Our village Christmas Fair.
Hello. It's been a busy Saturday here. I was at the Village Hall for 9.30am to set up the Chat and Craft stall, at the Christmas Fair. We were in our usual spot just inside the door. The curtain rail is handy for hanging our banner. Pat was there early so we set everything up together.
Now we are ready for the crowds. I took some photo's before everyone arrived. The hall looks a bit empty but half an hour later it was choca full of visitors.Everybody at their station, waiting for the rush.
I stood on the stage for a birds eye view. The man with the chain around his neck is Craig, our Parish Council Chairman.
These lovely ladies are four of our crafty club members. Carol, Avril, Hilary, and Ann. They were manning the Village Hall stand.
Craig over there is talking to Jackie who is promoting her Slimming World club. They meet here every Tuesday morning. I wonder if Craig is signing up, ha ha. The cat rescue stall is looking full as usual.
A close look at some of the stalls. All very Christmassy, a lot of hand made gifts to buy.
The very popular WI cake stall was looking scrumptious. Yes, I did buy a couple of items. An apple muffin, and a choc chip cookie. I know, naughty food, but it is for charity. That's my excuse.
This smiley lady was doing a tombola for her charity. Most of the stalls were run by volunteer charity people.
This was my absolute favourite. Felt cactus plants. Gill makes them for fun, some of the cash she takes goes to buy more materials, some she donates to the hospice. Aren't they just fab.
Entertainment was by the singing school children, a local dance troupe did some disco dancing, and the village choir serenaded us with well known songs.
So, how did our stall do? We sold quite a lot, but most of it was Janet's makes. Her embroidery is perfect, her colours and choice of fabrics is top class. She will have a nice surprise when she comes back from her holidays. Me, I sold only eight bags and a few bits and bobs. Bit disappointing, but a lot of people said they already have one of my bags, and it is still going strong. Suppose I should be pleased, my fault for making a good job of them, ha ha. Will have to think of a new idea for next year.
Now I'm chillin with a bottle of Irish cider, the last 'out of date' one that my friend gave me. Two and a half years out of date ain't bad.
Thanks for all the walking updates, if you haven't yet checked in you can do so at any time. Just go back to the post on the 1st of December.
Thanks for popping in, enjoy your Sunday. The snow has gone here, we'll catch up soon.
Toodle pip.
