Can anybody tell me where I can get reasonable cheap shoes for ECW please? I know there are shoe sellers at TORM, who is okay/cheap? Looking for a source for regimental slop chest, so Sarah Juniper standard is not in the budget, alas.

£4-50 per day or £11 for the full three days. There is also the NLHF (national living history fair) on the Saturday and Sunday of the same weekend, about five miles away. That's free but has fewer C17 traders. Jane and I did both last autumn, staying in a Travelodge overnight. NLHF is on FaceBook. TORM has a (not very wonderful) website at http://www.reenactorsmarket.co.uk

"I'm in rather urgent need of some over-knee length socks to go with a new LRP outfit, to simulate hose. I'm having a nightmare of a time finding a suitable supplier on Google. Could you recommend someone?"
Anyone?
