Hoyin,
I agree with you about the "fun" part. If re-enacting wasn't fun there would be no reason to do it. One thing we really enjoy is the traveling tavern called "The Whistling Pig". It's a big marquee tent where we all gather post-battle and pass around a big wooden bowl filled with what ever spirits we've brought. As the bowl goes round the table, we sing 18th century drinking and ribald songs like "Fathom the Bowl", "Captain Thunder", and "Maids, When You're Young, Never Wed an Old Man" (I love the chorus of that one:
He's got no fallorum,
Fi-diddle, fi-dorum.
He's got no fallorum,
Fi-diddle, di-aye!
He's got no fallorum,
He's got no ding-dorum!
Maids, when you're young,
Never wed an old man!
And you're welcome for the website.
