Suppose They Gave a Craft Fair...and Nobody Came?

[disaster_cat]

Well, once again we have been to another desolate craft fair. This time the lady running it did everything right, and the fair had always been well attended for the past seven years. This year, not even the local radio station could bring on the crowds. Most likely suspect...hint it was not the 1970's music show featuring all the worst songs of

Nice pun St Andrea's Fault ...

Sorry to hear the fair didn't go well. I'm guessing another thing you can blame is the internet. Most people shop on-line these days and don't bother going out so this probably had an impact on you guys as well.

Mercury might be in retrograde in the thermometer though did you check that?

Thanks for the input - yes I did mention the Internet in my previous post before the fair as to why I thought the local fairs were less popular. But some of them still are, just not the ones we seem to be hitting. At least the one yesterday should have some good feedback because there's a large Brigit's conference in Feb that we may be able to get a table at. Historically minded Brits and Americans are likely to buy stuff, and we aren't even sure the Heritage Center has thought about having tables for vendors.

Yes, I do think Mercury might be in retrograde in the thermometer, I'm pretty certain that Thor is having a bit of a tif with his wife, Sif because he was playing with the electric lights last night. Or perhaps he was just out hanging up Yule decorations a bit early :)

Damn. I'd heard about the Irish weather, especially on the west coast, on the news yesterday.

Are you going to the big crafts fair in Belfast? We were disappointed that it wasn't the same weekend as Yuletide. We went there two years ago; it was a nice one.
