Wednesday's Quote of the Day
"Bang" - What civil war re-enacters were asked to shout instead of firing weapons.
The members of the Sor Thomas Lunsford's Regiment of Foote, a unit of re-enacters from the English Civil War Society were rather excited by the chance to give an Easter demonstration at Clarke Hall in west Yorkshire. They became rather less excited when they were told that as explosions could shatter the old windows, they should shout "bang" instead of firing their replica weapons.
