Rochester Dickensian Christmas 2012

1/8/2012

I love dressing up! At the start of December we went to Rochester for the Christmas festival. And here's what we wore! This was the first time I got to wear my 'Katy Brown' dress, and I loved it (and was pretty relieved to find it still fit). John is wearing the frock coat and waistcoat I made for him last time, and the frock coat I made this year.

And here's a picture with a couple of random people we passed on the street and ran after to ask for a picture. Why these people? Because John really wants an American Civil War confederate officers uniform, and this guy is wearing one! Apparently he belongs to a motorcycle gang who drive round dressed like this - how cool is that!
As usual, I'm saying 'next time we go we'll make it to the ball - the post wedding finances wouldn't stretch to tickets and hotel this year, but I'm hoping next yer will be the one!
