Rural Craft marquee

Another show photo ….I keep forgetting to take a current photo of the day.
This lady was being interviewed for Cumbria radio, she looks very poised while doing it!
I once bought some of these wood flowers, they are rather attractive, no idea where they are now though!

Three good things:
1. I’ve been to the hospital to have my hip X-rayed. I walked down the same corridor I used to walk down over sixty years ago…I’m sure it was the same flooring too! A very different hospital from then….it was so busy today!
2. I’ve sold almost all my things on FB market place.
Someone bought the rug this morning then the nicest young man came & bought the two vintage standard lamps & the rise & fall kitchen light.
3. I told him he was a credit to his parents…polite. Arrived on time & the hardest working young man with a very sensible attitude towards money & buying his house & getting second hand bargains online.

Like seeing your show photos. The flowers look interesting..
Good to get rid of the surplus stuff to someone that needs it.. and appreciates it.

@gijsje I was so tempted to take him into the room where we have all the surplus stuff stored & ask him if there was anything else he wanted….him & his little family sounded great. Quite young but risen to foreman in an engineering company…he was very proud of that.

@julzmaioro He did appreciate it…he only brought enough money for what he came for but when I asked him if he fancies a rise & fall light that is for sale he jumped at it & did a bank transfer there & then.

So lovely going round the show ground with you - I did love to go round all the different marquess on the show ground but that seems such a long time ago now !
Glad you had your hip scan today - hope all goes well for you ! I have my annual check up with my orthopedic surgeon ( or his side kick ! ) next week - haven't had face to face for 2 yrs and said I would have both shoulders scanned this year - one is giving quite a bit of pain !!
Nice to get rid of your excess goods like this -I have never tried fb market place, over the years I have donated mine to one of the charity shops !

I like a good craft show, the flowers look interesting. Yes I had good luck selling things on marketplace too.

After the gap in your annual calendar with Covid it's lovely to see all the interesting photos from the show ground.
Good for you getting your items sold on Facebook. I think you are an inspiration 😂

@beryl We have loads of stuff for the charity shop too Beryl. I have been sorting it today. Three piles, charity, sell if possible & things for the loft to keep. It’s going less!

@sarah19 aw thanks Sallie, I just want to get it all put away out of sight.! I’m in the mood now so must keep on!!

@busylady I hate selling stuff….I never know who to let have it…the first one who enquires & keep the others hanging on or first come first served….some don’t turn up & then the others lose interest…anyway only a picture still on there still….might be a charity donation too yet!

The man with the mic looks quite angry! He may be going to hit her on the head with the mic lol! Hope your hip is ok?

Great capture

@lyndamcg I think that Mic man has a sore shoulder from holding this long pole! It took me a whole year to get rid of stuff from our big house and going in to a much smaller house. Don't know how I did it!

She does look poised

The flowers look interesting. Good that you are able to sell your unwanted items.

Very nice shot. The lady looks very relaxed for the interview. Lovely scene. Must have been a lovely event.
September 15th, 2021  
Very cool indeed and lovely about your sales.
September 15th, 2021  
A super candid capture

What a mix of old and new! Great shot. Cathy and I have got shot of a lot of stuff on FB too... last year before moving out she had a turf-out and within hours we had a little stack of fivers! She and Bobby have virtually furnished their home with FB or Trash Nothing... !

I have never seen anything like those wood flowers. What a great idea. So clever.
September 15th, 2021  
I always love a young person who is punctual snd polite. I hope your x-ray provides the answer to what the problem is!

"I walked down the same corridor I used to walk down over sixty years ago", how did that feel Pat , surreal possibly ?

Nice story telling image
September 15th, 2021  
Hopefully you’ll get some relief from hip pain!
September 16th, 2021  
@phil_howcroft Weird Phil, it seemed narrower but still as long & lots of different corridors leading off now. The rubber floor looked just the same though….😳
September 16th, 2021  
Hopefully you can get some answers about your hip. After seeing how well Harry is doing you will be hoping they can do the same for you.
