Practice started with Sirona presenting me a fillip shirt for fighting, that I can wear without the doublet. Black with red stitching for trim, and much more freedom of movement than my ebay special doublet. Although since I sweated off the pounds fencing, the doublet fits better than it used to. It would be nice to see if the doublet could maybe be rebuilt without the velcro to make it more period, because I've always liked that color But I also want to try the new fillip with my tartan, see how that looks.
Fighting went well tonight even though attendance was small. Cillian didn't suit up, but I fought William, Tom and Sirona, and we all did some German longsword drills. Fights were mostly single longsword, with a little bit of work on case. With half the shire off at Pennsic, a very relaxed evening.
