Belle - count me in for your event whenever and if you need a hand with anything let me know. How long is the H'Boro garden thing on for? Couldn't be £250 for a day?..... could it?...! I'm at Belmont Feb and April so thought may as well go to Bangor in March! I've also been emailing the organisers of Belfast Feile who hold event throughout the year, and Artsector who organised the Belfast Mela and have a few indian and ethnic festivals coming up - will keep you all posted!

£293.75 after VAT has been added on. I'm hoping it will be on a similar scale to Balmoral Show which was good for us last year but i guess I'll not know til I try it. I paid it on my husbands credit card so it has to go well

Well if we are not doing stalls elsewhere we should all agree to come and visit you and buy something!!!! Sorry about my initial shock! I get het up over a fair charging anything more than £25 a day - if it is on that sort of scale then I am sure it will be worth it...poor credit card, but good on you for taking the punt! :T

Just a wee update on craft fair 27 March, anyone who is interested and sell jewellery please don't apply. I have booked the tables for them and I am not taking any more jewellery so the girls can have a fair shot. Thanks

Belle, I'm definately interested too wherever you decide to run it

Fi996, I didnt do the Garden Festival last year but I have it booked for this year & am keeping everything crossed that I dont end up out a small fortune but from what I have heard it attracts a good crowd

book lady - have u done it before then or is this yr ur 1st at it?

I think the only way I could even consider H'Boro is if anyone wanted to half with me (assuming the organisers would allow that) Any takers - preferably not another jewellery person!! :eek:

This is my 1st year doing it. I was very tempted last year but we tried Balmoral for the 1st last year so didnt want to take the chance with Hillsborough as well just incase they didnt work out & we ended up at a loss
