. And everything could be done according to how it would have been done back then. Doesn't it sound lovely?
Well, for a start fire regulations wouldn't let you have all those candles - no electric light you know. No heating or cooling for that matter, other than an open fire or maybe a stove. And no plumbing! No showers. No hair dryers. No bras. No elastic!. No deodorant (eeeuw!!). No electric iron. No washandwear fabrics. No nylon pantihose. No cars to get there. No refrigerated drinks. No refrigerated food! No makeup. Head lice. No orthodontics.
So while it would be great fun, don't forget that EVERYTHING can't be done according to how it would have been done back then - otherwise it would be an experience we might all find a little unpleasant!
