It is always interesting to talk to people who are
passionate about their hobbies.
In the old town of Fredrikstad we talked to a man
dressed up in an old uniform showing different
the kind of personal equipment used by soldiers
in the past.
He then told us that when he wanted a uniform
for himself, he first gave the job to a seamstress,
but she did too good a job.
In other words, the old uniforms were made with
much rougher needlework.
To get the uniform the way he wanted and had
seen in museums, he made it himself.
Look closely on the photo!
He also told that he had twice participated in
reenactments at Waterloo.
I was once at Waterloo, but as a tourist.
