and the present. Today I spent some time on my own on the barnsward, and it felt to me like the buildings were waiting for us. Very odd sensation.

Big is away at camp, which is very odd. Small is all ready to go for another stint of paging, Smallest is very much looking forward to catching up with some friends, and Tigerboy is ready for some outdoor time.
