Clothes are best bought from charity shops, then hunt eBay for the accessories like bowler hats, flat caps, oil lamps.....false beards and sideboards etc..... Plenty of photo oppottunities in Cwmorthin -- Crime doesn't stand a chance .... IP: 82.132.210.72

I might need to adapt mine to Victorian standards though. Would enjoy coming if this is an open event, I did promice I'd get to Wales in Jan at last Quote: I wouldn't mind getting some shots of people actually pretending to be mining, e.g. pushing a wagon or something, that would be fun for everyone but I guess lack of them in Cwmorthin which can be pushed around lol. -- jeg elsker Norge, landets dialekter, folk, landskap og naturen!
