King Henry VIII Birthday Party Circ 1526

  • Mood:
  • ?: I the Renaissance

"You are hereby Commanded to Attend His Majesty, King Henry VIII, for the Celebration of His Birthday Saturday April 8, 1526 at His Court at Greenwich at 8:00 p.m"

 By Order of His Majesty:

Yeah so on Saturday I attended the Royal Abingdon Renaissance Faire fundraising event.  We all dressed up pretty and as close to period garb as we could muster and had a ball!

There were Morris Dancers, a mask, and a court was even held where his majesties master of the rebels was knighted.

The mead was delicious and the wenches left no man unmarked.

I won a t-shirt and we all got free passes to the Faire this summer (which I'm looking forward to).

Here you can see my friend Maven and my roommate Shauna got dragged into the dancing:

Oh, the revelry!

And here I found my knight in shining armour:

But alas, he is below my station and it will never be!

But I digress...

I looked darn hot that night!   Had a blast and will tell you all about the actual Faire when it comes.

Goodnight, goodnight...

Parting is such sweet sorrow that I shall say goodnight till it be morrow.

3 Amusements.

Sounds like fun!
I've always wanted to attend one of those.

Now that sounds like my kind of celebration...hehehe...mead flowing and dancing wenches....hehehe...and your comment about him being below your station was hilarious!!...I lived in Toronto for a lot of years yet never once went to the medieval place at the CNE grounds where they have the jousting and the big feast...but alas, it wasn't to be...lol. Just popped in for a coffee in the hope you're having a great weekend. I'll be getting an email off to you in the next little while(today) as well as another that I'll be sending to each of our staff members. Hope you're having an awesome day!TTYS. Nick

Too bad the RAF (Royal Abingdon Faire) isn't happening! And hopefully they use the funds raised to pay the perfomers who still have yet to be paid from last year!

Yes....I get all the dirt. ;)
