Well as ever my very good friend Dave has come up trumps again. He has hopefully sorted out my spam problem and it should limit the amount of spam that will come through. He is now officially my webmaster for the site GRIN Thank you Dave!

Been attending a few medieval shows over the last couple of weeks and just had my Birthday which is why there has been a gap between my postings. Waiting for the next project to come in, otherwise I shall be getting on with costume.

Thanks for visiting!

Hi all,
Just to let you know I have had to disable the comments for a while as I have been bombarded with spam. So if I have missed any whilst deleting them please ignore it. This time it seems to be about the online game World of Warcraft. It's not genuine so please do not look at the link. Hopefully I can restore the comment option soon, in the meantime you can still email me through the site if you need to contact me.

Thanks
JoMARVIN

Just come back from filming half a day on Doctors, didn't do much but the interesting thing was I was being filmed by a TV Crew along with the 3 other supporting artists there for a BBC One magazine show called Inside Out. They were doing a feature on Supporting Artists and filmed us on set and behind the scenes as well as an interview. It should be aired around November time, will let you know nearer the time.

I went along to the Tewkesbury Medieval Festival, Gloucestershire 12th/13th July and took part in the Jousting show. The Saturday was a bit damp with a few heavy showers but the Sunday shone through with lovely sunshine. Gave me a chance to show off my new medieval dress from which I had so many compliments of how lovely it looked. I came across a really lovely photo of me on Bruce the horse! The lady who took it Alison Plant was gracious to send me a copy of it so I could post it here, thanks Alison.

Hardwick School Fete - Cambridge 5th July 2008 
Seems a while since on the last troop so looked forward to see some familiar faces. This event was organised by UKG member Mark as his children attend the school. The days events kicked off with our very own Cpt Jack Sparrow opening the event and was then followed by introducing all the UKG characters in attendance. Darth Vader arrived in "force" GRIN with several stormtroopers and Boba Fett. The Movie/Reel Icon characters were also very well represented with Batman, Indiana Jones, Austin Powers, Ghostbuster, Cnl Jack O'Neil (Stargate) and a Viper Pilot from Battle Star Gallactica, Cpt Jack Sparrow and yours truely as Xena.
Thankfully the weather was on our side, though a little breezy was nice and sunny. The crowds came out and all the characters went down a storm with everyone. The kids were able to obtain an autograph sheet and collect all the characters signatures which was very popular.

Indy finished off the days events by officially opening the new school block by cracking his whip to break the ribbon. The ribbon was not playing fair on the day but eventually gave in with a bit of a tug!
The day was topped off with a great social at Marks house in the evening which rounded off a great troop. Really enjoyed the troop and the feedback from the children confirms they loved it too!
Further photos of the event can be found here:
