TORM to its friends is on in mid-November. It occupies both sports halls of Sports Connexion at Ryton on Dunsmore near Coventry and is vast. Much of it is reenactor-specific, like swords, armour, period footwear, but there are vendors selling more generally interesting stuff like:
- 100% woollen cloth
- 100% linen and silk, including brocades
- naturally dyed linen tapes and braids
- miscellaneous haberdashery including pins, hooks, unusual buttons, boning
- also hats, musical instruments, glass and ceramics etc
There are usually vendors selling farmers' market grade cakes.
If you're interested I recommend Friday as it's the day that the theatrical and TV types descend whereas Saturday and Sunday it's heaving with reenactor types. If you can't do Friday, get there early at the weekend.
