I hadn't thought about paper sacks, I'll ask the person who brings them.

Are they for the elephant poo? ;)

No.  They are for the wonderful super crop of potatoes I shall be havesting.

;D

Good wishes to you for every success  I know how much hard work and organising goes into these events. Usually a good day is enjoyed by all. Pity you are too far away from us.  My bus pass wont take me that far and back in a day.

Don't think they'll be many blokes there, what with it being the cup final.   :-X :P

Yeah but think of all the women who will want to get out of the house away from the footie.Don't forget to ask for some spendin money while the men are in a good mood.

Just a reminder for anyone who is thinking of coming tomorrow.

(we have plenty of potato sacks)

Glad you have the sacks.  Remind me is the parking easy?  I can't walk far.  Have Blue badge.

Parking is so easy so you won't have to worry

As Shirl says, parking is easy.  Parking will be on the site near the gates and it's just a very short walk up our main drive to the stalls.  I'm not putting the potato sacks out to begin with because they go very quickly.  If you ask one of the stallholders to point me out to you I'll get them.  (or look out for a short, fat woman trying to do ten things at once  ;))

Thanks.  Please save me some sacks.  I am the tall elderly looking one who always (according to friends) looks lost.

Nice to meet you tomatoada

I've just got home and I am a bit tired.  No I'm not, I'm exhausted!  But before I collapse I just wanted to tell you all that we made close on £1000!  This included the Cream Tea, Jenny's Jams, Shirl's Bric a Brac and Shirl's glass paintings and the plants.  We have never made this much before and we are naturally thrilled.

We sold most of the plants apart from lots of tomatoes but we did have hundreds.  Less tomatoes next year, and more courgettes, aubergines and squash.

The weather stayed ok-ish apart from the wind but at least it didn't rain.  If the photos are any good I'll put some up on our website later.

Brilliant, glad the weather stayed ok  ;D

Some fish and chips and a few glasses of wine and I will be as good as well (nearly) new

What a tremendous result for all your hard work. I prescribe a very large glass of your favourite tipple to celebrate.

Very well done to all concerned. Were there many men there?
You'll all sleep well tonight. Try & have a lie in Betty ;).

Well done you must all be thrilled and thoughly deserve to have made that much money, what an acheivement :)
