Quote:Wonder if its an image and a cost thing. Cost means that its more of a middle aged hobby, which in turn gives it an image of something enjoyed by middle aged guys. :?:I think so. It took me a while before I could afford the stuff that I wanted to have. And yes, I know now (not back then) that one can start with just a tunic, boots and a spear, and that lots could be made yourself. So I started with a budget.. at age 35.
