Lincoln Xmas Market...cancelled

Picture postcard pretty outside. Won't post a pic because you are probably overwhelmed with images of snow. Yes it's a another bloomin' winter fantasia out there this morning!

Yes and I am a little fed up with it because our big event -the Lincoln Christmas Market- has been cancelled. We've been busy making lots of stock and have been steeling ourselves for the big effort of getting over to Lincoln to set up and work the long cold weekend. But now we are stuck in the house feeling frustrated and annoyed. Hopefully the weather will improve soon so make the best of the rest of the month.

Naturally we are a little worried given the bleak picture of the economy painted by politicians and papers. But I suspect that the situation is not as bad as it appears and that there are still plenty of people out there interested in buying reasonably priced craft items from British crafters. I believe that more and more people would prefer to buy locally made goods rather than stuff [that sounds the right word to me - stuff ] mass produced in China.

I'm off for a walk through the woods now before I start ranting. I shall take my camera. See if I can get some inspirational snaps!

p.s. She's got me writing on here so she can get on with the real work.
