Hi,

We are hoping to go. It would be Thursday or Saturday.

If we come on Thursday I will keep an eye out. My husband is interested in woodturning.

We haven't been to the show for a few years now. It has something for everyone. I look at all the craft stands and John goes off to talk to all his farming acquaintances. Just needs good weather!

I'll be the lanky old guy with long hair. Weather forecast seems good forThursday, cooler but that's not bad.

Hi Pete,

We didn't manage Thursday so we went to the show today. Wet!!
There were so many people just dawdling about. It was very good
though and I bought an Alpaca fleece to spin. John saw lots of people
he knows and I nearly bought a floor steamer. Glad I didn't! The salesman
was awful and ignored us so we left and I have found the same cleaner
on the internet £20 cheaper!! And post free!!

I was very tired and had a sleep when we got home!

How did you get on?

Maggie

Pretty good overall. I was there for the first two days so didn't get rained on at all. A lot of people browsing and making enquiries and a few buyers. Here's a couple of pics of the stall (if that's OK)

Good fun but reallly tiring standing for 8 hours a day
