So, did anyone else go to the re-enactment?  Basically, it was a massive "fate" between troops from Chesterfield (the Parliamentarians) and Bolsover (the Royalists).   After much drumming, marching, clashing of pikes, musket and canon firing and horses galloping, I'm sorry to say, Fly, that B'oser came second ;)

I thought that it was superbly presented.  On a personal level, the only downside was that I was challenged by an enforcement officer in the village camp for two offences .... firstly wearing men's clothing (trousers) and secondly for not wearing a hat.  I now have to appear before the magistrate tomorrow morning where my punishment will most probably be the Ducking Stool ....  well I think that's what he said.   :)

I started out with nothing and I've still got most of it left.

Had a run to the Holmebrook Valley Park. Very interesting although my young companion wasn't amused when she was pointed at and accused of  making some kind of magic and being a witch   :)) - (had the face painted as a dog  :)))
We all enjoyed it I think it was a first so maybe they will build on it and add maybe more charity stalls etc.
Not sure about the parking though as cars were lining the road, as my daughter had a sudden change of plans for her day she came along and we were allowed through the barriers to park in the car park displaying her blue badge.

Didn't know they now park over the road at the bottom of Rylah Hill   :-X
Not good with my current bad back  ::)

Just general sciatica back ache. Comes and goes. Sometimes months in between bouts.
I carried some rather large shopping bags for a customer Friday afternoon. Ought to have made 2 journeys.
Woke up Saturday with that annoying, random stab in the back, if I move too quick, fart, cough, or god forbid sneeze  :))
