We actually made our planned purchases at TRF closing weekend;
2 pairs of shoes, a bone hilt rapier and dagger.
I would still like to find some solid black gauntlets for his Lordship, maybe this year.
Anyone have plans for purchases this year?

Mead and beer, definitely!  Nothing really planned, per se, but I always support the vendors.

I know the PP is just drooling over new boots, but we shall see.  Everything for me has to be custom made for my character.  Saddly I cant' buy them at faire.
It is kind of strange watching your personal history become costume.

Okay, now I read your response and first thing that came to my mind was why would I be looking at guys.
Really LOL now.

Oh, I dunno, Ferret. When my Nimue and I were first dating, she used to wear pseudo-kilts... she would definitely knock your eyes out. Admittedly, it was 40+ years ago, but...oh, my! (She's still a babe to me!)

Well, if I'm able to attend this yr, I'm hoping to buy a feather fan & a tin or pewter mug. :)
Why be mundane when you can be a Rennie?!

That was my purchase last year and i can highly recommend these boots.
Son of Sandlar in both 60. A lot cheaper than the others.... my concern was that they wouldn't be as comfortable but after speaking to more than 1 person who has both...these ranked higher in being comfortable. I marched in 6 or 7 parades and on other days just walked the fair from 10am- closing and they felt great. Not a blister....nothing.

This year.... I may get a utility type kilt to wear at work sometimes.

Other than that.... beers and scotch eggs and meat pies and shepherds pie and wine and calzones and shrimp bowls and fish-n-chips and red beans with rice and steak on a stick and stir fry.....  then on the next day I want to get.....

I completely understand. I have seen some beautiful Ladies in kilt type attire.

The funny part was that wasn't my first reaction. I'm still laughing when I think of my error.

I want to expand my collection of dragon jewelry and accessories. I have 4 dragon rings, a dragon necklace, a dragon hair spiral (which I wear in my beard...not enough hair to hold one), three large dragon prints from LA Williams (and a dozen+ small ones), a Ballena Bay dragon goblet... I'm a wizard...I like dragons!
