Surrey County Show

Well another event another soaked fairy! Having travelled to Guilford on the Sunday to set up our fairy grottos, we awoke Monday morning to heavy rain and wind. I was very anxious whether our grotto would have stayed up, thankfully when we arrived on site it was standing unlike alot of others!
Within five minutes of unloading in the rain we were soaked despite waterproofs and wellies, feeling very disheartned Sapphire suggested we try to move trading spots to inside the shopping marquee. A very wise choice, despite the fact that even that was leaking we did manage to set out our fairy stock and sell lots of tutus and other fairy essentials to the customers brave enough to venture out on a horrible bank holiday Monday.

I didn't get many photos of our customers as people were taking their goodies home rather than wearing them, due to the rain mostly I think, however I did manage to snap a couple of customers!
