I did 2 shows on the weekend, one in a local school and one at the Cadbury Hilton. They insisted on their own tables and table cloths where mine is a bit smaller with a black floor length cloth. I took a photo just in case you were interested. :thumbs:

I did reasonably well but not as good as I was expecting at the Hilton... mainly because they didn't advertise the event!!!!! t00ssers.

Is the lady behind you selling comics?! Sorry it wasn't as fruitful as you may have hoped - your pens are first-class and deserve to sell well.

It wasn't a complete flop, I did sell half a dozen or so but it could have been so much better. I've got 3 more that I've booked up at the last moment to do before Christmas although one of them which is every weekend from now till Christmas might just take all I've got as they expect 10000 people through the door. I've only booked up one day for this though as I couldn't make pens like Neil does.

Plenty to choose from Paul. I don't like the way the organisers have set the tables out

:thumbs:Vic:thumbs:

No me neither Vic I guess it was because they didn't fill the room or had it spread too thinly as it was over 3 rooms.
