It is the Ermine Street Guard in the main picture, although as far as I know they are not doing any events at Caerleon this year. Britannia will be at the event in June. Not sure about any of the other activities.

oops sorry forgot to mention, not all our members feel the need to bash each other and we have plenty of civilian non fighters showing the gentler side of roman/briton living :oops:

I can vouch for all of the above written by Martin as my own group have participated in a number of events with the Vicus.
While they may have a gentler side they do prefer to bash each other. Its more fun isn't it mate :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: Regards, Gary

Thanks for your posts. Am on my way back from a wedding at Pembroke on the Sunday.. depending on a potential hangover I might just be cowering by the gentler members!

Excellent, will pop over and say hello (if we stop off - weather permitting). My husband asked me at an event last weekend how I seemed to know of so many random people, I told him it's the joys of being an internet nerd

Aah! I didn't realise you were at Lunt, I would have said hello- or maybe I did ? I spoke to a few of you guys anyhow not realising you were on RAT. :lol: Was it your son who was doing a grand job of ensuring the troops were fed and watered? I also befriended a cute little pet dog there who kept wanting to play 'fetch'. It was a great day out, cheers!

Yes that was son no 1 and his friend! he likes a job to do, earlier he had been on kitchen duties (grinding spices that kind of thing) son no2 not keen on working-I think he has aspirations for the Patrician class!
