Kim's Emporium was mentioned somewhere earlier in this thread. http://www.facebook.com/#!/pages/Kims-Emporium/142302509190643 I e-mailed her but I'm not getting much of a response. I'm put off slightly by the location. Do you know if there is free car parking close at hand? What was the trade like for the first fair?

Hi. Kims is in a great wee spot. Once people know shes there every month. The cafes a pull too the councils getting behind her too. I did well enough to go back again. As for the free car parking lisburn is a city and like every where there are charges. Every one unloaded and then parked elswhere. Kim may no some where free there is a hihg rise carpark right beside it about 70p per hour i think theres a charity carpark at the health center on a sat. You could unload park and walk back. Bout 5 mins. Kims been very busy. And has 4 kids and works. So im sure she will get back to you. Have u tried talking to her on facebook. Need any more help please ask and if i can i will be glad too.

I'm pretty new to this and was looking some advice on whether or not to do Ballydugan Fair at the Mill, Downpatrick, as the stall price is £35.00 Thanks

I have CFS so the walking bit is a no brainer for me unfortunately. I think I'm going to have to stick to fairs that have close parking facilities and shorter time frames until I get on my feet. Thanks anyhow!
