With less than a week to go now people are working on various bits of kit in preparation for the weekend. Kit must be cleaned and mended and any modifications made before Friday or Saturday.

The event should be a good one. Romanorum Cavalry will be taking part in the parade and a few members may be around to speak to the public afterwards.

To make it extra special, this will the first outing of the Persian aswâr in public - a sight not to miss! More pictures in the Gallery and on his personal website.

One of our members is also working on a Sarmatian impression, and you may be able to recognise certain elements of Western steppe culture and tradition creeping in.

Be sure to come and check it out! Look out for the Drafsh-e-Kaviyani and the Draco side-by-side!
