1991 Cataract Convention:
This was an event I that organised in association with Wayne and
Glenda Robinson. While inclement weather did provide some disruption
this was overall a successful event. The highlight being the battle
(shown left) on the long wooden causeway. Certainly some of the
most intense and impressive combat I have ever been in (it certainly
also amused the people at the 4WD convention next door as well).

The 1993 Glenfield camp:
This event was not plagued by inclement weather and overall
the event went quite well however, the cooks had some
issues when they found the range of gas equipment on site
was not connected to anything.
Also the first-aid attendants became quite paranoid, taking
people to hospital on about a dozen occasions, fortunately
often unnecessarily.
On the right is pictured an Ancient Greek
fight by the group Ammass.

The event...
1994 Oracle Computers Show:
This was the largest show we
ever performed, in front of a crowd of around 2000 at the
Sydney Entertainment centre with some 70 combat participants.
Here the honour guard...

|
...the beggar...
|
|
|
|
|
...the medieval-man MC...
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
...and some of the excellent and
plentiful fighting.
|
|

The evening culminated in a massive all-in
brawl with all 70 medievalists battling in an area the
size of half a doubles tennis court.
At this point it really did seem that
everyone in the crowd of thousands had brought along at
least one flash camera.

The only disappointment (aside
from some of the lighting) was that the musicians were arseholes.
