Garage Safari - 7th October 2007 How was it for you? I refer of course to the Garage Safari and Charities' Table Top Sale. We had a great day, the sun shone, browsers came and went and some bougnt and of course the garage got sorted out. We discovered the colour of the walls and that Uncle Bill, missing since 1958, must have gone off to the Congo and had not gone to look for the nail tin in the garage, as Aunt Bertha had always claimed!We would like to thank the map sponsors free distribution proved very successful. By the end of the day most legitimate participants had sold at least some of their nick-knacks and the Village Hall had to send out for more supplies as the hungry browsers descended like locusts. Hmm, those Bacon Butties! The only sour note to the day, from the organisers' point of view, was the person who opened her garage and rode on the back of the advertising but refused -quite abusively, to pay on the day. Next year we are planning to hold two more safaris and for each we also want to incorporate a Table Top Sale in the Village Hall along with their catering miracles. For those who like plenty of notice we are planning one for early April and the other for early October. There will be some tables in the Hall for private individuals in addition to the Charity Tables. If you have any ideas of how we can improve the advertising, organisation or anything else please drop a note in at the address at the end of this piece*. For instance, would you prefer a Saturday or Sunday safari?
