This was the 2nd antiques fair at Bakewell Showground this year, and what a fair it was. I had arrived and set up my stall by about 8.30am, and would have been happy to have stood there all day having not taken any money just to look at the surroundings, they are breath taking, and the weather, well was absolutely magnificent ! There was probably about 120 - 130 stalls at a guess, but still a huge immprovement on the last fair there. On arrival, I was greeted by a one of the senior event staff, although young in age, but clearly knows what she is doing and how to look after the customers, and was welcoming, friendly and polite, and always smiling. ( it is refreshing to see compared to the growing frowns we see everywhere now). She then directed me to a gentleman in a high vis vest who then asked me to wait a moment while the next person along directed the car infront into its pitch. After being directed down to my space, the gentleman parking the cars was also one of the main organisors, and I think clearly, if you want a job doing properly, you do it yourself. He was fabulous, clear, polite and helpful, especially when I needed extra help in reversing with my trailer, he even offered to do it for me !!! Yes my driving is that bad !!! As at all fairs, you get the typical traders doing the rounds, and then at about 10am, this sleep little village comes alive and the public really start to arrive, and before you know it, the fair is in full swing, and its shoppers and buyers galore !! I sold the things I wanted to sell, and more, and then some more still. It was great. Glorious weather and lots of buying public, a sellers dream come true. Cant wait for the next one !!!!
