As usually life goes on.

I have had quite a busy feburary, I held the King Atte Winter Feast for our shire. It was great fun but a lot of work.
We were around 25 - 30 people I designed the menu and stood in the kitchen a lot, but I had Cecilia and Eira as assistants as well as a few others. I started of by holding a 2 hour introduction about the SCA for the new people. We had some from denmark and some from a few other places that visited us. It is always fun to make new friends.

  

 I have changed my workplace so now I have to commute for 35 minutes via train and I have to get to the trainstation wich is a good 20 min walk in the morning and evening.

Yesterday we held a preperation day for double wars so now we have a half finished sun roof and a lot of site tokens. Today we went with the shire to a reenactment store wich is also a cafe. We had scones with jam and butter and I bought 10 meters of wool. I got 2 meters of a beautifull orangie reddish colour that I plan to use for a viking caftan. I also got 4 meters of green and 4 meters of brown wool that I can use for trousers, tunics etc. I managed to pic up some patterns for viking clothing too so it looks like the next dress is going to be a viking/ saxon/ rus style. Wich goes well with my armour and the fyrd Halfdan.





We have shields comming, I have scales for my lamellar armour and paracord on the way. My Bazubands from Torvaldr has finaly arrived. So all I need to do is fix the new leg armor and sew the fighting kit.

Apart from SCA I have been going to a few interesting seminars. We did Yin Bagua Zhang for Fredrik, Sifu Wan Kam Leung from Hong Kong was in Malmö and held a seminar in Wing Chun and Andreas Hoffmann held a seminar in Gee Sim Weng Chun in Copenhagen. This was in three weeks. :) Next fun thing in the practice/ training area of my life is that we are going to master Brian in the end of march for a Tai Chi Chuan weekend. Hopefully I will get a lot closer to the end of the third section of the first form and finish the emtpy hands form. After that master Xian is here between the 5 - 11 th of april for a week of Xin Yi. That is going to be fun. 


Group photo after the Chi Sim Weng Chun Kung Fu seminar in Copenhagen. Great fun.

After that Double Wars and then.... I don´t know.

But the best thing is that I get to see J again soon.
