It's 5.30 am... and we are up and getting ready to leave for Cambridge.
Lucky we only do a couple of markets a month for the next 7 months or so. I loath getting up this early.
Right, I better get a move on, put me face on, some clothes, bla bla bla. Catch ya later.
Might not be a sunrise photo as it's cloudy out there. We had some rain overnight, so hoping like hell it's buggered off now.
ONWARD...
. When we arrived in Cambridge it was drizzling quite heavily... BUGGER!
BUT, by the time we got the gazebo up it had stopped, and the sun came out.
Which meant we could have more stuff out.
ABOVE: It's now 8 am and we are all set up, waiting for people to arrive.
8.34 am... its clouded over again. Hoping like hell it doesn't rain. People are slowly trickling in. I'm hungry, might have a hot dog 'n' chips soon.
2 pm, and we are home.
We should have stayed in bed.
It wasn't a good day, just no people, and those who did come were not spending money. Several Stall holders didn't even make their stall fee back, which was only $20!
We made ONE decent sale, but that's all.
Long weekends might not be the best time to do a market eh?
Oh well, no one can say we don't try.
We are now going to just relax for the remainder of the day, put our feet up and maybe even take a cat nap.
Now we are home again, and contemplating a quiet evening, and EARLY to bed.
I'm knackered.
Probably not as much as other people, sorry other people.
EVER felt like you had just had a 'Penny Drop' moment, and things just add up all of sudden? Yeah, I've been feeling like that this evening... putting one and one together over a situation, and possibly finally understanding why.
Cryptic I know, but that's all I'm gunna say.
I'm feeling very flat now.
I MIGHT be wrong... but might not be too.
It's now 9 pm and I'm staying up for a bit longer, I really want to get into bed and fall asleep quickly, not toss and turn for an hour or more.
Catch ya tomorrow.
Hope you have no rain and good sales!
ReplyDeleteHope you are selling lots! And have great weather. Laurie
ReplyDeleteGood luck with the weather and sales! Your stall looks amazing, as always xo

ReplyDeleteOops too quick off the mark for a change 😴
ReplyDeletesorry to hear market was not really worthwhile so
Maybe the time of year on a long weekend,like you say ,
It’s neat the new machine is working so well
Enjoy your r&r for rest of the day,exactly what we’re trying to do here as well,
Cheers 🥂
Disappointing for you but glad to see you have been so productive and enjoying your new machine.
ReplyDeleteOh ya, we might be close in the "knackered" category today. It was my first full day on set. Which is 12 hours on set, 1 hour there, 1 hour back, and 20 minute shopping stop. So 14+ hours. Now, legally I get 8 hours off befre having to be back on set. Hopefully tomorrows call time is later - at least for me... The only prop first thing is a clock radio - and it's already there!
ReplyDeleteSweet dreams chris 😴
ReplyDeleteHow disappointing for the marriage for you. I would have the it would be busy as it was a long weekend
ReplyDeleteLol at the 'auto correct' !
DeleteYes I have had that Penny Drop moment & the conclusion drawn is typically correct.
ReplyDeleteLol auto correct is a pain. I gave up sending messages because it takes too long to correct them. Lillies hair is gorgeous. My mum had same coloring. This time next week I will have a bandage on my right eye! Not excited, never lol.kj
