Any feedback from Gilnahirk anyone? I didn't go coz seemed loads of jewellery already booked in so please nobody tell me there were only 1 or 2!!! Headmistress of DS school agreed for me to bring tiaras in for 1st communion girls so am v pleased and hopeful for a few sales! Next fair for me is Harleygirl's am really excited bout that one as we know how much effort has gone in (big up for Harleygirl!) and there won't be 16 jewellers!

there was only 3 jewellery ladies. I was disappointed although i did sell a good bit i was expecting a bigger turn out and for the price of stalls id suggest they lower ot for next year. Saying that i had a natter with supermum and co as usual lol met scot and fie89 think thats right sorry of not and gingerrosies popped up. So when you havethe chat it isnt as bad.

Highlight was my skirt ripped and wasborrowing pins from emma to pin it no joys so apologies to anyone who recieved an eyefull lol

Lol Belle! Sounds like it would have been worthwhile but last couple of schools were overrun with jewellery so didn't bother - typical of me, wrong decision!! Still, nice to hav a weekend off!
