A Rossamünd Costume

A Rossamünd Costume

Given today is October 31st, I thought a bit of costume action would be appropriate.


Ben, 10, the son of a friend of a friend of mine (the faithful and rather clever Sue-Ellen who gets me out of fixes with Latin and Greek) wanted to dress as Rossamünd for his school’s book parade this week.

... And so he did.

I think his costume looks rather splendid; I especially like the battered old backpack and the untied shoe lace. These images makes me realise just how small and vulnerable Rossamünd was when he first left the foundlingery.

I must say, I really dig all these Half-Continent costumes folks make. Thank you Ben... and his mum too, I reckon!
