First day at Oxford Castle Craft Market

Hi all,

So it was my first day at Oxford Castle Craft Market.

What a day!

Having a stall outside was a first too.

For most stall holders being outside does pose a few problems, wind and rain, and being out in all weathers.

Today was one of those day, from the start of the day the wind was a cause for concern, a few stalls had there contents blown around, and around lunchtime it rained, this was just a shower, but it was accompanied by some wind. Fortunately for me the stall has canvas sides and back with a pull down canopy over the front. As I say the first shower was mild in relation to the next, at one stage during the torrential downpour I noticed that people were standing in the restaurant opposite my location taking photos of the sheets of water that seperated us, it was absolutely awful.

And to cap the whole day off I sold one vial of Cedarwood essential oil for a £1.

I’m at Kelmscott Memorial Hall tomorrow!

On Friday I’ll be at Oxford Castle again, I’m a glutton for punishment!

Speak again soon
