As I have done in the last five years, I shall be back at Skipton Castle again for a few weekends this summer 2012.

First I am hoping to attend the Tower Hamlets Trayned Bands Living History event there as a troubled musketeer on the weekend of the 4th and 5th August. Then I shall be there on my own first as ‘Swift Nicks’ Nevison the famous Yorkshire highwayman the following weekend (11th and 12th August) and after that as Colonel Sir John Mallory, castle governor, on the 25th and 26th August.

Here I am back in 2008 being Sir John …

It was 1645 again in 2008

I do not believe I have aged over much since then!
