The Sealed Knot ~ The Siege of Gloucester 2023 ~ Not a GREAT DAY for the Royalists!

We had a fabulous day at our 2nd Sealed Knot re - enactment - The Siege of Gloucester at Stanway House in the heart of the Cotswolds.
Did you take part in this event? Did you spot yourself in my video? Leave a comment, I'd be really interested to hear from you!
I will be posting a second video in a few days showing a little of the "living history" element of this wonderful event

Looked like a nice day to be outside enjoying a reenactment.

It was very nice, if a little windy at times 😊

Members of my family are taking part, it was a great event over 2 days, in rather warm temperatures. I would like to share this video with family and members ❤😊

Looks amazing and such a fun day! Thank you so much for sharing, take care x

It was a great day 😊

[@karinberonius8799]

I can't help but wonder if there were an invisible audience there, too, and if they were as impressed as I am. The commentators were doing a great job as well! 😂 I'm looking forward to part two!

[@paperandtwine]

There was quite a big audience 😊

It is rarely a great day for the Royalists

Where are the blacks, brown and tan people? This isn’t very inclusive, is it?

[@paperandtwine]

The Sealed Knot is open to all, but I see your point. However if people from different races don't think the organisation is for them, and don't join, I can't film them! Perhaps we could spread the word?

[@gentlemankane668]

@@paperandtwine I was pointing out the absurd by being absurd. It there were only white people involved in the siege then only white people should be in the re-enactment and you being all PC about seeing my point just underscores how ridiculous society had become. Thank God there has been a vibe shift away from the ridiculous woke mind virus. I will tell you this, if you let others in and don’t keep it white and true to history, the “Go Woke, Go Broke” saying will apply to your organization and the re=enactment. Good luck.

I mean given the Sealed Knot is a re-enactment society we aim to try and represent truthfully and as accurately as possible the men that fought and died fighting this war and in order to do this inclusivity has to be sacrificed in exchange for authenticity despite our modern want to see everyone represented.
