From the Substantial Portions of Colonial House that I've been Watching so far, -They're Doing a Whole Lot Better than your Centurions! But I Think I've Seen an Occassional Some of what you Mention.
It Seems the Romans were just Carrying their Meditteranean Ways up into the Cold Lands of the North! (The Sandals you Mention). Just Out of Force and Inertia, of their Customs and Habits. People Sometimes Unwisely just Don't Adapt to New and Different Conditions!
Within the Last Several Years, -I've also Seen Parts of Another Such Show. I've Read Posts about it on our Forums. It's the One which Involves that Karen Women (Raines?, Perhaps?).
Where Another Family has to Get their Horse or Cow Off their Grounds, -The Girls Have an Utterly Miserable Time Milking Out in the Weather, -Karen, I Think Remarks that if those Others would First Only Use so Much of a Bottle of Liquid, to then Dilute and Stretch the Rest Out with Water!, -They Could then Make it Last Much Farther! That Show! It's been Talked About here.
I Agree Much with What you've said there! Concerning at Least Some to Many of these Re-Enactment Shows / Experiments. And of at Least More Soft Modern Man in General!
It Seems however to be Substantially Less So with Colonial House, than with your "New Centurions"! [color:"black"] [/color] [email]joblot[/email]
