    THankyou for the welcome that was very nice of you. Regarding Apple Blossom the 2 names you mention are not the organisors as I heard these 2 names been talked about last week. I have heard of Geoff I think he had wooden huts someone told me at Junction 1 that he lets out. As for this Alex Berry I'm not sure if its a male/female but apparantely what he/she does is rent numerous spots from organisers and then resells them at alot more money. I do know the spots at Apple Blososm are either £30.00 or £50.00 for both days (a friend of mine has already made enquiries with organisors)and someone told me they weren't doing it because this Alex was looking £100.00 for crafts and a minimum of £200/300 for everything else.

    Now I know why some stall holders charge riduculous prices!
    hi i am doing ballywalter and have paid £150 for it, i organised it with alex berry (she) it is a 10ft by 10ft space
    are you saying that i could have got it cheaper?

    Sorry I dont know if you could have got it Ballywalter cheaper but £150 is alot of money as apparently it is only a 1 day show. Thanks for letting me know Alex is a female must watch out and listen at next show I go to as I would like to meet her maybe she would be interested in taking on a business partner and I could give up my full time job!

    im back woohoo need get that list printed off and start ringing my god is big. sinead hope all goes well chic.

    harleygirl did yiou get my form i posted before i went on hols jus checking as few parcels went missing
  • Hi folks - Im back too but as you can see my name has changed! I lost the password for Supermum 2008 and despite emailing MSE for a WEEK they have never come back to me, so I have had to start all over again, despite my 2 lovely gold stars :-( BUT if they do eventually come back to me I will go back to SuperMum2008 quick smart!

    Anyway, how did everyone find last weekend? We did Regent and Holi - both were pretty good, not our best, but ok for this time of year I suppose. Sounds like you are all busy this weekend - we have nothing booked but I might try and sneak in somewhere on Saturday...feeling the pace a bit at the mo!

    Belle - how was your break?!
    Im knitty, Im nutty, but I dont know anyone called Nora. :p
