I spent a very chilly day next to 2 Heilan' coos, have to say they were very well behaved, only wee wee's, none of the other  ;) They pulled Santa into the garden centre in a trailer, then were parked up next to me. I got to be very fond of these 2, found that they didn't like lavender handcream, nor chocolate muffins but quite liked milky tea!
Hamish had quite the nicest eyes I've ever seen on a male of any species and eyelashes to die for gals  ;) (sorry Scott, it's over)
Anymoo, I digress, I had a pretty good day, my penultimate this year, off to the big city tommorrow for mulled wine and mince pies and maybe sell a soap or 3.
And...here's my new banner, which I love  :buttrf:

There are some purdee lookin' cows! I can see why you choose Hamish over Scott  :mwaha:

Now, exactly how did you find out they didn't like lavendar hand cream? Given they don't have hands an' all?

Story of my life Corrie - man meets woman, woman meets cow, man rejected! Can't tell you how many times that has happened - still, It was good while it lasted.

Your new banner is excellent! What material is it, and was it V expensive?

I see Morag's a blonde - not so common a colour.

Like the new banner - and a goodly looking stall.

I hand it on my hands and he licked my hand then stuck his tongue up his nose...great trick  ;)
 :mwaha: @ Scott, sorry I could have broke that a bit more gently :-*
£18 for the banner offa ebay ;) It's a kinda placcy coated material, goes out in all weathers, bit like myself!

oOO Gorgeous moos Hamish looks scrumptious. Personally though II cant understand how you could choose a beast who sticks his tongue up his nose over Scott.(You sure he wasnt just trying to have a sniff?) :mwaha: :mwaha:

Banner sounds a brill buy, stall as alwyas ..lovely

Forget da moos, I'm loving that banner!!! Must get one sorted for myself next year. Glad it went well though.  :)

Both the cows were born at the farm and are quite used to people, can't say I've seen many blonde ones either.
The banner matches with biz cards and website.

That seems a very good price for the banner - excellent! I assumed that this sort of specialist printing would be prohibitively expensive -  I suppose competition brings the price down.

Your SA fees are going up!

You qualify fo free SAs!

That's where you find the banner guy. Be warned, he wasn't the most helpful person in the world but I got there eventually. The finished quality is fine he just has very poor people skills, though his feedback seems pretty good  :-\ This is a 6ft x 2ft one, but think I might get one of the big stands up vertically ones for my outdoors fairs next year.

Emmm, probably best not to mention that I can do that too.


Oh bugger!!

Lovely banner Corrie, meant to say! I got a small one made by Vistaprint (only cos it was a freebie!) .. they did a special offer and I thought why the hell not, I might even use it one day! Plastic coated something or other.  Might be worth a look see for others?

Very cute coos  :buttrf:  Poor Scott though?!?!  :(

C, the stall looks fantastic!  I noticed lil' Lomon sitting nice and proud.  That little easel looks really effective.  All the products seem to have a good home so you must have got the table planning/layout spot on.  Did it help encourage visitors to your stall having the coos right next to you? The banner looks great.  I bet you did really well  :)

Poor, poor Scott. I think you could have been a bit more diplomatic Corrie in your rejection of him.  :mwaha: Mind you the way I feel about human males I too would have picked hamish, at least he wanted a better sniff of your handcream unlike my male.
They are gorgeous coos though. I want one and a Dexter as well, maybe I'll save up and buy one.

The stall looks lovely as always and nice banner too.

My daughter can stick her tongue up her nose an all, mind you she can be a right coo when she wants to ::)

A beautiful banner Corrie, real attention grabber, like Honey I got a free Vista print one, small and meant for indoors. I am not yet clear in my vision of what I want yet so waiting for now
I really really love your stall, I think of it when planning mine, but I've still a long way to go. I hope you dont mind,  i have put a copy on my inspiratons page

love the coos though, even if their personal habits are not perfect in public!

Love the stall and the banner Corrie!  :buttrf:
The cows are very nice too.  ;D

To save on a new thread I thought I'd use this one to show you the fantastic building I was in today. Another sucessfull day....and my last for the year, phew! Have worked every day for the last month between my regular job and shows, then there's replenishment to be done at night.
I'm bushed :P
Anyway, here's Oran Mor in the west end of Glasgow.

What a wonderful backdrop C!!!  The stall looks amazing.  What a relief if must be and you deserve a wonderful reeeeelaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx  :buttrf: :buttrf: :buttrf: :buttrf: :buttrf:

Beautiful backdrop. Glad you had a good couple of days. Feet up now!  :buttrf:

Glad you had a good day.

Lovely backdrop - and you're looking very smart too!!

Oran Mor is a beautiful building, and your stall looks lovely, Corrie. And I love the banner. Hope today was successful and that you can now relax before the holidays.  :buttrf:

Whata beautiful building. As everyone says it really sets off your stall or is it the other way round? It all looks lovley.
I hope you did well.
Thta banner is lovely too.Very peaceful and relaxing

Fab building! Don't think my friend made it along, lots of family stuff happening for her right now (the annoying family crap, not the fun family holiday stuff).  Pity cos that's a damn fine looking building and wow, what a backdrop for your stall! And look at you too *waves*!
