Once I had my autograph and the moment captured on film, I returned to my room to attempt to call my mom’s cousin, who I would be seeing in Stratford-upon-Avon in a couple of days. Then I went down to the lobby to meet Kirsty, Kathye and Fiona. I was embarking on another walk - this time to Temple Meads Station. Kathye and I both needed money for some reason...I’m sure it had nothing to do with our numerous visits to the dealers tables!

I was amazed at the effort people put into their costumes! I thought that maybe a couple of people would look impressive, but I had no idea that there would be so many fantastic outfits! There were outlaws, monks and ladies. Some attendees even transformed into specific characters such as Loxley, Huntington, Owen of Clun and the Baron de Belleme! When we were finally admitted into the banquet hall, I felt a little under-dressed in my skirt and blouse...
