Today I used my camera to picture some of the things I did, just to show a day in my life, but what I discovered was that I made sure I had something to do, just so I could take pictures of it.

Walk along the River Nethan, on Tuesday 24th April 2012, the weather was good, but the clouds in the sky would not let the light through, but I was happy by the results.

See over on the right for more pictures from this day, River Nethan at the Kerse

Well the Edinburgh stall was well attended, but I never got a look in! It was Vintage stall event and that is not what i sell !
I was that keen to get into Edinburgh that I never payed attention to the event!
Well better luck next time, but I have a contact for as I would call it “main stream” type stalls in Edinburgh, but will have to think better this time,

cheers from Matt

ADVERTISING We have hired 2 PR’s who will be taking care of street posters, handing flyers out and flyering cars in the local and surrounding area. 1000 flyers and 100 posters will be circulated for this event. We have also decided to post an advert in the Extra again, we did it for the Xmas Whimsy and it seems to be a successful way of getting people through the door! If you have any other ideas please do let us know. Some of you have your own shops… if you don’t mind us dropping flyers off to you, that would be wonderful ENTERTAINMENT We are looking forward to the return of our live bands at this next whimsy This always sets a lovely atmosphere for shoppers and stall holders. The music will be background music so don’t worry… your ears are safe! THE VENUE We are in the process of getting quotes for big heater blowers, which we will DEFINITELY have at the March event. Looking forward to a warm cosy hall. The hall is a massive space and has space for 58 stalls. If you have rails to take, please let us know so that we can allocate extra space for you!
