Azincourt 2015?
adb:
Does anyone have any news, or know what's going on with the planned Azincourt 2015 commemorative shoot planned for late July?
Is there still going to be a shoot this summer in Azincourt?
WillS:
Complete pain in the ass Adam. It's ready, and there are dates set and a schedule from Emmett now, but unless you're willing to spend a fortune on historically accurate clothing and send in photos for scrutiny you're not gonna have a chance of attending. We're talking butted maille aventails being banned because it should be riveted type accuracy. Can't wear cotton, cos it wasn't common enough. Has to be wool. Can't wear boots above the ankle as there's no artwork showing it. Can't wear joined hose, but split hose pointed to braies is too early.
It's a pain. And I know people are forced to pull out due to it.
adb:
Where is all this info? I can't find a thing.
WillS:
Facebook only at the moment. The websites are terrible, and quite out of date. The latest info he released was a pdf of a schedule, but it was half a page long and didn't really offer much new.
I believe most of the ewbs are planning a trip down to the field before it all kicks off and have a shoot. Not sure on details of that yet however.

If 5,000 armed people show up at the gates it would be a brave man to tell them all to leave because they fall beneath the dress code...
