Greetings, we are continuing the experiment in Victorian living by holding a true Victorian dinner in January of 2012. We have set out the criteria below and welcome your responses. We decided not to do the Christmas Dinner because it is a very busy time of year for folks, especially those with small children. So a dinner in January it is. Read on good gentles...
We are looking for like minded people to share a dinner with us.Sometime in january of 2012.The year is 1865 and there is much to talk about. Join us for a truely authentic dinner. You must love history enough that you will be able to stay in 1st person period for the entire visit. Wear authentic clothing true to the period. And participate according to the manners and customs of the year 1865. You might want to hone up on parlour games as well.You will apply to attend in a true period manner. So use your imagination. The mailing address will be given to those interested. Please only serious responses. Also this is not a steam punk event.
This is part of an experiment we have embarked on and are continuing to live for the next year. have a look at our blog and see what we are doing.

Hi there! I think that Dru and I (aka Emer & Corrig) would be really interested in this. I'm assuming we'd have to find a sitter for our children (probably too little) so I'd have to know the date in advance, but the grandparents are all in London. Please let me know more about your ideas!
ReplyDeleteI would be really interested but I don't have appropriate clothing and it is too far to drive for a few hours, especially in winter. I love the idea though.
ReplyDeleteSam and I would be interested, but we need to know as long in advance as possible so we could get ready in time.
ReplyDeleteI've only just found your blog. From St. Thomas, this sounds so intriguing and super cool. I had once watched a special on Netflix about a couple who lived without hyrdo for a year. I love to investigate history in museums and so forth and wouldn't even know what to wear to the manners of the day. Super cool idea. Keep in touch, daldak01@yahoo.ca
