Our carpenters Beigan and Bjarni made planks and wood-nails for clinker-construction, while our blacksmith <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/wielandforge\/?locale=en_GB\">Yngvar<\/a> made ships nails and roves to rivet them together. Solveig the Viking (aka <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/LucyTheTudor\/?locale=en_GB\">Lucy the Tudor<\/a>), Hrefna and \u00deorunn spun and weaved, and did nalbinding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Throst made a &#8220;Traveller&#8217;s Porridge&#8221; based on &#8220;An Early Meal&#8221; by Daniel Serra, while Lo\u00f0inn talked brewing. Members of the public worked hard grinding barley into flour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Steinar, Kenelm and Snorri showed off arms and armour, Hrothgar talked about trade and showed off goods from around the Viking world. Kael cast jewellery, Hermish helped members of the public strike their own Viking coin, and Lofthaena made paint from red ochre and egg yolk. And there&#8217;s probably more we&#8217;ve forgotten!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also at Repton Festival we did 5 combat displays (check out <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/reel\/288085774154220\">one on Facebook here<\/a>), including weapons demonstrations, historical and for entertainment! We talked about the phases of a battle, how men were organised, our thoughts on &#8220;shield walls&#8221; and how dane axes could be used in a battle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It was a fantastic weekend, and only a small portion of what we can do.
