Todays Craft Fair

The weather was very kind to us today on the craft market.We got down there at 7.40am to get set up.
Bill had been busy for a few hours the day before making new bubble wrap bags for some of the paintings.
We soon got into the swing of things and the paintings were hung in no time.
The morning was pretty quiet, which was good as it gave us the chance to catch up on all the gossip from the regular stall holders.
It would seem we made the right decision not to do the craft fairs during the winter months-it has been cold and wet and windy up there, and haven't missed anything!
As soon as lunchtime came it got busy and we had a great time.One of the stall holders bought a gift voucher for her father as a surprise 60th birthday pressie.
His birthday is just after my Bills in May, so we will see him sometime after that.
One customer was really happy to see us-she had been going up to the craft market looking for us every month since Oct.!!! She had picked up a leaflet from me previously and had mislaid it-couldn't remember the name and wasn't on the Internet.
She has gone away with a business card and a leaflet this time, we will be hearing from her soon.
We went for a great meal tonight -well recommend it.The Traveller's Rest near Craven Arms.They do a special deal of 3 courses for just £10 each Mon --Thursday.
We couldn't fault it at all.Great choice of starters-we both had prawn cocktail followed by roast beef for bill and Roast pork for me.I had some of the best stuffing Ive ever tasted with mine-it really was tasty.
There was about 10 veg's to choose from and homemade Yorkshire puddings too.
We really did struggle to eat it all.
But when the waitress bought the dessert menu we just had to try to fit a pudding in!
Bread and butter pudding with cream ws lovely-I couldn't finish mine-but I tryed really hard to-Bill just about managed his.
Back on the diets tomorrow--I think being out in the fresh air all day gave us an appetite today.
