Looking back on the Summer 0f 2022
- Monday the 2nd May saw our return to an Incredible Ickwell May Day and what a magnificent day it was. We got there early, set up and relaxed, awaiting customers to arrive around lunchtime. They arrived early, at 10:00 am and we were kept busy all day; Brilliant! We sold out of Lucky Dips, Lucky Mugs and Quiz Sheets. The Golf Game and Skittles kept busy all day. The book sales, bric-a-brac and jigsaws went well too.
- 11th June Found us at Sandy Carnival and a good time was had by all. It was sunny, warm and well attended, we had a choice of Lucky Dip, Flying Chicken, Quiz Sheets, Marbles in the jar, Name the unicorn and bric-a brac.
- 9th July It was a very hot and sunny day at Langford Fête; perhaps too early to call it exceptional; except the Flying Chickens decided that they were homing pigeons and three of our customers won £10 prizes. I think that is exceptional!
- 16th July - - Gothic Mede School Fête - another hot and sunny day with skittles, Lucky Mugs, Lucky Dips and our Logo Quiz
- 10th September - Potton - The weather is changing. - Today we had thick clouds, scorching hot sun and one very heavy shower. We also had Lucky Mugs, Lucky Dip, Bric-a-Brac, Logo Quiz Sheets together with a busy afternoon.
- 17th September Gamlingay - An excellent end to the season. A sunny day with a strong wind, building up from a slow start to a busy afternoon. We had our usual Lucky Mugs, Lucky Dip and Quiz Sheets which all went well. We also had our Flying Chickens, which if you remember, played at homing pigeons last time they were out, back in July. This time they remembered who they were and and only one landed in the basket for a ten pound prize. Everyone who was there tells me it was the perfect flight, they all knew it was going to land in the basket from the very moment it took off.
