Iron Age reenactment

 About 20 years ago me and my son got briefly involved with Roman era reenactment. I can't find any photos of us doing it but we did some fun things including a tv programme on Boudicca filmed at Butser Iron age village. I did a drawing for a poster. The group the Vicus is still going. They say 

 ''The Vicus is an historical re-enactment society that portrays the Roman invasion of Britain in the 1st century AD, from the initial invasion of Claudius in 43 AD, though the revolt of Boudicca in 60-61 AD to the final battle against Roman rule at Mons Graupius in Scotland in 84 AD. We portray military and civilian life for both the native iron-age tribes of Britain and the invading Roman Empire.''
