Update 2

 

I’m in between jobs and have an hour and a half window before we set the hall up for the show. There’s a children’s activity day booked in the hall today and they finish at 3pm
That means we have to set up the whole show in three hours 
The exhibits start coming in at 6pm
Yesterday we has 220 exhibits entered
By some good fortune today, we have now have just over 400 total 
How good is that?

    Just shows how much the show was loved and has been missed. That i a remarkable number of entries - good luck stewarding. Is that another job that had to be done? And by you? Polishing the trophies! (One of the worst jobs has always been getting the trophies back from the last winners....) Have a great day, regardless of weather. And best of luck with the entries, and most especially yours. Of course!

    1. I think you have struck on something there, covid and isolation has changed many people who are thirsty for contact and community ….
