The Bath Minuet ball

Finally the yr 12 play is over so I get a chance to post some photos for you all! I'm putting them



And since I'm incapable of acting like a lady ALL night ;)

A couple of shots before the dancing started, with most of our group:


I was sooo pleased with my pouf! The rat was only the culmination of a couple of years of saving my hair combings each day ;)

I think this one needs to be an icon ...

Poor Mummy got so tired by the time we got back home, she couldn't even manage to get upstairs in one go!

I also have a couple of picks of my new floral polonaise from the 'costumed ceilidh' we went to a couple of weeks ago.


The ball was wonderful! I think it may be the best event we do all year! I'm really sad to post the photos though, because this is the only way my US buddies will get to see the dress, it was going to make up part of my CosCon or CosCol wardrobe if I'd been able to swing the trip :( But there's no chance I'll make a trip to the US this year, but maybe next year if I save really hard (no pretty satin 18thC shoes for me!)
After the ball a group of us went to a local National Trust place, Dyrham Park, in a mixture of mostly Regency with a few in 18thC. I have more photos to share, but will put them in another post, I have to upload them first ;)
