On Saturday we attended Partney fair this was the third time we had been and so far every year has been an improvement. The fair its self was the village's 930th with records of the original ones appearing in the doomsday book. Its a lovely traditional fair with a real village atmosphere.
Like the week before at Gunby it was a little breezy setting up but we expected this after experiencing windy conditions here before. I felt the stall looked nice with things laid out well and the bunting displayed at the side. We sold a good mix of items and people seemed very impressed with what was on offer. It was lovely to meet customers old and new.
Again the Shepard's crooks were working well this one displaying the new felt toadstool decorations these are the first of a new autumn/woodland collection I'm designing.
Plenty of entertainment was provided at the fair including two sets from Horncastle Ukulele Group or "HUG" as their t-shirts state. Who played a good selection of sing along songs. And circus skills and comedy knights from
Earthbound misfits who scoured the field looking for damsels in distress and dragons to slay.
A closer look at the new felt toadstools. Check back soon to see which other designs have been added to the collection.
Next Fair is on Sunday the 4th of September
Wragby Show & country fayre.
