The table for playhouse is only £35 so hopefully will make a profit a that one. (Fingers crossed). So far all the fairs that I have done have been really good!

Hi Mumof4/5

hope you ended on a high on Saturday. I done very well and then yesterday was at a Truck Show didn't do bad either but on the plus side someone came over and booked and paid their deposit to me for their wedding which is coming up soon. In fact had to ring home and check was date available.

It was lovely to meet you Sinead I know you said I had met you before but me being me couldn't remember. I take it you'll be back at Armagh next year

mumoffour77

Lol, Choco.....try and keep me away next year!!!
What a day!!! It was brilliant!!
I had a lady giving me her details so that I (when things calmed down) ring her....guess what, got a massive order!! (I am still in shock)
The lady beside me works in a maternity shop in Armagh and said she would display for me...."its just another outlet" she said!!
Jim was brilliant, I felt my pitch was great for a first timer!!
I brought 80 of my Hair accessories.....I came home with 18!!!
The Girls Brigade have been on the phone too....so maybe something will come off that!!
Your son was lovely!! And so helpful!!
Natalya loved her chocolate.....wee imp ate my strawberry too!!!

I am still mortified about the bungee leads!!

I would highly recommend this fair to everyone on the board!!
