  • :xmassmileI have already sent an email about the wandsworth event - close to our wee shop, so good for publicity too!

    Glad you found the icons Glassact:rudolf:

    Our Son is at Mountstewart - he seems to be doing quite well, I came up to the shop today to help hubby, he hurt his ankle again yesterday! Obviously I am helping him by sitting chatting on the computer!

    I don't know how to spell Deirdre? but I think you should say I am the dark and mysterious one and Shee is the fabulous blond!

    Don't you just love the icons!:eek:

    Well Done :T:T:T you spelt Deirdre correctly - most people can't.

    Love your descriptions of Sheenagh and I - they are funny anf brill :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    I LOVE icons and enjoy picking ones to suit the message.
    Especially love the Christmas ones. :santa2::snow_laug:xmastree:

    Jen - I haven't got my form back to you yet form back yet but just Saturday would be OK for me.

    Ards is on my doorstep - I live in Comber and would be interested in 2 tables at that fair - any contact details?

    Agree with Glassact - Welcome to all the newbies - great to see you chatting and adding dates - Yippeee!

    I am at a food fair in Mountstewart this weekend - son is there at the minute - there is a huge marquee with only about 12 stalls in it - don't know why they didn't open it up to atleast afew crafters, even if they had to be food related!
    It would have been good if they could have let a few of of poor crafters share that big empty marquee - even if I would have been on my own this weekend :(:(

    hi handbag lady
    how do we go about getting a tables at your craft fair?
  • Hi handbag lady - my partner is a potter - I run a cafe and make homemade dogs treats, cupcakes etc - though I am mainly interested for my partner. Is it an established craft fair? How many tables might you fit in?
  • Hi Laurabell,

    This is the second year of the fair. We hope to have around 20 tables, so far 11 tables have been booked.

    A potter would be excellent

    To book table email irismc@fsmail.net

    Thank you:j

    I was only at Mountstewart myself on Sunday Afternoon - slacking off the rest of the time, leaving the Son and the Hubby to do the selling!

    Loads of people about and FAB weather - hope you raised lots for your school!

    Just catching up on admin here - shows seem to be changing all the time at the minute!:rudolf:

  • Hi there

    Just wanting to hear how the food fair at Mount Stewart went yesterday. I was going to go for a visit and couln't make it in the end. I love going to fairs and was looking forward to seeing some foodies to give me ideas for Chirtmas pressies. Would you have a list of all the exhibitors?
