Hey, came through Blaby earlier, and they've already closed down the roads for the street fair - it's looking good, so good luck to all those that will be selling there tomorrow!

[penchanted]

closeing down of street

Yes They were closing it down last night as i was putting posters on streetlights! I dont know much about the stalls they havnt been featured I would of had one if id of known! they didnt advertise it! i reamber someone said once before they had a hotdog stall and fairground rides and that was it, its fallen right though as people will see the advert for the craft fair on sunday.

regarding posters havent looked at this board until now sorry!!

it went ok

It went ok, but id never organize one again, so much work for the little you get from it, i was dissapointed with the attendence, as id worked my socks off for months, with adverts in the leicester mercury courier, banners on the roads, leaflet handing out and posting through doors, my space and facebook,

but a good thing can be taken from this blaby also do a famers market and they advertise that to the hilt and they didnt have much custom either.

i want to say dorry to all those lovley people who attented, but all i can say is i did my best and more.

happy christmas and hopefuly the new year will look brighter sales wise.

Sammie thanks for all your hard work, I'm just sorry it wasn't a better day for us all. The few people that did come through the doors just seemed to walk straight round and buy very little! Just one of those days sadly. Don't let it put you off.
