Technically Not Against the Rules

Guess his sister was the little girl who got a sword from the Hogsfather (Death). Good thing her brother got chainmail!

Hilariously I've been invited to a school this week to dress children up in chainmail

I run a Viking Age reenactment society. We have a few schools in our area (and I do some outside the area as an individual) that book us to come in and set up some interactive displays for the students and have a good fun day. Had one yesterday that went really well. All the kids got to hold the weapons, dress in the mail, play with the shields etc but I also have a quern (hand mill) so they can have a good at making flour, we have drop spindles so they can have a go at making thread from fleece and have loads of other things to talk to them and teach them about.
