Happy to help anyone out who wants to buy one!!!!!

Looking forward to Bangor Elim, the Church is huge - we have been to a couple of their events in the past (not craft fairs) and they were all really well supported so fingers crossed!

Think I might be here all night though, waiting for these cakes to cook!

Do all call round for coffee, pie and a chat, maybe we will have a crafters Crimbo get together here or something!

We are looking forward to it too.

I might take you up on your Christmas cake - depends whether I can get my baking hat on or not.

A crimbo night sounds great. We would love that.
A nice way to celebrate as a group of crafters. :snow_laug:snow_laug:snow_laug

Emma has had 3 recent additions to her family - all going cluck cluck cluck and laying lovely eggs! I was chatting to her earlier and will pass on your comments - think the hens are keeping her busy at the minute!

Looking forward to seeing all of you at all the shows!:eek:

hi jen - welcome :j im a newbie too being made to feel very welcome!

Glassact - my partner is indeed the potter based in the gardens, with the little show room there too! I probably know you to see then! Or at least your dog - i always seem to remember them better lol - have they tried a dog biscuit yet? We are currently trying to perfect some reciepes! Do you do rowallanes christmas fair?

Smokiewater - i hope to get to mount stewart on the sunday - will be sure to come and say hi and test some treats! And hopefully buy some of your strawberry,mint & malibu jam, sounds yummy, and suitably sweet! You arent doing pumpkinfest are you? Just visiting?

glad you feel welcome. Smokie and i are having a bit of a moan so you will have to excuse us.must call and get my dog honey to try your biscuits. I cant get into rowallane fair. Booked solid. They dont do a big one like the other national trust places which is a pity as they are the headquarters. Maybe you could have a word with them and they could get a marquee because they could fill it and raise more money.

Where do you all get those different icons from the ones here?

smokie - are your christmas cakes terribly pretty? and the traditional type? if so put me down for one, as long as they arent too large my mum adores christmas cake - however she is the only one left in the house who does lol :eek:

Hi all
seems like ages since i had time to be on here ( haven't been to a fair in months:( ) and you could say i have been busy doing nothing. Between running after big son who is now at secondery collage and has a better social life than me and wee son who is just running rings round me!!!!!! But the good news is i have a couple of small local fairs booked in and have to pull my finger out and get a bit of stock made up and this weekend i will be at the food fair at Mountstewart and i will be making soda bread with my friend to on our school PTA stall so if anyone will be there give us a shout :j

Anyone doing Groomsport??? I thought £30 for 2 hours was a bit steep so decided against it.

A few people have said this so its now £20

Thanks for all the lovely welcome messages! I'm intrigued to meet everyone! lol! Shipped Mr JenniMac over to his mum's in London for a few days, so have managed to spend the whole night crafting without any whinging about man-flu or such. Bliss! Finally got stuck in to making some kilt pin brooches, and I'm well chuffed with myself! Will have to take some pics and put them up on website and get you all to tell me what you think.

Hello Peeps! :wave:I'm having a weekend off and were planning to go off to north coast in the camper but hubby just started a new job (after year unemployed - Hooray!) and may have to work Saturday!! If at home should really spend time making up load more stock for all the fairs coming up between now and Christmas - keep meaning to do up some beaded baubles but they take so bloomin long keep putting it off!!! Can anyone tell me the time for the Bangor fair on Nov 6th? I'm booked in but just got a letter saying that morning is familiarisation day for my son at Wallace where he's sitting his AQE the following week so now I'm trying to work out how to be in two places at once...!
