Title: Groaning table
Post by: corrie on May 13, 2011, 08:22:34 PM
This weekend is the first show of the year for me. I've always subscribed to the "more is more" when it comes to display & fingers x'd that it holds :mwaha:
I've been prewarned that the field I'm to be in (though it's in a marquee) is very wet...wellies are definately a must!
Wish me luck  :buttrf: Table will look a bit more organised on the day.

just thinking about you when I saw all the rain we're getting - hopefully it's all over this side of the river (as usual) so that you don't start to grow webbed feet :mwaha:

The good folks of Argyll did us proud today & supported their local businesses. Actually despite threatening rain most of the day we only had 2 showers. Good to see familiar faces back buying more products & takings well up on last year which as you can imagine I was very happy with.

The tent has doubled in size since last time

Wow Corrie ,

The set up looks fab , I love your labeling , simple yet effective, your table must smell divine and they would have to have been as blind as a bat to miss that awsome banner , good luck on today , Im orrrfff for afternoon tea in a lovely village called Bramhall.http://www.indulgencebramhall.co.uk/ (http://www.indulgencebramhall.co.uk/)

Then off to this smoke house - only one in the area , I do envy scots sometimes and their smoke houses.  ( well I was going to go but I'm glad I checked the opening times   ::))

Another good day, not as good as yesterday but very respectible. Driech kinda day, never stopped raining so the fact anyone came out to a muddy puddly field is kudos to them  :buttrf:

Well done Corrie.  A good weekend like that gives you more energy for the next one, I hope that one is even better.

Your sales are speaking for themselves on the quality of your product and as you say, you have repeat customers. You are building up your rep girl. Go girl :buttrf:
