• Opened the coat back up to do some repairs and adjustments to the buttons. Much faster than I would have thought. Perhaps they did actually know what they were doing in the 18th century.

  • #repost Posted @withregram • @denisbyrdart I had fun shooting some video for the Beginners guide to the 18th century with @ancestraldaughter and @robertclayphoto this weekend. We covered a lot of topics from why would an American choose to reenact as a British soldier with @nchr71st why did the Scots fight for the English, why am I not wearing a kilt, and much more. If you are interested in learning more about 18th century material culture, living history, and interpretation be sure to visit @ancestraldaughter or @thelinenagency to sign up for the membership site. 📸 @robertclayphoto

  • Exercise is important to maintaining health while social distancing. Unfortunately, social distancing is not possible with shinty. Looking forward another match with the @84th_rhe once this is all over. #shinty . . . 📸 @robertclayphoto

  • As we are all practicing social distancing right now, here is a look back at Camden 2019. The sergeant is inspecting the Guy Fawkes Bonfire. He looks most pleased, would you agree? . . . 📸 @robertclayphoto

  • Since we are all quarantined from reenacting for a while, maybe now is a good time to brush up on your 18th century games. Games were a popular diversion among soldiers and civilians alike in the 18th century. Here’s @ancestraldaughter at the Battle of Charlotte re-enactment beating everyone at dominos, a common occurrence in the 71st. 😕 . . . 📸 @shuleraj

  • Today’s #modernlessmarch theme by @pinsent_tailoring is #love. We love our goofy collection of weirdos! Our group is much more than just dressing in funny clothes. We are drawn together by our love of history but over the years it becomes much more like a family! Here’s to the Lads and Lasses of the North Carolina Highland Regiment and 71st Regiment of Foot! Sláinte Mhath!

  • #joy is today’s theme for the #modernlessmarch challenge by @pinsent_tailoring Ok we might also be exhausted after an intense game of Shinty at the Battle of Charlotte reenacting @lattaplantation last September. There is definitely joy participating in a hobby we love and reenacting an aspect of life we often forget. Yes, just like today, soldiers in the 18th century played games and participated in various other distractions when not on duty. Shinty has become one of most entertaining aspects of living history the past two years. Here we are after defeating our friends in the @84th_rhe God Save the King! . . . 📸 @robertclayphoto

  • About 6 months ago, our president began the process of making a new and more historically accurate regimental coat. It’s all hand sewn mind you! We have learned a lot over the years and the passage of #time. The old coat is on the left and the bright shiny new coat is on the right. #modernlessmarch @pinsent_tailoring
