    It was great, wasnt it Savvy!! I got some great bargains too.:j Sorry I didnt get it together to PM you before or we could have met up.

    I went both days and got loads of goodies. I won some great stuff on the tombola. I have enough yaoh lipbalms to last me 2 years lol! :D

    I cant wait till next year's vegan fayre. It gets bigger every year. I think there were 10,000 people through the gates this year.

    I went on Saturday and met up with some of the guys from veggieboards.com - it was great! The sad part was, I bought a vegan sherry trifle and couldn't eat it all - half went in the bin :(

    They had the lipbalms (and other stuff) on the BOGOF stall next to the tombola - you could get 2 for £2. PM me your addy & I'll post you a couple as I have too many honestly! :rotfl:I bought some, but then I won loads.

    I didnt try that Yabba stuff. Was it nice? I ate too much.:rolleyes:

    LOL cheers for that icon10.gificon14.gif

    Yeah I like the Yabba products, quite a different texture and really handy for camping as it doesn't have to be kept in the fridge!

    Ooh, I wish I'd read this thread earlier. I'm a newbie here, but had some fun at the Vegan Fayre with Badger Lady and company.

    Is Yabba really Yagga, perhaps? We tried something with that name in the corner stall in the tent. I've been interested in it, because I see ads for it in magazines frequently, but I've never been able to find it in the store. It was pretty yummy!

    I snagged a Yaoh lipbalm too...a blueberry one! And we had vegan crepes and some Moroccan food and that fab rice "ice cream".

    It was very fun, although I must admit that I'm glad we were leaving when we did. It was starting to get a bit well, let's just say rowdy. :) Lots of beer, lots of litter, um..yeah. :p
